We are excited to welcome over 13,500 industry professionals and more than 425 exhibiting companies mak-ing this our largest BUILDEX ever. Despite the unpredictable economy, the industries involved with BUILDEX con-tinue to join together for a few days in February to network with peers, share ideas and drive business forward.
Various new elements have been added to this year’s BUILDEX. Workplace 20/20 is both the Interior Design Keynote Panel as well as a 2000 square foot feature on the tradeshow floor. Architecture Day in co-operation with AIBC is on Thursday and includes four amazing seminars plus an art installation. In partnership with BUILDEX, more than a dozen BC Wood members are exhibiting in a 2500 square foot pavilion area near the Wine Bar and Bistro. And, there is a new interactive presentation area on the tradeshow floor known as LIVE at BUILDEX. We hope you enjoy the new innovations.
Returning for 2013 are special events such as the ICBA CEO Breakfast, the IDC/IIDA Leaders Breakfast, the VRCA Construction Keynote Panel, the Real Estate Market Outlook for Vancouver, the BOMA BC luncheon and educa-tional sessions from PAMA. There are also seminar streams in co-operation with CHBA BC, NKBA, BCCA, & VRCA. There is something for everyone!
And as always, BUILDEX Vancouver presents the largest tradeshow floor of its kind in Western Canada. Please make time to explore the show and benefit from all the exhibits we have to offer.
Finally, we would like to extend a BIG THANK YOU to our exhibitors, sponsors, industry partners, speakers and everyone else who help make this event possible.
Thank you for joining us.

LEATRICE EISEMANEXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, PANTONE COLOR INSTITUTE AND THE EISEMAN CENTER FOR COLOR INFORMATION AND TRAINING
Colour seems to be touching everything — even those eternal neutrals like sand, beige, gray, grayed greens and taupe are often shaded and imbued with beautiful undertones. At the same time, vibrant colour is being artfully coordinated with neutrals. As a result, unify-ing context is very important. Join Leatrice Eiseman in this instructive session to find out how and where the colour to be used and, most importantly, what the outstanding colour trends and directions are as they impact commercial interiors.
WEDNESDAY // 1:00PM – 2:30PM ROOM 215
W23 • FUTURE COLOUR TRENDS: FANTASIES AND REALITIES AD
In order to create the “magic” for interiors, the colours for 2013 will need to coax and cajole, soothe or astonish, renew and replenish. At the same time, there will be the consumer’s expectation of practicality — what colours have staying power and can be relied upon as a steadying influence in unsteady times. Skillfully balanced colour palettes that play to their practical side, while satisfying their aspirations, hopes and needs for something novel will remain key to enticing the would-be consumer or client.

THURSDAY // 9:00AM – 12:00PM ROOM 208
T07 • EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION IN A PROJECT ENVIRONMENT: THE “ART” OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT CO PD
The most commonly cited reason for project failure is communication breakdown. This may be because communication is taken for granted — we all do it, right? The question is do we know how to communicate in a way that is meaningful and effective for project stakeholders and that supports the success of the project? Your success as a Project Manager is directly tied to your ability to communicate effectively and influence the stakeholders.
The purpose of this course is to increase your awareness of:
• Your own personal communication style and how you impact others as a result;• Other communication styles and how to communicate effectively with them;• Communication filters and how to recognize and overcome them;• and more!
THURSDAY // 1:00PM – 4:00PM ROOM 208
T21 • PROJECT COMMUNICATIONS MANAGEMENT FOR SUCCESS: THE “SCIENCE” OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT! CO PD
The most commonly cited reason for project failure is communication breakdown. Many times, this breakdown occurs because of poor management of communication channels, mediums and stakeholder expectations. This workshop will give you the tools needed to effectively manage communications — understanding “who needs what and when”! The Project Manager who does not know what is happening on their project, day by day, week by week is, quite frankly, a train wreck waiting to happen! You will learn the importance of status reporting and how to do it.
The purpose of this course is to increase your awareness of:
• The impact of communication planning on the success of your project.• The value of a stakeholder analysis — before you start the project.• The importance of a Role & Responsibility Matrix, (RAM), and how to develop one;• How an Information Distribution Matrix can take the stress and guesswork out of com-
municating project information.• and more!

