Protect your investments and properties

By Emma Peterson. 

Check out this webinar that will help you understand the role of building design in loss mitigation. 

If you own a building, there are a variety of loss mitigation strategies that you might consider. These include preventative actions such as risk assessment of natural disasters and structural weak points along with proactive plans like maintenance schedules and emergency response strategies. Making sure you have a clear understanding of how to mitigate potential losses and protect your investments is key to ensuring the safety of your buildings.  

If you are unsure where to start in building a loss mitigation plan, Metal-Era is offering a free course on how building design plays a role in this. The course is designed to help everyone from architects and consultants to contractors and building owners expand their overall knowledge. 

This course takes a particular focus on the rise in natural disaster events. These events lead to insurance claims that can reach into the billions of dollars. Further the losses experienced in these events also include the loss of life. In response to these issues and concerns, there have been new standards (like ES1 and GT-1) added to international building code to make more resilient structures. But that’s just the beginning of what can be done. 

By attending this course, either online or in-person, you can learn about how specifying a roof edge is an incredibly powerful and economic way to protect lives and property. Further, the course will open attendees’ perspectives to the industry risk trends, risk from the insurers’ point of view and provide real world examples of these loss mitigation strategies.
