SUMMARY:Continuing Education: Matter & Opinion | Existing Buildings
DESCRIPTION:A special series from the Boston Society of Architects \nWe cannot meet our future goals without utilizing our greatest built and cultural assets: existing buildings. Join the Boston Society for Architecture (BSA) this July and August for Matter & Opinion: Existing Buildings\, a 7-part program series on climate action and building the will. \nEvery Monday\, two client-and-designer teams will share the challenges\, triumphs\, and lessons learned from completed existing buildings projects. Following project-based presentations\, the client-and-designer teams–as well as session attendees–will discuss the hurdles to and pathways toward building the will around continued use and reuse of existing buildings for climate action. Project types and clients represented include housing (multifamily and residential design); workplace (mission-driven and commercial); and education facilities (higher education and K-12 schools). 1 LU HSW will be available for each session. \nEach session will feature clients and designers from education facilities (higher education and K-12 schools); workplaces (commercial and mission-driven) and housing (multifamily and residential). Attend one session\, a few\, or all seven! \nContinuing education will be offered. Register now.

SUMMARY:Sustainable and High-Performance Facades - ZOOM
DESCRIPTION:Register Now! \nThursday\, May 14| 4:00 – 5:15 PM | Zoom | 1 HSW \nSustainable and High-Performance Facades \nThe course will be presented by Ajla Aksamija\, PhD\, LEED AP BD+C\, CDT. Aksamija is an Associate Professor at UMass Amherst and a Building Technology Researcher at Perkins and Will. \nYou be familiar with Prof. Aksamija’s research — see page 7  of our spring newsletter here. \nRegister here \nThis 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 need to block adverse external environmental effects and maintain internal comfort conditions with minimum energy consumption\, and the location and climate become one of the crucial factors in selecting appropriate design strategies. \n The platform will be Zoom. Registrants will be provided with the login info.  Register here
