On-Demand Join Douglas for this illuminating session that will empower you to unlock profitable projects and gain mastery in fee estimation. By the end of this session, you'll possess the knowledge and tools to make informed financial decisions, ensuring the prosperity of your AE firm.
On-Demand This webinar will educate attendees about building longevity and sustainability, and how these concepts improve energy efficiency. The course examines how foil-faced polyiso continuous insulation can function as multiple control layers, providing air- and water-resistive barriers, in addition to providing a thermal control layer and meeting NFPA 285 fire code standards.
On-Demand The presentation will provide designers with specific items to include on their project for a more resilient roof design to resist wind, water and keep a building operable after a storm.
On-Demand As weather gets more extreme, roofs are being asked to withstand even more: manage more water, defend against larger hail and stay on during high winds. 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 presentation will discuss the development of air leakage requirements in the model energy codes for commercial buildings. It will then describe the status of adoption of model codes by the states. Finally, the implications for enforcement through whole building airtightness testing of the adopted code will be discussed.
On-Demand These factors include the different types of metal roof and wall systems, materials used in manufacturing, fastener types as well as environmental issues such as saltwater and wind speed. Structural issues including building framing, roof slope, curving, perforation and more are addressed. Finally, a review of cost assessment and how it’s affected by sustainability needs, installation concerns and jobsite best practices rounds out this course.
On-Demand Through this course, learn about how specifying the roof edge is the single most cost-effective enhancement for wind uplift on a commercial roof and how you can help mitigate risk and protect lives through design.
On-Demand This presentation will help designers better understand how moisture moves through airflow by diffusion. We will discuss permeability of materials and its impact on the performance of enclosure assemblies.
Credits: 1 AIA LU/Elective; 0.1 ICC CEU; 0.1 IACET CEU On-Demand In this session, we will learn the fundamentals of all successful AE firms and provide the basis for making well-grounded business decisions. We will learn how firms can transition from being professionals providing services, to highly tuned businesses that can identify the needs of the marketplace and create services and products that are appropriately priced and yield consistent and greater profits.
On-Demand The session will also examine various roof and wall assemblies, supported by lab tests and real-world data. Finally, we'll cover essential quality assurance protocols, including building enclosure commissioning and whole building airtightness testing, to ensure your designs perform as intended.
