Description

Structural engineers who have a basic understanding of thermal envelope performance and energy code compliance can greatly enhance the overall objectives of a building project. The proper detailing of exterior structural elements, especially avoiding thermal bridging conditions and foundation insulation, can help avoid problematic energy losses, increased operational carbon emissions, and reduce the potential for condensation. We’ll cover the basics of relevant aspects of energy codes and identify details to avoid and alternative design strategies.

Course will award 1.5 hours of continuing education
This course is Diamond Review approved in 49 states. New York does not accept hours from recordings.
