On-Demand This presentation will provide an outline on the practice of BECx and its benefits with real world case studies. It will begin by walking through the fundamental building science principles pertaining to heat and moisture movement through building enclosure assemblies, as well as describe the function and order of importance of the primary environmental control layers (water, air, vapor and thermal).
On-Demand Layers of requirements from the new energy code updates to sustainability standards to sound building science can all come together to help achieve this goal. This presentation will guide attendees through specific examples of how to design robust details to do just that.
On-Demand The science of buildings and how they perform is not often a focus during school, but can become a specialty in practice. Topics such as vapor movement, a robust thermal envelope and condensation prevention are ones that cause issues in many buildings.
On-Demand This webinar will introduce and share recent updates to the AISI Code of Standard Practice (COSP), discuss the contents of the COSP as it applies to a typical CFS project, and answer participant questions by way of an expert in both CFS design and CFS project management.
On-Demand Join us as we showcase different projects and how they have successfully implemented tapered design into their roof assemblies through iterative design and specific language in their specification.
On-Demand This webinar explores how integrating technologies into our daily routines, guided by Clear's four laws of behavior change (make it obvious, attractive, easy, and satisfying), can transform our work processes and AE firm’s culture. By adopting a mindset shift towards seeing ourselves not just as design professionals, but as innovators, we align technology with our identity, ensuring its seamless adoption.
On-Demand During this webinar, you will learn about the new wind requirements in ASCE 2022, best practices for designing for very severe hail, and ways to manage water from large rain events.
On-Demand This webinar aims to equip you with the insights needed to make informed choices between air/vapor barriers and permeable vapor retarders for low-slope roofing, enhancing your proficiency in creating resilient and sustainable building envelopes.
On-Demand In this webinar, we will review code requirements and air barrier options for enclosure projects, share observed trends in the industry, and highlight common mistakes in designing and constructing air barrier systems. We will also share recommended approaches for designing and testing air barrier products and systems to help stakeholders avoid problems with air infiltration once the building is in service.
