Monthly Program – Sustainable Advancements in Building Materials
October 20 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm
The St. Louis Art Museum’s East Building, designed by architect David Chipperfield Architects, opened in 2013. This monumental building, a construction achievement, is 12 years old. Like the original building, built for the 1904 World’s Fair, the addition was designed to stand for a 100 years or more. Now more than a decade on, we thought it would be valuable to revisit the construction of this iconic project. In discussion with members of the 2013 project team and building material stakeholders, we will explore what new advancements in concrete and steel and construction techniques might be used if the addition was built today, given the industry’s greater focus on embodied carbon.
Participants:
Julie Bauer, Architect & Senior Lecturer, Washington University in St. Louis, Project Architect for David Chipperfield Architects for the St. Louis Art Museum East Building

Anthony Alleman, Vice President – Operations, Pepper Construction
