COVID-19 has created building and facility use challenges.  Design requirements that solve the physical or social distancing requirements are going to dominate design thinking for years to come.

The Bentley software used in the SMART Competition will enable student design teams to make the necessary changes while assuring the facility meets all of the usage goals.  For some design considerations and helpful hints, watch the 2 minute video from Bentley Systems:
