The Benefits of 100% Offsite Fabricated Stainless Steel Railing Systems
FREE
Description
Explore the advantages of integrating 100% offsite fabricated and custom-designed stainless steel railing systems into your projects.
Due to its durability, recyclability, and resistance to the environment, stainless steel is the professionals' preferred choice offering longevity and low maintenance.
Offsite fabrication of architectural products streamlines construction processes, improving timelines, and reducing waste and costs while dramatically increasing product quality.
If that’s one of your goals, how can architects, engineers, and designers help their builders and general contractors succeed in this matter? To the greatest extent possible, specify architectural products that are fabricated 100% offsite (prefabricated), and delivered to the Jobsite ready-to-be-installed.

Thermally Modified Wood: For the Love of Wood
FREE
Description
Humans have serious relationship with wood. Trees are the lungs of the Earth, and without them we wouldn’t be here. We breathe the oxygen released by trees, and trees absorb the carbon-dioxide we exhale. It makes sense why we love to design with beautiful wood.
With that love, we must be responsible. With the over-harvesting of tropical hardwoods, we seek technologies to strengthen the less-durable wood species that are responsibly grown. This course will explain how thermally-modified wood meets that challenge.

Understanding "Wood Aesthetic" Cladding and Soffit Technologies
FREE
Description
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.

Biophilic Design for All: Affordable, Low-Maintenance Materials That Mimic Nature
FREE
Description
Most architects have heard about biophilic design and agree with the concept of bringing the outdoors inside. However, very few designers take purposeful steps to incorporate it into their plans. Designers may assume that biophilic design is expensive or high maintenance, reserved for only those high-end projects. One may assume that bringing nature inside is complicated and requires customization. An architect may assume that some projects don’t warrant biophilia, like a warehouse. In this one-hour course, we’ll address those assumptions that hold architects back. We’ll introduce a simulated-wood product that mimics nature and delivers that positive human response. You’ll see numerous design ideas and applications that exemplify economical and low maintenance solutions for any project type. At the end of...
