SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Fundamental Applications of Modern Interior Wall Systems
DESCRIPTION:1 LU | HSW \nPresented by Monarch Metal Inc. \nZoom Registration \nCourse Description: The use of interior wall systems relies on a basic knowledge of loads\, how walls work\, what types of walls are commonly found\, and how framing systems integrate and coordinate together for success. The proper design of structural elements\, sustainable material choices and proper execution of many dis-similar components become functional elements in our built environment. These choices have occupant safety considerations\, health ramifications\, and of course a diverse number of sustainably responsible considerations. Learning about the proper execution of a system from the foundation to more complex multi-component wall systems. \nThis presentation will concentrate on understanding by examining the commonly commercially available interior wall partitions\, systems and uses. We will discover by detailing the design constraints that affect choices as designers using interior wall systems. At the conclusion you will be able to identify the design parameters\, structural components\, and finish materials for interior wall systems and how our design choices contribute to the impact and character of the spaces you design. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nUnderstand the history & development of interior wall partitions & common uses\nIdentify design functions\, constraints\, structural capabilities\, and application methods\nConsiderations when choosing an interior wall system and its framing components\nDistinguishing how our design choices affect the impact\, character and performance of our spaces while keeping sustainability objectives in mind
