ClearCalcs have partnered with Standards Australia to make it easier for engineers to better access, understand, and use relevant engineering standards in real time.
Australian Standards, which are primary references in the National Construction Code, will be integrated into the ClearCalcs platform, with the aim of making it easier for engineers to ensure they are complying with the industry's relevant codes while perfoming key calculations.
To celebrate this partnership, ClearCalcs will be hosting a panel discussion with Daniel Chidgey, Standard Australia's Head of Commercial Partnerships, and Chris Borzillo, ClearCalcs' Co-Founder, and CEO to inspire and engage the industry on the latest in engineering innovation.
The panel theme is: “The new engineering technologies enabling innovative, creative and accurate access to construction standards”
This is your opportunity to get behind the scenes of this industry-first partnership and get the first look at what the Australian Standards integration into ClearCalcs looks like - all while having the opportunity to ask questions directly to ClearCalcs and Standards Australia and unpack what this partnership means for your engineering workflow.
