How Form, Fit, and Function are impacted by Acoustics, Technology, and Lighting *1.5 LU Hours* Presented by Thorburn Associates through Aspire Online Learning In this session, participants will explore the design concept of form-fit-function (FFF) as it relates to the integration of acoustics, technology, and lighting into the overall architectural design without compromising project goals....
Brick Fundamentals *1.5 HSW* Presented by Meridian Brick and Masonry Supply The intent of this course is to analyze the ASTM performance criteria for clay brick and identify how it offers durability, safety, and energy efficiency benefits. Register <here>
Master class on the latest specialty tax benefits and strategies in recent CARES Act of 2020-2021, Coronavirus Relief and Tax Extenders Bill that just renewed some important original Energy Policy Act incentives for the design of energy-efficient buildings and renewable energy.
The presentation reviews the foundations of glass selection and explores options for meeting both aesthetic and performance goals. Covering the glass manufacturing process and the basics of performance measurement, it also provides a comprehensive overview of float and coated glass choices—and related fabrication decisions—that can affect the final appearance of the glass façade.
Understand different the production methods for clay thin brick while learning how to execute and establish a realistic aesthetic expectation as it relates to a successful thin brick wall system
Topics discussed include daylighting strategies available through the integration of structural sandwich panels, energy conservation, enhancements, options, form and aesthetics. The many benefits to health, productivity, safety and sustainable design will be discussed, as well as specialty applications including explosion venting, blast resistance, OSHA fall through protection and hurricane resistance
This session explores how health care codes, regulations, and design guidelines impact the acoustical comfort of patients, their families, and building occupants. Participants will learn how acoustics has a positive impact on the design of healthcare facilities including hospitals and trauma centers, laboratories, and assistive living facilities.
This Guardian Glass CEU is intended to help architect appreciate the value of fabrication as he stepped in the total glassmaking process - as well as the fabrication choices and consideration they should know for their projects.
Demonstrates how energy-efficiency goals—when addressed beginning in schematic design—can be successfully achieved, saving valuable resources such as design-time and client budgets
