Making Zero Possible: Efficiency-First Decarbonization
$40
Description
This session describes a process for designing buildings that couple reductions in greenhouse gas emissions with reductions in energy use. Proceeding along the project roadmap from pre-design through building occupancy, we will take a look at key decision points at each phase. Along with the emphasis on net zero design as a process, this session will take brief detours to explain related issues in building science, project management, and greenhouse gas accounting.

LEED Pilot Credit #103: Integrative Analysis of Building Materials
GRATUIT
Description
In the materials selection process, builders seek to balance numerous product performance attributes, including durability, aesthetics and health, safety and environmental impacts. Transparency and life cycle thinking are central components of a robust materials selection process, one that enables builders to choose the most appropriate materials for their project The U.S. Green Building Council now offers an innovative LEED pilot credit (#103), Integrative Analysis of Building Materials, to encourage building project teams to evaluate products and materials using available life cycle information to identify those that have positive environmental, health and safety impacts. The credit informs project team decisions by providing access to information shared by building materials manufacturers on their product’s life cycle impacts.

Understanding Material Hazard, Exposure and Risk in the Built Environment
GRATUIT
Description
Product and materials selection is a critical aspect of the building design and construction process. A variety of factors drive materials selection decisions, including sustainability, health and wellness issues like indoor air quality, and the desire for innovative, functional, state-of-the-art building spaces that meet 21st century needs.

Vinyl In Design - The Material for 21st- Century Building and Construction
GRATUIT
Description
Vinyl plays a major role in the design and construction of modern buildings. It contributes to sustainability and to the wellness and resilience of people and their communities. This continuing education session will demonstrate the importance of achieving client performance goals using thoughtful, multi-attribute material selection criteria. It will also show how flawed prescriptive material choices can lead to unintended consequences.

Ethics and the Environment: An Architect’s Intent, Process, and Path to Net Zero
$10
Description
The topic of ethics has never been more prevalent for today’s architects, especially in our obligation to the environment. With new data constantly published about the human toll on today’s world, the construction industry must take purposeful steps to not only reduce the environmental impact in the building process but also promote a sustainable design that will last for generations. This two-hour presentation will discuss ethics and the architect’s obligation to the environment. We’ll review what it means to meet Net-Zero goals and the outside influences, including cost, that may pose challenges.

Shining Light on EPDs - Comparing the Environmental Performance of Building Products
GRATUIT
Description
Over the past few years, demand for tools like Environmental Product Declarations has been growing among the green building industry. Primarily intended for a specialized audience, life cycle assessments and their results displayed in standardized documents named EPDs are out in the open for everyone to see. However, EPDs are not mere documentation and are very technical. Green Building Programs, such as LEED, requiring EPDs for credit achievement have forced unspecialized professionals to understand it. This course is intended to give you the tools you need to get your head around EPDs and be able to compare them if needed.
