KAUAI2026 - Call for Abstracts
The IIBEC So Cal Chapter is seeking abstracts for presentations at the 25th Annual Hawaii Winter Wor
The theme of Hawaii workshop 2026 is: Expecting the Unexpected: Building with Flexibility. In an era of evolving climates, materials, and performance standards, adaptability has never been more critical—especially in the building enclosure sector. We invite architects, consultants, contractors, and manufacturers to share insights, research, and case studies that demonstrate how flexibility in design, detailing, materials, and execution can lead to more resilient and responsive enclosure systems. Whether addressing unforeseen site conditions, supply chain disruptions, or long-term performance demands, your expertise can help shape solutions that embrace uncertainty. Submit your abstract and be part of the conversation redefining how the industry builds smarter.
The primary workshop goal aims to provide attendees with valuable insight into the building enclosure industry including the areas of design, consulting, manufacturing, and construction. Professionals from the roofing/waterproofing consulting, architecture, engineering, manufacturing and construction community are invited to submit abstracts for presentations. IIBEC So Cal Chapter is an AIA- and IIBEC-approved education provider. Attendees will receive up to 12.5 learning unit hours or CEHs. Submitted abstracts should pertain to modern developments in building enclosure design and construction, including but not limited to the following:
· Roofing, horizontal or below-grade waterproofing, air barriers, fenestration systems, exterior cladding
· Industry trends or hot topics
· Emerging technologies, construction methods and building materials
· Advances in investigation and testing techniques
· Building sustainability and resiliency
· Constructability
The deadline for submitting presentation proposals for consideration is Friday September 12, 2024. Proposals should be submitted as a 250-word (maximum) abstract and presenter bio. Presentations to include project examples.
Any questions about presentation submissions, exhibitor tabletop display, and program sponsorship opportunities should be sent to hawaii2026@socaliibec.org .
