Canopy systems are important additions to the building envelope, as well as providing a beautiful, unique aesthetic. Additionally, canopy systems require proper planning, knowledge, and a well-kept timeline. Architectural choices should drive the project, and as a result, the cost. In order to achieve the full...

The challenge for plumbing design professionals is finding the right balance between performance and efficiency in water heating systems. A review of pluming code requirements and insights into specification considerations will be shared. This course will identify types of water heating technologies with a focus on...

To educate about ‘Building Longevity and Sustainability’ and how these concepts impact making buildings more energy efficient. The course examines how foil-faced polyiso continuous insulation can function as multiple control layers, providing Air and Water Resistive Barriers, in addition to providing a thermal control...

In this one hour course, we will evaluate hydrophobic coating as a solution for many common problems encountered during the life-cycle of a building. Some of the easily recognized benefits of a protective coating including a decrease in environmental damage to exterior glazing, significant reduction in building...

This course discusses the benefits of a thoughtfully- designed light control system and how to make it work for your project's natural-lighting and shading needs. The discussion emphases implementing design methods including specification of technologies such as sun shade and canopy systems that creates useful and...

Canopy systems are sometimes one of those building elements that gets taken for granted or overlooked, despite the important role they play in providing coverage, shading and reduced heat gain to a building. The integration of these systems with other exterior building systems also often ends up becoming an afterthought...

Discuss ANSI Z358.1 compliance as it refers to tepid water and share insights into safety system design and specifications. Consider the right balance between performance and efficiency in tepid water systems. Review current water heating technologies with a focus on tank less electric water heating features and...

This course will better inform the architect and designer about decorative hardwood plywood in terms of its manufacture, uses, types, and sustainable attributes. The architect and the designer will gain an understanding of the different adhesives and core material options available, which options are more sustainable...

Doors help today's green buildings increase energy and resource efficiency as well as create safer and healthier work places. In this one-hour live webinar we will review the inherently sustainable attributes of doors. Environmental responsibility goes far beyond the mere selection of wood doors for a project. We will...

In this one-hour course, we’ll discuss the evolution of electric hand dryers and how today’s high-speed, energy efficient dryers minimize impacts on the environment while providing a speedy and efficient user experience with lower operation and maintenance costs. We’ll also explore an array of high-speed hand dryer...
