Residential Construction Council of Ontario (RESCON)

Paul De Berardis brings over 13 years of engineering experience and expertise in different aspects of design, construction and building science. As a civil engineer, Paul has been involved in a wide spectrum of building related projects and takes an applied approach to his work. His greatest satisfaction is being part of creating lasting buildings to improve communities and society as a whole.

One of Paul’s first positions upon graduation was working in forensic engineering. There, he developed his passion for evaluating and solving complex problems while thinking outside the box. Over the course of his career, he has developed expertise in different aspects of engineering, design, construction and is a strong believer that BIM will serve as a catalyst to modernize the construction sector and the regulatory approvals process. This wholistic approach brings a broad lens to AECO’s table informing all aspects of the development cycle.

Paul loves cars and aspires to have his own collection one day. His experience and passion has driven him to undertake his own home construction projects and volunteer his time and resources to Habitat for Humanity. He is a loving husband and father of two daughters who enjoys spending his time with his family on the weekends by the pool.
