It is a pleasure to invite you to the 2020 GCRTC Conference. The conference is

organized by Green Construction Research and Training Center (GCRTC) and will take
place in Kelowna, BC on 26-28 August 2020.

The GCRTC as multi-disciplinary research and training hub enables a multitude of

disciplines to work in a symbiotic manner to enrich and broaden all disciplines’
capabilities towards greener construction. The purpose of this conference is to
reconvene the construction sustainability in Canada and worldwide to take stock of
where we stand in 2020. The conference brings together researchers, innovators, start-
up companies, manufacturers, construction products providers/industries.
