Writing Specifications for Sustainable Projects

1 AIA HSW/SD CE Hour

Provider: InfoSpec, Inc.| Course: ISP00A

Sponsor: SpexPlus, Inc.  

Presenter: Craig Haney

·         This one hour course will help the design professional to understand specifications for sustainable projects and best practices when specifying green products.

·         We will compare and contrast the differences between sustainable project specifications and those used for traditional projects while helping the design professional differentiate between legitimately sustainable products and those that have been green washed.

·         This course will conclude with a brief Q&A with our subject matter expert.

9:10 – 10:10 AM

Understanding Recycled Content Surfacing Material

1 AIA HSW/SD CE Hour (AIA Course: ICS06A);

1 GBCI CE Hour for LEED Professionals (GBCI Course ID: 0090003989); Provider: InfoSpec, Inc.

Sponsor: Cosentino

Presenter: Todd Schoenemann

·         This one hour live course describes the importance of recycled content surfacing products and how they affect a building's indoor environmental quality.

·         We will review how these materials are manufactured and specified and we will evaluate how they may contribute towards LEED project certification.

·         After a comparison on traditional and recycled surfacing materials, we will discuss the importance of going beyond "green".

10:20 – 11:20 AM

Exterior Continuous Insulated Claddings for Energy Efficiency and Architectural Diversity. 

1 AIA HSW/SD CE Hour

1 GBCI CE Hour for LEED Professionals (GBCI Course ID: 0090005704)

Provider: Dryvit System, Inc. | Course: BL0002

Presenter: JW Mollohan

·         Deconstruct the "perceived" value of traditional insulation methods and reduced performance within framed wall assemblies and reconstruct new strategies for developing true "effective" insulation value and high performance.

·         Identify and define model energy code and green design standard's requirements for exterior continuous insulation.

·         Differentiate between "prescriptive"  R-value "performance"  U-factor wall design paths and recognize where continuous insulation must be integrated.

·         Discover the interrelationship between exterior insulated cladding and the use of continuous insulation to achieve energy efficient, cost effective and aesthetically pleasing design solutions.
