Last week, NRMCA Senior Director, Building Innovations, Frank Mruk presented a 1 1/2-hour session titled Leveraging Innovation in Concrete Net-Zero Buildings at the American Institute of Architects' (AIA) Tri-State Fusion Conference held at the Hershey Lodge in Hershey, PA. The conference was sponsored by AIA state components of New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania; more than 150 architects attended the event.

The AIA has set a goal to achieve net-zero emissions in the building sector by 2040 and advocates for policies that encourage the design of energy efficient, carbon neutral buildings.
