USGBC MA Sponsored ABX Session B44 – Mapping the Materials Universe: Lessons and Strategies

By Alexander Landa

Coming up November 15th to 17th will be ABX 2016! As part of the Northeast's largest building industry conference and tradeshow, Architecture Boston Expo, the USGBC MA Chapter will be sponsoring multiple panels this year. This year, we're hosting multiple panels, so let's take a look at Wednesday's panel, B44 – Mapping the Materials Universe: Lessons and Strategies.

Living Building Challenge teams, as well as LEED V4 teams, find a selection of high-quality, healthy products, but the range is limited. What benign, high performing products do we need to complete our projects? We explore the hardest specification sections and the most opaque market sectors, inviting discussion and exploration of the greatest challenges. Low toxicity, high performance, durability, and affordability… how can these and other factors be achieved simultaneously? How have working project teams addressed this challenge?
