Emerging Trends in High-Performance Enclosure Optimization

Daniel Overbey, an Associate Principal and Director of Sustainability for Indiana-based Browning Day, joins us to chat about his webinar, "Emerging Trends in High-Performance Enclosure Optimization." Listen in as Dan goes over some of the best ways design teams can go about optimizing their enclosures for high-performance outcomes.

Listen in as Dan goes over some of the best ways design teams can go about optimizing their enclosures for high-performance outcomes, and how much of this happens during the pre-design phase.

We’ll also briefly go over carbon assessments, what goes into these, and what building performance tools are available to designers.

Learning Objectives:

• Explain the role and impact of establishing a minimum performance standard for any building project—and why regular updates to the standard matter with regard to climate action.
• Define what a carbon assessment is for a building project and what should be included in the scope of the assessment.
• Describe the process by which building performance simulation (BPS) tools can be implemented in building projects to optimize strategies for reducing operational and embodied carbon.
• Express the importance of building enclosure commissioning (BECx) as a means of quality assurance with regard to high-performance outcomes.
