Despite the proven benefits of using industrial construction (IC), it still only accounts for a small share of the U.S. construction market. This session will briefly review the benefits of IC and how it may be critical to tackling some of the most entrenched challenges in the construction industry today, including skilled worker shortages and safety concerns. We'll examine how the wider use of IC will impact the existing workforce—both negatively through displacement of workers, and positively through job creation, different working conditions, and younger and more diverse populations being drawn into the industry. We'll also look at what is needed to prepare the workforce to benefit from this transition, including training in needed skills. Steve Jones, Senior Director of Industry Insights Research at Dodge Data & Analytics (Dodge) will present findings from a recent study commissioned by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and conducted by Dodge and WSU.

Model-based technology can virtually identify and eliminate clashes. Unfortunately, that doesn't always translate to accurate, conflict-free layouts on the jobsite, especially when done separately by each trade contractor. New research from Dodge Construction Network shows that this traditional noncollaborative approach to jobsite layout is inherently inefficient, and frequently generates cross-trade conflicts and construction errors that cause multiple quality, safety, productivity, cost, and schedule issues. The research further shows that more-coordinated and collaborative multitrade processes greatly improve outcomes for everyone involved, especially when taking advantage of exciting new automation technologies that use model data.
