SUMMARY:Stretch Energy Code Envelope Part 3: Derating Existing Buildings
DESCRIPTION:About the Massachusetts Stretch Energy Code Training SeriesLearn more about the MA Stretch Energy Code envelope requirements. Built Environment Plus has collaborated with AIA Massachusetts and the Sponsors of Mass Save® to develop this brand new series for mid-level architects\, engineers\, sustainability consultants\, envelope consultants and contractors. Attend one\, three\, or all sessions depending on your training needs. \nAbout the Session: Stretch Energy Code Envelope Part 3In the prior session\, Stretch Energy Code Envelope Part 2: Derating New Construction\, attendees gain an understanding of the thermal bridging types\, how to derate for each one\, and how to calculate the u-factor of an assembly accounting for the derating. This session will build upon Part 2\, with a focus on existing buildings. Existing buildings have unique circumstances that impact the type of performance upgrades that should be implemented \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Trainees who provide their AIA Member number with registration will earn 2 AIA LU | HSW learning units for this training. \nThis is a live\, online training led by Andrew Steingiser and Luc Nahrgang with RDH Building Science Inc.  \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Andrew Steingiser\, RA\, CPHC\, LEED AP\, is the Passive House lead in RDH’s Boston office and a Senior Project Architect. Andrew engages building owners and design teams as an early-phase design partner\, consulting with them on scalable climate-resilient solutions. He champions operational and embodied carbon reduction of the built environment through clean\, resilient\, and future-proof buildings. An expert on local and regional regulations\, Andrew helps RDH’s clients future proof their projects. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Lucas Nahrgang\, PE\, is a Principal and Building Science Specialist with the RDH Boston team. He is a Principal for both new construction and existing buildings projects\, including rehabilitation and renewal projects for existing buildings and enclosure consulting and building enclosure commissioning (BECx) on new construction. Lucas performs a variety of services on these projects\, including enclosure design review\, detail development\, performance specifying\, construction review\, and field troubleshooting. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Kate Bubriski\, AIA\, CPHC\, LEED AP BD+C\, Fitwel Ambassador\, is a Principal and Director of Sustainability & Building Performance with Arrowstreet. Over the last twenty years\, Kate has completed numerous high-performing buildings\, working with clients to ensure building performance simultaneously creates social\, health\, environmental\, and economic benefits. She is a national leader in net zero energy\, embodied carbon\, building certifications\, materials evaluation\, and occupant engagement. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Alison Nash\, AIA\, LEED AP ID+C\, CPHC\, WELL AP\, is an Associate and Sustainability Coordinator with Sasaki. Alison inspires integrated design teams to deliver sustainable design outcomes for a wide-range of projects that include planning\, urban design\, landscape\, ecology\, architecture\, and interiors. In addition\, Alison guides and contributes to workflows and analysis tools to lower embodied and operational carbon and to advance healthy material selections across Sasaki’s built projects. Alison is a contributor and technical advisor for Sasaki’s Carbon Conscience open source tool. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Rebecca Berry\, AIA\, LEED AP\, leads Finegold Alexander’s higher education\, institutional and religious practice areas. She is also Finegold Alexander’s Director of Sustainability\, promoting sustainable design practices\, conversations and reviews firm wide. Rebecca is also Director of FA Energy\, a new Firm division which is focused on providing integrated solutions for decarbonizing existing and historic structures and helping institutions\, municipalities and state agencies achieve their climate goals. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Series Sessions\n				TEDI ModelingThis session will review the method and best practices of conducting a Thermal Energy Demand Intensity (TEDI) model as required for compliance with the Stretch Energy Code.  \nStretch Energy Code Envelope Part 1: Exploring the Basics This session will explore the prescriptive envelope requirements of the 2023 Massachusetts Stretch Energy Code\, methods for determining u-factors of assemblies\, and how to calculate the component performance calculation.  \nStretch Energy Code Envelope Part 2: Derating New ConstructionThis session will explain thermal bridge types\, how to derate for each one\, and how to perform calculations to determine the u-factor of an assembly accounting for the derating.  \nStretch Energy Code Envelope Part 3: Derating Existing BuildingsThis session will build upon Part 2 with a focus on existing buildings. \nSpecifying Your Building Envelope to Meet the New Mass Energy CodeThis session will cover some common project types and focus on what to do early in the project to successfully meet new building envelope requirements in your specifications. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Session Learning Objectives\n				1. Be able to identify typical thermal bridges in existing buildings.2. Differentiate between the building enclosure requirements for Alterations\, Change of Occupancy\, and Additions.3. Understand the common thermal bridges unique to existing buildings\, and how to best mitigate the ones that are mitigatable. 4. Understand the balance between window and opaque wall U-values\, particularly with interior-insulated enclosure retrofit strategies.5. Clarify how hygrothermal considerations relate to existing building enclosure retrofits.6. Complete a derating exercise on an example building. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Pricing Bundle Available\n				Register for one\, multiple\, or all five sessions in the series.
