Specifying Fiber Cement Wall Systems
Best Practices for Modern Buildings
Sustainable and High-Performance Facades
2 LU/HSW (AIA Registerd Program)
Date: October 21st, 2021
Time: 10am - 12pm PT
Guest Speaker: Ajla Aksamija, PhD,LEED AP BD+C, CDT
This 1.5-hour presentation will cover methods for designing sustainable, high-performance facades, and the necessary steps in ensuring that the environmental factors and energy-efficiency strategies are integrated with the design process. The facade is one of the most significant contributors to the energy budget and the comfort parameters of any building. High-performance facades use the least possible amount of energy to maintain a comfortable interior environment, which promotes the health and well-being of building’s occupants.
The participants of the presentation will learn about the following aspects:
The learning objectives for the presentation are:
The covered material is based on Dr. Aksamija’s book Sustainable Facades: Design Methods for High-Performance Building Envelopes (John Wiley & Sons, 2013).
