Join the Building Enclosure Council on April 16 for a lunch program with speaker David Altenhofen.
This course will outline the interplay between energy performance, daylighting, and visual impact in façade design, while showcasing cutting edge design ideas and the latest in cooling and heating technology. A mix of case studies, energy modeling, CFD analysis, and practical application tips will detail the ideal use of different comfort conditioning approaches in varying market sectors.
Continuing Education Credits: Pending
Learning Objectives:
1. Identify at a conceptual level the performance functions of the building enclosure.
2. Discuss the performance attributes of the primary control layers (insulation, air barriers, water resistive barriers and vapor barriers). Compare how they overlap, support or conflict with the performance of other layers.
3. Understand the generic wall assembly types layer-by-layer and how reliably they control heat, air and moisture.
4. Review construction documentation and detailing concepts.
