ASC 2025: Editor's Preface

This volume contains the papers presented at ASC 2025: Associated Schools of Construction 61st Annual International Conference held on April 22-25, 2025, in Calgary, Alberta.

There were 134 submissions. Each submission was reviewed by at least 1 person, and on average, 2.5 people, program committee members. The committee decided to accept 93 papers. Publication in the ASC proceedings represents an important milestone of accomplishment for the authors due to the rigorous review process.

The ASC International Proceedings of the Annual Conference provides for the dissemination of research that enhances and improves teaching and learning processes within construction education and construction practice. Papers submitted to the Annual Proceedings contribute to the understanding of the issues, problems, and research associated with the construction industry and construction education. The Proceedings are published once each year for the international conference.

The editors would like to thank the ASC Board of Directors, the ASC Webmaster, and especially the External Reviewers who graciously volunteered their time to provide constructive reviews of the submitted papers. It is the efforts of all these individuals that make these proceedings possible.
