SUMMARY:Webinar: CertainTeed Ceilings presents\, Measuring Healthy Buildings:  Modes\, Methods\, and Meaning for Discovery and Practice
DESCRIPTION:1 HSW \nZoom Registration required \nCourse Description:  This course presents the background and results from a unique study of how high-performing buildings can impact the outcomes for their occupants. A large sample group of professionals of diverse functions were studied as they performed their tasks and lived their work lives in two distinct office environments. Physical measurements combined with survey responses were used to provide comparison and impact. This course provides participants with the human and business impacts of moving a corporation from an outdated and inefficient facility to a state-of-the-art\, energy-efficient and environmentally-sustainable building designed with the occupant in mind. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nDevelop an understanding of longitudinal studies and pre- and post-occupancy evaluation protocols to measure the impact of buildings on their occupants.\nGain a deep understanding of the occupant comfort study conducted at a newly constructed North American corporate headquarters.\nLearn more about how building material and systems selection plays a crucial role in improving occupant comfort and well-being.\nDiscover how a systems-based approach and assessment protocols were utilized in the design of a LEED Platinum-rated commercial office building.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Technoform Group presents\, Designing High Performance Facades
DESCRIPTION:1 HSW \nZoom Registration required \nCourse Description: This course describes the multiple challenges in designing high performance building envelopes in order to deliver energy performance\, sufficient glazed area for optimized daylight admission and views\, thermal comfort and condensation resistance (indoor air quality) as well as structural and durability performance\, yet still providing architectural design freedom. Common disconnects in specifying fenestration and fenestration components are reviewed. The concept of the “thermal zone” is introduced\, and technologies such as polyamide thermal breaks and warm-edge spacer\, that improve its performance are described. Guidance is provided on choosing the optimum thermal break and edge of glass spacer technologies to meet thermal performance requirements while still delivering the structural and durability requirements\, and also allowing architectural design freedom. The fenestration U-factor requirements of the recently updated and more stringent energy codes\, and how to specify fenestration components to meet them\, are also covered. \nLearning  Objectives \nUpon completing this course\, you will be able to: \n\nDescribe the current challenges for designing high performance\, sustainable\, building envelopes\nIdentify the common misconceptions regarding the specification of fenestration\nSummarize the key thermal zone technologies in the market and choose optimum thermal break and spacer technology to reach design thermal performance targets\, while maintaining durability and structural performance\, and optimizing aesthetics\nIdentify through case studies the use of thermal zone technology selection strategies to create high performance building envelopes in a range of climate zones and applications

SUMMARY:Webinar: Pella presents\, Window Solutions for Historic Buildings
DESCRIPTION:1 HSW \nZoom Registration required \nCourse Description: We often think of building projects as new construction. However\, the reality is that in any given year\, there are typically more building renovation and rehabilitation projects undertaken by owners than there are new construction projects. Only a small percentage of these existing building projects fall in the category of “historic” with the associated public programs and design restrictions that go along with that designation. The majority are motivated by changing owner needs\, energy concerns\, maintenance considerations\, and general modernization or upgrade requirements. In all of these cases\, windows are often a topic of interest and concern. Should they be replaced or can they be repaired?  If they are replaced\, what are the options? Which option is best for a particular situation? Understanding how to answer these questions gives architects the ability to work with their clients to make informed decisions and improve the overall outcome of projects. \nLearning Objectives: \n • Discuss the historic significance of existing windows in buildings\, including their historic role in providing natural daylight and ventilation for buildings. \n • List the National Park Service’s guidelines for historic window rehabilitation and describe how they contribute to a sustainable building rehabilitation. \n• Design a window rehabilitation plan for buildings that includes recommendations for preservation\, maintenance\, repair\, replacement where needed\, design for missing historic features\, alterations/additions\, and energy retrofitting. \n• Evaluate window replacement options for existing commercial and institutional buildings\, including an assessment of how each option addresses structural performance\, daylighting\, natural ventilation\, noise control\, energy efficiency\, cost\, code requirements\, and lead abatement.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Inpro Corporation presents\, The New Normal and the Fight Against Surface Contaminants
DESCRIPTION:1 HSW \nZoom Registration required \nCourse description:   As we assess what we’ve learned from the Covid 19 pandemic\, keeping interior spaces clean is part of the equation to preventing similar situations in the future. Since no building is immune from the spread of sickness and infections\, we look to take precautions through more stringent cleaning measures to keep guests\, students\, staff\, patients and residents safer and more comfortable.  This course will cover common ways surfaces can become contaminated\, the causes\, the impacts and the solutions for cleaner\, more-resilient interiors. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nRelate how surfaces across building types can be the path of transmission.\nRecognize the impacts of surface contamination.\nIdentify design strategies to facilitate cleaning\, reduce contamination and cut maintenance time.\nExamine the relationship between interior building products and minimizing the spread of infection.

SUMMARY:Webinar: The Sky Factory presents\, The Restorative Impact of Perceived Open Space
DESCRIPTION:1 LU/HSW \nZoom Registration required \nCourse Description:  In this course we explore the impact of interior environments on human performance and wellness. We explore the role natural daylight and perceived open space play in modulating cognitive function\, and how we can engage our memories of natural environments to enhance occupant health and productivity in enclosed interiors. The course introduces a cognitive approach to design that underscores the value of perceived open space as a restorative attribute that engages our biophilic memory. Two spatial reference frames present in nature\, the perceived zenith\, the highest point above the observer\, and the perceived horizon line\, the farthest point before the observer\, can be recreated in an enclosed interior space by staging an appropriate illusion to alter our perception of space. Recreating these fundamental spatial maps through an effective illusion enables a range of wellness benefits normally associated with interiors applying more traditional biophilic design principles. \nLearning Objectives \nFollowing this course you will be able to: \n\nExplain why reducing daylight to its elemental components\, brightness (irradiance) and color temperature\, in enclosed interiors can alter our perception of daylight’s inherent spatial nature. \nDiscuss the role circadian photoreceptors and retinal cones play in regulating circadian entrainment and how the environmental context in which our physiology detects daylight is as important is the light itself.\nDescribe the neural pathways that link our sensorimotor system (how we move through space) with executive function (how we think)\, thereby generating our sense of place.\nSummarize the malleable nature of human perception and how bi-sensory illusions in enclosed interiors can evoke spatial memories to alter our perception of those spaces.\nDiscuss the implications of interior design on human health and productivity.
