SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Glazing Strategies for Sound Control
DESCRIPTION:1 LU | HSW \nPresented by Pella \nZoom Registration required \nCourse Description: As noise pollution continues to become a growing health concern\, strategies to control sound in both residential and non-residential building design have also increased in importance. This course examines the significance of sound control strategies and how they can improve the health and well-being of individuals by increasing comfort\, workplace productivity\, reducing stress\, and allowing for proper rest. The acoustic attenuation properties of fenestration products are important factors to consider when designing new buildings or remodeling existing ones. Discussions on site-specific testing\, STC and OITC ratings\, and real-world examples will leave attendees with a better understanding of how a strong sound control strategy is important for the success of a project. \nLearning Objectives:  \n\nLearn why a sound control strategy matters in project design.\nLearn basic sound properties\, how they are measured\, and basic principles for controlling unwanted noise.\nExplore glazing solutions that provide sound control.\nLearn why site-specific acoustical testing may be necessary.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Weatherization: Insulation and Building Science
DESCRIPTION:1.0 LU | HSW \nPresented by CLEAResult \nZoom Registration required \nCourse Description: \nThis course will instruct on how to make a home more efficient for all seasons. Learning the basics of observing what is needed for a home to be energy-efficient and safe for occupants throughout all seasons. The U.S. Department of Energy released the results of the National Evaluation of the Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP). The result from these studies provides the success of its endeavors. Energy efficiency is a primary focus of Weatherization and the evaluations showed that single-family households saved an average of over $200 on energy bills annually. Yet\, the most inspiring benefits of the program had nothing do with energy at all. It is a proven fact that the “non-energy” benefits associated with weatherization and retrofit activities are huge! The health benefits were some of the most impressive results to come out of the evaluations. According to these peer-reviewed findings\, participants in the Weatherization program can reduce the need for emergency room visits and other health-related costs\, saving families thousands in non-energy related benefits. \nLearning Objectives \n\nThe course will begin with insulation basics and then extend to all areas of making a home more energy efficient which will not only help the homeowners energy consumption but will also benefit their health\, welfare\, and the environment.\nFundamentals of Building Science\, Insulation and Energy Consumption: Heat Transfer 1. Conduction 2. Convection 3. Radiation\nWhat is infiltration and why is it important: Air Infiltration & Air Sealing\, Air Quality\, Introducing statistical figures on lack of insulation and moisture.\nNew Homes vs. Existing Homes: Understanding Construction Basics\, vented vs. Unvented Attics\, HVAC\, how “green” is your home and green misconceptions D. Tax Rebates and Government Programs\, National Grid incentives and rebates.\nGreen Building Programs & Differences:  National Green Building Standard\, LEED 3. Energy Star\, NARGreen

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: HEALTHY HOME All Control Layers Working Together
DESCRIPTION:HEALTHY HOME All Control Layers Working Together1 LU | HSW \nZoom Registration required. \nThis week’s webinar is presented by Benjamin Obdyke\, a chapter sponsor. \nCourse description:  \nBuildings have become a complex network of control systems which must work together to prevent failure\, but often times these systems are incorporated incorrectly and lead to significant damage and unhealthy living conditions. This course will explore the four control layers in the building envelope and how they must work together to create a healthy home. \nLearning Objectives:  \n\nUnderstand why moisture management and drainage gaps\, behind claddings\, are more critical as we focus more on air tightness in the structure’s envelope.\nRecognize that a true air barrier is created with a continuous plane around the entire building envelope.\nUnderstand how all control layers in the building envelope work together to prevent failure.\nRecognize the importance of communication between trades\, design professionals\, and manufacturers are vital to ensure proper detailing in the building envelope.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR:  Rhode Island Stretch Code Training
DESCRIPTION:1.0 LU |HSW \nZoom Registration required \nThis week’s webinar is presented by CLEAResult \nCourse Description:\nRhode Island adopted a stretch code in 2017 with the desired outcomes of promoting energy-efficient homes\, assisting with construction of net zero energy homes\, expanding the installation of renewable energy systems and constructing healthy homes. We will learn that the stretch code is a locally mandated code or alternative compliance path that is more aggressive than base code\, resulting in buildings that achieve higher energy savings. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nLearn how stretch code provisions are designed to integrate with existing national model energy codes for residential and commercial construction\, such as the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) and the American Society of Heating\, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) Standard 90.1.\nWhen base codes are not keeping up with advances in technology and design practices\, stretch codes provide an opportunity to train the building and development communities in advanced practices before the underlying energy code is improved and help accelerate market acceptance and adoption of more stringent energy efficiency codes in the future.\nThis session will review Rhode Island stretch codes and other compliant pathways. http://www.energy.ri.gov/policies-programs/lead-by-example/rhode-island-stretch-codes.php\nLearn how to utilize Rhode Island incentive options to meet this compliance alternative. Stretch codes can work in tandem with utility incentive programs. In many cases\, utility energy efficiency programs\, incentives and jurisdictional stretch code programs can be aligned\n\n

SUMMARY:WEBINAR:  Changing Architecture As We Know It: Step One
DESCRIPTION:1 LU \nZoom Registration required \nThis week’s webinar is presented by KITE Architects \nCourse Description:  What do you do when there’s not enough work to go around? Many offices struggled to stay busy during 2020 when the pandemic caused a decrease in work. KITE’s group research initiative began to keep our office working on meaningful assignments and to ensure the staff stay connected while working remotely. This aligned with KITE’s pre-pandemic interest in building our knowledge about human-centered design and how it can change architecture as we know it. Together we investigated specific design strategies associated with cognitive behavior to create space that supports our well-being and produced a robust set of illustrated white papers. This presentation will provide attendees with an overview of new ways to structure projects\, and an introduction to human-centered design. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nLearn how investing in knowledge can provide meaningful investment of time during a decrease in a firm’s workload.\nExplore how aspects of Distributed Agile Teams can inform a different way to structure projects.\nTechniques to improve office connectivity and engagement through research projects.\nUnderstand human-centered design as a new\, science-based way of looking at architecture.
