Introduction to Existing Building Retrofits

Introduction to Existing Building Retrofits

Sponsored By PROSOCO
Presented By Dave Kimball
1 AIA HSW/LU CE Hour(s)
1 GBCI General Hour

This program introduces building retrofits as a method to achieve green building standards by adapting existing structures. While a building retrofit may have several types of interventions, participants will learn how effective air sealing will improve overall occupant comfort, health, and safety.

Learning Objectives:
  1. Define building retrofits and identify goals of interventions.
  2. Illustrate how effective air sealing can help achieve goals of retrofit.
  3. Identify common sources of air leakage.
  4. Explain how to implement air sealing in a building retrofit.

Healthy Home: All Control Layers Working Together

Healthy Home: All Control Layers Working Together

Sponsored By Benjamin Obdyke
1 AIA HSW/LU CE Hour(s)
1 GBCI General Hour

Buildings have become a complex network of control systems which must work together to prevent failure, but often times these systems are incorporated incorrectly and lead to significant damage and unhealthy living conditions.

Learning Objectives:
  1. Understand why moisture management and drainage gaps, behind claddings, are more critical as we focus more on air tightness in the structure's envelope.
  2. Recognize that a true air barrier is created with a continuous plane around the entire building envelope.
  3. Understand how all control layers in the building envelope work together to prevent failure.
  4. Recognize the importance of communication between trades, design professionals, and manufacturers are vital to ensure proper detailing in the building envelope.

Benefits of High Efficiency Gas Water Heaters: Tank & Tankless Commercial Applications

Sponsored By Rheem Commercial Water
1 AIA HSW/LU CE Hour(s)
1 RCEP PDH(s) for Engineers

To optimize the design and performance of commercial water heater systems, professionals should understand the difference between standard and high efficiency gas water heaters. Join us in this one-hour course as we cover the benefits of high efficiency gas water heaters and how to easily convert from standard to high efficiency.

Learning Objectives:
  1. Compare and contrast standard efficiency and high efficiency gas water heaters for energy consumption, cost savings, and environmental impact
  2. Model best practices for converting from existing standard gas water heaters to high efficiency gas water heaters so projects remain cost-effective and time efficient
  3. Determine the correct water heater for different applications based on time, temperature, and quantity to improve thermal efficiency and occupant comfort
  4. Illustrate best practices for piping and venting multiple water heaters to ensure projects are safe and code compliant
  5. Recall advanced and emerging technologies in water heating that improve on efficiency and building integration

Why Did the Waterproofing Fail?

Why Did the Waterproofing Fail?

Sponsored By Noble Company
Presented By James Medina
1 AIA HSW/LU CE Hour(s)
1 GBCI General Hour

This course evaluates the reasons that lead to failures of waterproofing installations. It examines product attributes that lead to successful installations and identifies the ways to identify necessary characteristics. Also compares installation methods and identifies ways to specify successful installations.

Learning Objectives:
  1. Review common waterproofing products, installation methods, and building code compliance.
  2. Understand the relationship of movement in the surface and substrate to waterproofing.
  3. Understand reasons for failures in waterproofing installations under tile and the relationship of failed waterproofing to durability and Sustainable Design.
  4. Understand permeation and its impact on creating suitable water and vapor barriers for tile installations and the relationship of permeation to Indoor Air Quality.
