Parking is placed below grade to prioritize pedestrian access and maximize the activation of outdoor spaces.

SUMMARY:AIA | TEXO Industry Mixer & Roundtable
DESCRIPTION:You’re invited to join us on April 28 at KSC for an engaging Lunch & Learn\, followed by drinks and networking. \nTechnology is accelerating the pace of design and construction\, but project outcomes still depend on how well architects\, VDC teams\, and builders align expectations—from schematic design through field execution. \nThis panel workshop shares practical coordination strategies\, real-world reconciliation approaches\, and fabrication-informed workflows that help teams reduce rework\, protect design intent\, and improve constructability. \nLearning Objectives \n\nIdentify the most common coordination breakdowns across SD\, DD\, CD\, and CA\, and apply phase-specific prevention tactics to reduce downstream RFIs and rework.\nDescribe how early modeling standards and BIM Execution Plan (BEP) decisions influence constructability\, cost certainty\, and schedule risk later in the project.\nEvaluate structured design reconciliation methods that bridge design intent and construction reality by surfacing clashes\, scope gaps\, and constructability constraints before mobilization.\nApply communication practices that improve cross-disciplinary collaboration—using technology as a shared language rather than a silo—resulting in clearer coordination and decision-making.\nSpecify what information is most valuable for builders (tolerances\, assemblies\, sequencing constraints\, access/clearances) and map it to the design team’s deliverable timeline.\n\nThis course is approved for 1.5 LU. continuing education credits by AIA CES.

SUMMARY:Collin County Public Health Buildings: Panel Discussion & Tour
DESCRIPTION:Collin County Public Health Buildings\nCollin County is delivering a major capital improvement project at its central campus in McKinney\, TX\, focused on expanding public health services and supporting long‑term growth. The project includes a new four‑story\, 90\,000‑square‑foot County Healthcare Facility with space reserved for future expansion\, a 20\,000‑square‑foot Medical Examiner’s building\, a 485‑space parking garage\, and associated site improvements. \nBy relocating key healthcare and medical examiner services to the main campus\, the County is creating a centralized hub for public health and safety. Supported in part by federal pandemic relief funding\, the project reflects Collin County’s commitment to improving access to healthcare\, strengthening community services\, and preparing for the future. (Source: The Christman Company) \n  \n\nDesign\, Technology\, and Delivery\nThe panel discussion and tour will examine three Collin County Medical Campus facilities — a 90\,000 square foot healthcare building\, a 20\,000 square foot medical examiner building\, and a multi-level structured parking garage — as case studies on early team alignment between the architect\, owner\, and general contractor. These projects show how early team alignment and maintaining close working relationships assist in navigating program complexity\, MEP coordination\, and thoughtful planning for long term growth. The panel will also emphasis construction technologies and specialty systems used on the project\, with practical takeaways for both designers and builders. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nParticipants will learn how early owner-architect-contractor alignment reduces scope creep\, redesign\, and schedule risk.\nParticipants will explore coordination methods for managing dense systems in healthcare environments.\nParticipants will understand how BIM and collaboration platforms improve decision-making and minimize RFIs and change orders.\nParticipants will learn to utilize flexible planning and infrastructure strategies to future-proof facilities.\n\nThis course is approved for 1.0 LU. continuing education credits by AIA CES. \n  \n\nEvent Details:\n\n\n9:00–9:30 PM — Check-in\, Meet & Greet\, Networking \n9:30–10:30 PM — Panel Discussion \n10:30–11:00 PM — Q&A \n11:00–12:00 PM — Facility Tour \n\nPlease note that this is an active job site\, and all participants are required to bring their own personal protective equipment (PPE)\, including: hard hat\, eye protection\, high visibility vest\, and protective footwear.
