Fenestration’s Role in Resilient Design

Presented by Loewen Windows and Doors

This course will explore the growing importance of resilient building design as a result of accelerating climate change and extreme weather events.
We will discuss resilient design principles and fenestration’s role in resilient design, including; the importance of building product durability, energy efficiency, storm and hurricane protection, and how simple, passive, and flexible systems are more resilient.
The course will also explore the future of fenestration and emerging window technologies that will be able to respond to climate and weather concerns as well as occupant preferences.
