SUMMARY:Designing for Safety: Protecting Worker Health from the Hazards of Engineered Stone
DESCRIPTION:Architects and designers play a vital role in improving worker health and safety through the selection of safer materials. Engineered stone poses a major health hazard to workers\, particularly through exposure to respirable crystalline silica. In this session\, you will gain a foundational understanding of the health risks linked to engineered stone and explore a range of safer building alternatives\, evaluating their advantages and disadvantages. You will also learn about regulatory measures underway in California and federally\, and the prohibition of engineered stone in Australia. By the end of the session\, you’ll be equipped to integrate the AIA Materials Pledge into your practice\, enabling you to make informed\, sustainable material choices that prioritize worker health and safety. \nThis course is introductory\, there are no prerequsites. \nREGISTER HERE
