SUMMARY:WEBINAR:  Magnesium Oxide (MgO) Floor Panels for Multifamily Buildings
DESCRIPTION:1 LU|HSW \nPresented by Huber Engineered Woods LLC \nRegistration required \nCourse Description: All multifamily buildings must meet code requirements for fire-resistance between dwelling units and meet requirements for acoustical performance. This course looks more closely at designing and constructing with MgO panels. We begin with a description of the material and its properties and its code compliance characteristics related to fire resistance. The sound attenuation capabilities are also reviewed. Its installation\, particularly compared to wet-laid gypsum underlayment\, is presented. Overall\, using MgO panels are an option for specifications and design of multifamily projects around the country. \nLearning Objectives: After completion of this course\, participants will be equipped to: \n\nIdentify the physical characteristics of magnesium oxide (MgO) panels in terms of their make-up and basic performance attributes for use in floor assemblies in multifamily projects.\nInvestigate the fire-resistance capabilities and testing standards that demonstrate the ability for MgO panels to provide fire safety in buildings.\nAssess the acoustical capabilities of MgO panels in terms of meeting or exceeding code requirements for multifamily buildings on certain tested assemblies in dwelling separations.\nCompare and contrast the use of MgO structural panels with other floor underlayment options\, particularly gypsum underlayment\, in order to specify MgO panels appropriately in multifamily floor assemblies.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Floating Hardwood Floors & Sustainable Solid Hardwoods\, 2 Mini Sessions
DESCRIPTION:1 LU | HSW (.5 each) \nPresented by Stellar Floors \nRegistration required \nWe All Float On: The Advantages of Floating Hardwood Floors \nCourse description: Traditional solid hardwood floors are nailed or glued down\, and over the last 100 years\, there have been no significant technological advancements in the solid wood flooring industry. New floating methods have been developed leading to more flexible\, healthful\, and sustainable options in natural materials. This course is designed to teach participants the characteristics of floating floor assemblies that increase resilience to wear and promote adaptive reuse of flooring materials. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nLearning about new innovations in solid hardwood flooring and how they compared to the previous alternatives\, and positive implications moving forward.\nUnderstand how floating assemblies improve hardwood flooring performance while reducing the constant need to replace and discard floors every 5 to 20 years depending on wood species.\n\nWhole Woods: Why Solid Hardwoods are the Sustainable Solution for the Future \nCourse description:  Solid hardwood materials sequester roughly 1/2 of their weight in carbon and thereby represent a significant advantage in the construction of green buildings. Additional benefits are provided when materials are locally sourced and manufactured using wind and solar power. This course will explore the additional “carbon positive” benefits of innovative floating floor assemblies that are comprised of natural solid hardwoods. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nWeigh the costs and benefits of using solid woods in flooring applications\nDescribe the tangible sustainable benefits of using solid wood in construction\n\n
