The architects at Perkins and Will envisioned a modern and distinctive façade for Union on 24th. Their objective was to deliver a finished look that was both elegant and low-maintenance, and on time.
Located in the Short North Arts District of Columbus, OH, is GreenHouse Short North, a new seven-story, mixed-use development with 158 units.
The exterior features approximately 64,000 square feet of Omega-Lite® by Laminators Incorporated.
Integrating daylighting devices reduced energy consumption and maximized natural light. By replacing the traditional clerestories used in the first two regional libraries with Solatube TDDs and acrylic panels, a visually striking skylight effect was achieved, enhancing both aesthetics and sustainability.
Reoccurring roof leaks were becoming a problem with the original standing seam metal roof at this hub of activity.
The project required 4,600 linear feet of Roof Hugger’s Model T, a 4-1/2-inch-tall sub-purlin for typical 24-inch on-center rib trapezoidal standing seam panel.
The construction of the new 770,000 square-foot facility represented Bombardier’s commitment to sustainability. Coinciding with Bombardier’s goal to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, insulated metal panels (IMPs) were a strong choice for the building material.
As urbanization becomes more prevalent, the built environment’s impact on climate change and local ecosystems will worsen. Since thermal bridging significantly reduces buildings’ energy efficiency, it’s one of the main drivers for these outcomes. What technologies and analytical techniques can prevent heat loss?
An upcoming webinar will provide an outline on the practice of BECx and its benefits with real world case studies. We were recently joined by the presenter, Adam Ugliuzza, Director of Enclosures at Sustainable Building Partners, to chat about what to expect during the discussion.
Now more than ever, it’s critical that we’re committed to embodied carbon reduction. To do this, AEC professionals need to focus on reducing the embodied carbon of materials and construction processes, which is often overlooked but crucial for overall carbon reduction
This year, IIBEC and OBEC have teamed up to bring the 2024 Building Envelope Symposium to Toronto, Canada, for a live, interactive experience convening the best experts in building enclosure industry. Jill Bloom, Group Publisher for Building Enclosure, sat down with IIBEC’s CEO/EVP, Brian Pallash, to chat about what to expect during this year’s show.