W19 • NETWORKING IN THE AGE OF SOCIAL MEDIA PD
[ AIBC=2.0 Non-Core LUs; BOMI=2 CPDs ]
Effective networking can increase your performance and help you maximize sustainable revenue and profits, but through our increasing dependency of technology one important aspect of networking is starting to become overlooked — the Face-to-Face interaction. The Age of Social Media has started a myth that the Face-to-Face interaction is no longer neces-sary or effective in growing your business — nothing can be farther from the truth.
In this session we will discuss the fundamental difference between marketing and prospect-ing and explore the limitation Social Media platforms (Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook etc.) have on growing our business.

Leadership in Safety discusses the importance of a safety management system but also discusses what lies beyond COR, and how leadership is the key to continual improvements and more successful production and safety outcomes. This presentation looks at how trans-formational leadership (a component in human factors studies) drives better safety results and also better business results. If we can help companies shift their focus from transactional to transformational, studies show that we can help them dramatically improve their safety results and other critical business outputs.
Presenter: Jeff Lyth, Regional Safety Coordinator, BCCSA
THURSDAY // 10:30AM – 12:00PM ROOM 206 T08 • SELLING SUSTAINABILITY: HOW TO PROFIT THROUGH GREEN HOME CERTIFICATION CO GR
[ AIBC=1.5 Core LUs; BOMI=1.5 CPDs ]
Nervous about the market? Consider this: When buyers drive deals, green homes sell for more. That’s the conclusion of a survey of 1.6 million home sales in California, where, in the wake of the US market crash, certified green homes sold for an average of 9% more than comparable non-certified homes in the same communities.
We will review the data on premiums paid for certified green homes and discuss the so-called “Prius Effect,” which can help identify neighbourhoods where green premiums will be highest. This market-focused seminar will survey the various the residential certification programs available to BC builders — including Built Green®, R-2000, Energy Star for New Homes, LEED Canada for Homes, Passive House and the Living Building Challenge — and will explain the requirements and estimate the costs associated with each certification program.

[ AIBC=1.5 Core LUs; BOMI=1.5 CPDs ]
Given the rapid depletion of natural resources and rising global appetite for energy, it is crucial to quantify and monitor the raw materials and energy that go into manufacturing the products selected and specified by designers. The building industry has focused heavily on reducing operational energy while overlooking embodied energy because it is not as visible or quantifiable. As operational energy is driven down over time, embodied energy will become a comparatively higher percentage of a building’s total energy footprint, if steps are not taken to reduce the energy intensities of manufacturing processes. This panel discussion will explore the importance of product disclosures and how they can be used to track and reduce the embodied energy in building products.

WEDNESDAY // 1:00PM – 2:30PM ROOM 213 W25 • CARBON NEUTRAL BUILDINGS: RE-THINKING STANDARDS AND APPROACHES TO BETTER ACHIEVE MARKET EXPECTATIONS AND POLICY GOALS CO GR
[ AIBC=1.5 Core LUs; BOMI=1.5 CPDs ]
The City of Vancouver is aiming for all new buildings to be carbon-neutral by 2020 – many other local governments are moving in a similar direction. This panel discussion brings together views from developers, low carbon building experts, researchers, cost consultants and the City to discuss the regulatory, technical and financial implications.
Of specific reference are two research studies which propose building performance metrics for both operational and embodied energy and emissions along with a policy roadmap which establishes a mechanism which local governments can use to achieve their carbon reduction and carbon neutrality goals.
The panel is drawn from team members of an ongoing project to develop a policy framework that translates local governments’ carbon neutral policy goals into a simple, effective and fair system for building owners consistent with the business of real estate development. Panelists will present the findings from their ongoing work and will offer insights into how building regulations can be engineered to deliver embodied and operational carbon emis-sion reductions in a format that is simple, fair and measurable but also remains within the technical and financial reach of the construction market.

