Thanks and kudos to Yancey Hughes for an outstanding presentation and to Geolam for sponsoring the course. Yancey has such an impressive delivery and his hands on knowledge of the technologies and the products made it easy to follow and comprehend. I am an architect registered in Texas and have fairly extensive experience with Geolam products, specifically the "Vertigo 5010" which I used on multi-family complexes. I first researched the product on-line and was fortunate enough to have had the fine personal assistance from Geolam staff members who sent me great product information and specs, and did so in a most friendly, accommodating fashion. I love the technology and the product which is manufactured by Geolam is every bit as fabulous as Yancey touted at the end of the presentation. The detailing of the "Vertigo 5010" was so easy and, since I am a very detail minded architect, I found it fun to do the work because it all made so much sense to me....a fantastic product and manufacturer. Well, I've rambled enough, so I'll conclude by saying I loved the course and will certainly continue to incorporate Geolam products in any future projects when possible. Grateful. One last note, in these times I take a lot more pride in sustainable design, as we all should to honor and protect our Dear Mother Earth, so using a product that I am 100% confident in its quality control in manufacturing and its life cycle sustainability creates a warm feeling of satisfaction when I use it.

Charles

Understanding "Wood Aesthetic" Cladding and Soffit Technologies

FREE

The look of “Wood” provides warmth in a building design that cannot be achieved by masonry, metals or other building materials. Natural wood is a traditional option, but newer composite and synthetic products replicate the look of natural wood but offer superior color retention and life-cycle performance while requiring little to no maintenance. This learning unit will provide an in- depth overview of current “wood” design technologies natural and synthetic.

Credits: 1 AIA LU HSW + 1 GBCI (USGBC/CAGBC) + 1 AIBD Primary + 1 AIBC Core LU + 1 AAA Structured LU + 1 OAA, OAQ, SAA, MAA, AAPEI, NWTAA

Length: 1 hour
