SUMMARY:Webinar: dormakaba USA\, Inc. presents\, Managing & Specifying Architectural Opening Hardware
DESCRIPTION:1 HSW \nZoom Registration required \nCourse Description:  Provide an overview of builders hardware or finish hardware choices; options\, applications and information for users and designers to reduce misapplications. We will discuss building code administrations\, laws\, code compliance\, and industry standards for providing security and safety measures while providing accessibility and emergency egress to meet the legal aspects of a building and building design. \nLearning  Objectives: \n\nUnderstanding the hardware selection process for architectural openings (Why are there different types?) providing security and safe egress for zoning\, regulatory\, and code compliance and to ensure life cycle assessment and preservation and reuse of existing facilities.\nCoordinate related architectural items requiring finish hardware. Analyze conditions and coordinate related architectural items requiring finish hardware for windows and openings to accommodate building form and enable efficient traffic control.\nUnderstand that there are many elements to any entrance and finish hardware  specification issues that have to be coordinated to provide preservation and re use of buildings and provide architectural grade products for structural integrity\, life cycle assessment\, and soundness of the building.\nSpecifying architectural opening hardware products (know components and terms) to comply with life safety\, building code\, and accessibility requirements for inclusion in submittals and hardware schedules to enable equal access by users and owners of the buildings.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Schluter Systems  presents\, The Uncoupling Principle
DESCRIPTION:1 HSW \nZoom Registration required \nCourse Description: This seminar will examine the Uncoupling Principle\, which is now recognized in the Tile Council of America’s 2001 Handbook for Ceramic Tile Installation. Review the history behind the Uncoupling Principle and examine the evolution of tile setting techniques\, along with the benefits and limitations of each stage of development. The individual functions that are inherent to an uncoupling system will be discussed and the major implications for tile and stone installations revealed. \nLearning Objectives: At the end of this program\, the participant will be able to: \n\nComprehend the basics of the uncoupling principle and its relationship to the tile and stone industry\nRecognize new areas of installation that can be attained through the utilization of an uncoupling system\nInterpret and apply the new details and applications found in the current TCA Handbook.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Floodproofing.com presents\, Floodplain Design\, Construction\, and Impacts on Flood Insurance
DESCRIPTION:1 HSW\, 1 ICC-CEU\, 1 CFM-CEC \, 1 PDH \nZoom Registration required \nCourse Description:  This course provides insight into the importance of proper foundation flood vents and dry floodproofing techniques for buildings located in a flood zone. It will identify FEMA Technical Bulletins 1\, 2\, and 3\, the National Flood Insurance Program\, ASCE 24\, ICC\, and Building Code regulations and standards as they relate to sustaining foundations and overall business continuity in flood hazard areas. The course will also analyze the role of building compliance in securing lowering flood insurance rates and what mitigation solutions are available for both residential and non-residential structures. After the course\, participants will have a thorough understanding of floodproofing options and the important role they play in designing a sustainable structure. \nLearning Objectives: \n• Describe floods and the potential hazards to buildings. \n• Explain the differences between wet and dry floodproofing techniques. \n• Define the differences in engineered and non-engineered flood openings and their ability to ensure \nresilient structures. \n• Active vs. passive floodproofing solutions and the overall impact of ownership.

SUMMARY:Webinar: International Masonry Institute presents\, Forensic Engineering for Historic Properties
DESCRIPTION:1 HSW \n Zoom Registration required \nCourse Description:  Historic buildings and structures can show signs of distress or damage\, but require an investigation to understand the root cause of the issue. Forensic engineering is the field of engineering where we assess and diagnose problems. Information from the investigation is used to develop repair and restoration solutions that address issue appropriately. Forensic techniques can be used on a variety of types of construction and building materials. This presentation will use case studies to illustrate examples of how forensic engineering has been used for restoration and rehabilitation projects. Case studies will include historic stone masonry\, terra cotta and steel structure\, exposed concrete\, and a copper dome. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nUnderstand the basics of a forensic engineering investigation.\nRecognize observations and tools used during investigations and the limitations for assessing the extent of deterioration.\nLearn common investigation approaches for various types of building construction\, including historic stone masonry\, terra cotta and steel\, and exposed concrete.\nUnderstand how forensic engineering identifies the causation of problems and is valuable to historic restoration and rehabilitation projects.