WEDNESDAY // 1:00PM – 2:30PM ROOM 208 W26 • THE WINNER’S CURSE: A SYSTEMS APPROACH TO WINNING MORE WORK AND INCREASING PROFITS CO PD
[ AIBC=1.5 Non-Core LUs; BOMI=1.5 CPDs ]
What is the winner’s curse? Whoever makes the biggest estimating mistake wins the job.
First, the bad news:
• Successful companies rarely “buy work” through discounting• Profitability is not the reward for hard work, good intentions, or being a “good guy”
Now, the good news:
• Profitability is the reward for smart work. This means having good systems in place.
Trying to minimize costs is always a goal when tendering contracts. And too often, contract-ors focus solely on price, adopting strategies and pricing that can kill the rewards of winning the contract. These tactics can go so far as to threaten the company’s financial health.
This seminar will focus first on how to be a smarter competitor in bidding situations and then on alternative strategies that will shelter you and your company from the price game, if not remove you from it all together. We will review; why estimation mistakes are made, Common bidding errors, 12 specific tips for improving the estimation process and Bidding in the context of the overall sales process.

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 14THURSDAY // 8:30AM – 10:00AM ROOM 207 T04 • RISK MANAGEMENT FOR DESIGN-BUILD PROJECTS AD CO
[ AIBC=1.5 Core LUs; BOMI=1.5 CPDs ]
In the traditional design-bid-build construction project, the property owner or tenant hires an architect or interior designer to design a facility or space, secures contractor bids based on the design, and the lowest bid completes the build. Many, however, now streamline the process by blending the role of designer and builder into a single package in a process known as a design-build methodology. This can save time and be easier to manage. However, it is not without its risks.
This seminar will explore the risks and rewards of the design-build methodology. A finely crafted design-build project can successfully incorporate all stakeholder requirements with limited owner risk. It can provide a long lasting, quality building the property owner or ten-ant can be proud of for years to come.

[ AIBC=1.5 Non-Core LUs; BOMI=1.5 CPDs ]
A smart phone or tablet has more capability and computing power today than most computers had several years ago, and computing power has increased well over 100 times in the last 10 years. Yet in the construction and property man-agement industries, most companies’ user interfaces have failed to harness these increased capabilities, and are stuck in more traditional applications. With the advent of cloud comput-ing, mobile technologies, BIM, VIM, and a number of other advancements as well as systems environments with more open architectures; the possibilities today and for the future are exciting. We will look at why you would use many of these technologies, what the tradeoffs are, how they can be practically deployed today, and what the benefits could be.

THURSDAY // 10:30AM – 12:00PM ROOM 217 T09 • OPERATING HIGH-PERFORMANCE BUILDINGS — ARE WE READY? PM CO GR
[ AIBC=1.5 Core LUs; BOMI=1.5 CPDs ]
Modern buildings are being designed to be energy efficient using highly intelligent, integrated systems. But do building operators have the skills necessary to run them? Talk to a building industry representative and they’ll tell you that the systems in high-performance buildings are often running at cross-purposes or worse, some buildings are running on their back-up systems because building operators lack the knowledge to operate the main systems. One large strata complex recently ripped out the operating software for its building and replaced it because the propriety software was too expensive to service and operate.

THURSDAY // 1:00PM – 2:30PM ROOM 207 T17 • CREATING BRIDGES BETWEEN GREEN BUILDING THEORY AND PRACTICAL APPLICATION AD CO GR
[ AIBC=1.5 Core LUs; BOMI=1.5 CPDs ]
When a homeowner makes the decision to build a sustainable home, there are often trade-offs required to meet the principles of green home design while trying not to sacrifice our North American lifestyle. Now, what happens when you layer in a rigorous European home design approach that is not easily incorporated into an ‘off grid’ house on Gabriola Island? Well, in a word…Creativity.
The purpose of this seminar will be to share a Passive House case study of an ‘off grid’ home built on Gabriola Island where the homeowner and design team collaborated through an in-tegrated design process to meet both objectives. In short, Passive House is one of the world’s leading standards in energy-efficient construction and the concept is a rigorous home design standard that includes a very well-insulated, virtually air-tight building that is primarily heated by passive solar gain and by internal gains from people and electrical equipment.

