Architects & LEED Professional CEU Seminar - Commercial, Institutional & Residential topics

08:00 AM - 09:00 AM

An in-depth understanding of moisture issues in concrete slabs and the deleterious effect of a high moisture vapor emission rate (MVER) on flooring finishes. The presentation will address “sick building syndrome” caused by excessive concrete moisture vapor emissions; the various industry-approved methods for testing of MVER and for generating accurate data; conditions that generate excessive moisture in slabs and how to resolve them; how MVER barrier technology works, and how and when to specify it; and ICRI’s certification program for moisture-testing technicians – the only certification program in the industry.

01:15 PM - 02:15 PM

Moisture damage contributes to 90% of all building and building material failures; making the management of moisture key to building longevity. The course will discuss the movement of moisture, cover some keys design issues, a better and best solution for moisture control, and how to integrate moisture control with exterior continuous insulation. After the course participants will have more tools for wall detailing.

Learning Objectives:
• Describe how moisture impacts building durability and define the mechanics of moisture movement.
• Identify common design details that can cause issues for moisture management.
• Write better specifications for moisture control utilizing better and best methods and have ASTM standard to reference for flashing openings.
• Understand the integration of a moisture control layer with exterior continuous insulation.
