METALCON welcomed economist Alex Chausovsky of The Bundy Group to the keynote stage in Las Vegas on Oct. 22 for an insightful address focused on navigating the next phase of economic and industrial transformation.

As climate threats escalate, experts at METALCON warn that outdated codes and weak materials won’t cut it — metal construction must lead the resilience movement.

Just the talk of steel and aluminum tariffs have already manifested in missed project budgets and lost time for architects. With higher material costs on the horizon, architects are focusing on minimizing the risks of exceeding project budgets.