[ AIBC=1.5 Non-Core LUs; BOMI=1.5 CPDs ]
Engaging tenants and their employees is a relatively new strategy being used by Landlords to improve both building performance and tenant retention. Tenants see value in engagement because it supports their growing demands for better work environments and corporate sustainable reporting. Building owners and managers see value because it opens up oppor-tunities for performance improvements beyond the traditional focus on retrofitting building systems and, to a lesser extent, improvements in system operation. Tenant engagement looks at the impacts of tenant decisions and occupant behaviour, which both significantly affect energy use (regardless of the type and quality of building systems).

The Art of a Builders Lien – Audience Questions Answered – Part Deux!
Back by popular demand, Satinder Sidhu will again answer questions you have about build-ers liens. Builders liens are an effective tool for contractors to get paid or obtain security for payment - if handled properly. Filing, removing, advancing and thwarting a builders lien claim can be a work of art or a disaster. There are many mistakes that contractors and owners make when dealing with a builders lien. There are also many misconceptions about liens and “grey” areas on the legislation. Attendees will also learn about common mistakes and misconceptions regarding the Builders Lien Act and lien procedure in B.C. When should a Certificate of Completion be issued? When can a party claim a lien against a holdback? Email questions to us ahead of time to, [email protected]. This is your chance for “free” legal advice!
Understanding Construction Bonds
Construction Bonds are a common feature of modern construction projects but are often misunderstood by those who obtain them. Glen Boswall and Anna Sekunova will explain and provide practical advice on bid bonds, performance bonds, labour & material bonds, and construction lien bonds.
Attendees will learn the purpose and function of each bond type, how the bonds are trig-gered, and how bond claims are made.
Construction Defects Claims – The In’s & Out’s, The Do’s and Don’ts
Whether you are an owner, a developer, a project manager, a contractor or a consultant, there are risks when construction defects are discovered. Samantha Ip and Oliver Hanson will suggest ways to manage that risk.

High Performance Building Envelope Solutions
• Weather Resistive Air Barriers with Excellent Permeability: 50 perms
• Environmentally Friendly Membranes: Zero VOC’s, No Primers, Non-Asphaltic
The SYNTHEON ACCEL-E® Steel Thermal Efficient Panel wall system combines framing and insulation, making the construction of highly energy-efficient buildings easier and faster than ever before. ACCEL-E doesn’t force architects to change the way they design walls or limit choice in exterior cladding types. Nor does ACCEL-E require contractors to learn new construction meth-ods or invest in specialized equipment. The ACCEL-E wall system exceeds the thermal code performance requirements for the building envelope in Canada.
Using only 7 watts of energy, you can save over $118 in energy costs over the rated life of a lamp versus a standard 50-watt halogen lamp, based on $0.11 per kWh. Energy efficiency and long life mean fewer lamp replacements versus halogen MR16 light sources. It is dimmable in 100%–10%. Rated life of 25,000 hours (L70).

Duraline Painting – Booth 934TBL Durables, the first sprayable plastics
With the recent changes to Canadian Federal Legislation banning oil based traffic paints, most property managers will switch to a water based application. This will likely triple the cost. However there is great alternative...TBL Durables, the first sprayable plastics. Governments use Non-sprayable plastics on most intersections today. Plastics last 10 times longer than water based paints, leave the smallest carbon footprint, are reflective and look great. Many of the big companies back east have already made the switch...It makes sense!

Nitro Pipe Freeze – Booth 1921Nitro Pipe Freeze
Nitro Pipe Freeze creates a temporary isolation to pipe installations (e.g. plumbing, HVAC) so that repairs and alterations can be carried out on the system, without the need for a drain down. Utilizing Liquid Nitrogen, an ice plug is formed inside the pipe, acting as a de facto shut off valve.
Eliminating the need to drain large quantities of water/ toxic chemicals to the municipal sewer saves time, money and helps the environment.
