Sponsored by InspectMind
February 20, 2026

Date/Time: March 18, 2026 12:00 pm Central

Structural engineers face increasing pressure to deliver faster while maintaining quality and reducing liability. In this session, we will demonstrate how AI-powered plan checking can automatically review structural drawings, flag coordination gaps, identify code-related issues, and detect inconsistencies in minutes. You’ll see real examples of how firms are using AI to standardize QA/QC, reduce rework, and strengthen internal review workflows before submission. This session focuses on practical implementation strategies for firms of all sizes.
