SUMMARY:WEBINAR: High Preforming Homes and Green Building Standards
DESCRIPTION:1 LU | HSW \nPresented by CLEAResult \nRegister \nCourse description: Green homes use nontoxic building materials to help combat indoor air pollution. Unhealthy air inside a dwelling can pose serious health risks for residents. Natural ventilation in green homes\, as well as mechanical ventilation systems that filter fresh air from outside\, keep residents breathing easy. \nThis session will discuss the different green standards and elements that are common in green or high-performance homes. Knowing these elements and why they are employed it then becomes easier to understand the positive health\, wellness environmental attributes. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nGreen Building Fundamentals and why green buildings are healthier for their occupants.\nGreen building design and the construction process.\nGreen Accreditation vs. Green Attributes.\nThe benefits and costs of building green along with green certifications.\nA review of how Rhode Island Energy’s technical support\, rebates\, and energy incentives along with how they can assist with achieving improvements will be summarized.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Behind the Scenes at Summer Street Supportive Housing
DESCRIPTION:1 LU \nBehind the scenes access to the secrets of building supportive\, energy-efficient housing as construction unfolds! \nWood Framed Midrise Construction: The Mom Jeans of Structural Systems \nIt’s a great fit and very practical – wood framing has become the structural system of choice for mid-rise residential construction for very good reasons!In this webinar we will review the all-wood framing of Summer Street Apartments\, including how it compares to ‘podium’ construction. We’ll look at code requirements\, cost considerations\, and other factors in selecting the system. We’ll also discuss the implications of off-site panelization and the coordination demands it places on the design and construction team. Lessons learned will include interface with the ground-improvement system discussed in Session 3. \nJoin KITE Architects for this virtual Webinar at 8:30am on Thursday July 25th

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Indoor Air Quality\, Your Health\, and a Healthy Home
DESCRIPTION:1 LU | HSW \nPresented by CLEAResult \nRegister \nCourse description:  The quality of a home’s indoor environment can have a big impact on occupant health. The EPA estimates that the indoor air quality in a home can be 5 to 10 times worse than outdoor air pollution. Learn what contributes to poor indoor air quality\, the health effects of indoor pollutants on occupants and what can be done to improve the air in new and existing homes. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nWe will explain the benefits of living in a home that has good indoor air quality and help architects evaluate the benefits of a ‘healthy home’ and its features that distinguish it.\nDistinguish common indoor air pollutant sources.\nIdentify respiratory and neurological problems that indoor air quality can impact and review programs that promote improved indoor air quality.\nUncover educational resources on improving indoor air quality and identify features in a home that improve the indoor air quality.\nA summary of how Rhode Island Energy technical support and energy enhancement incentives and rebates will be discussed to help achieve improvements.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Commercial Energy Code and Zero Energy Buildings
DESCRIPTION:1 LU | HSW \nPresented by CLEAResult \nRegister \nCourse description: High-performance buildings are designed to be energy-efficient\, healthy environments to live and work in. Zero-energy buildings are a type of high-performance building that generates as much energy as it consumes. These buildings not only save owners money on utility bills\, but also provide numerous benefits including improved comfort\, increased durability\, and better indoor air quality. These benefits have been shown to lead to improved health\, learning\, and productivity outcomes for occupants of various building types. \nThis workshop will introduce attendees to the Zero Net Energy (ZNE) buildings\, which incorporate efficient design\, construction and onsite solar photovoltaic (PV) systems to produce as much energy as they consume. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nLearn about high-performance buildings that achieve high energy savings compared with standard construction.\nBasic design\, trends and construction approaches will be discussed.\nExamples of New England climate of High-Performance showcases and NZE Buildings will be reviewed.\nThe provisions of utility incentives and free technical support will be summarized

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Rhode Island 2024 IECC Commercial Energy Code Updates
DESCRIPTION:2 LU | HSW \nNOTE: two hour session \nPresented by CLEAResult \nRegister \n Course description: The Rhode Island House of Representatives passed H6101/S0855 Sub A\, which requires the state to adopt the 2024 IECC within 3 months of publication with no amendments. The new commercial energy code will impact current design and construction practices\, as well as compliance and enforcement strategies. This course will explore some of the most significant updates from Rhode Island’s current 2018 IECC- based commercial energy code (SBC-8 with RI amendments) to the unamended 2024 IECC. In doing so\, Rhode Island will skip over 2021 IECC\, jumping directly to the more aggressive 2024 IECC\, resulting in a steeper learning curve than usual. Rhode Island building managers\, designers\, contractors\, developers\, and code officials are encouraged to attend and learn about the most significant code updates. \nThe training will cover how the required code updates – particularly the energy code updates taken together with the mechanical code updates – are expected to benefit public health\, safety and welfare in commercial buildings. Occupants feel better\, in terms of both physical health and mood. Some examples of performance issues that affect comfort are temperature extremes\, humidity extremes\, excessive airspeed from ventilation\, unpleasant odors\, and noise. These standards help to ensure safe air quality for occupants. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nLearn about the energy code section of the Building Safety Act and changes to the Rhode Island Energy Code that will be required.\nExamine the impact of the upcoming code updates to the energy code compliance procedures which include Prescriptive and Performance.\nLearn about the upcoming energy code requirements for permit applications\, permit document sets\, and energy inspections.\nThe training will cover how the required code updates – particularly the energy code updates taken together with the mechanical code updates – are expected to benefit public health safety and welfare in commercial buildings.\nWe will discuss: • Building envelope – Prescriptive R-value and U-values for envelope assemblies and whole building airtightness • Mechanical – Equipment efficiency requirements including energy recovery and economizer requirements • Electrical – Lighting controls and electric-ready provisions • Plumbing – Energy conservation requirements. Enforcement – Inspection\, documentation\, and commissioning requirements.\nAn overview of the Rhode Island Energy Code Technical Support Initiative and Free Energy Code Technical Support will be discussed.
