What happened
The Building with Resilience effort launched a new online resource, the Resilient Rebuild Hub, at the 2026 Western Cement Summit in Newport Beach. The hub compiles approaches for proven, non-combustible building systems. These approaches are based on lessons learned from how homeowners in a fire-ravaged Pacific Palisades neighborhood rebuilt after a major wildfire.
