Lots of questions these days about reusing shipping containers in buildings. Shipping containers are cheap and structurally capable. They are not designed to be buildings, so it takes someone knowledgeable with building science to provide the right materials in the right place with the right equipment to make them comfortable, energy efficient, healthy, and durable. As a follow up presentation from last year, the Green Building Resource Center will have two developers, a designer, and two educators from the Architecture School of the University of Houston. CEU’s available.
