SUMMARY:Let's Start the Climate Take Back
DESCRIPTION:According to research conducted by Interface and Net Impact\, 95% of climate experts believe that it is possible to reverse global warming and 91% of young leaders agree. The reason that both think it is possible is because we have everything we need\, and both think the only thing that stands in our way is business as usual. Last year\, the most comprehensive guide to reversing global warming was introduced by Paul Hawken entitled Drawdown followed by Bruce King™s The New Carbon Architecture. Interface™s ‘Climate Take Back’ plan offers an easy-to-understand framework which can be understood\, adopted\, and implemented by any organization. The research and the framework will be provided to all participants. \nCEU is AIA\, IDCEC\, HSW\, and GBCI approved. \nRegister online and enter the code 4X1Z

How will this effect your industry\, your investment choices\, and your personal retirement planning? \nThis webinar presentation will include relevant historical evidence and solution-based strategies to help solve the complex issues of investment\, tax\, and legacy planning for you and your family. The goal of presentation is to share some insight into how to better prepare for these potential changes and address what specific moves it takes for you to build\, implement and maintain a solid\, comprehensive retirement and legacy plan that is adaptable\, preemptive\, and well positioned for success given your unique situation. \nEarn 1.0 AIA LU | Elective \nRegister online.

SUMMARY:Enduring Beauty: High Performance Open Jointed Cladding Systems
DESCRIPTION:This course encourages participants to think outside the box and consider using polymer cladding as a material to create aesthetic\, enduring\, and moisture resistant rainscreens that will better protect buildings and its occupants. \nWe will discuss other more commonly used products and the issues faced with each. We will also consider life cycle costs of various cladding options\, including polymer. Finally\, participants will leave with a thorough understanding of how to install polymer extrusions as cladding. We will explore doing so on different substrates\, detailing around openings\, transitions between differing cladding materials and how to handle joints between cladding components with the goal of using polymer to promote health\, safety\, and welfare of both people and the environment. \nEarn 1.0 AIA LU | HSW \nRegister online.

SUMMARY:Insulated Metal Panels: The Perfect Envelope Solution
DESCRIPTION:This course reduces a relatively complex subject into practical concepts for the building designer. \nReview the physics of building envelopes\, including hygrothermal loads\, control layers\, climate zones and cladding functions. \nStudy the importance of control layer continuity at wall\, roof\, and slab connections. \nLook at how IMPs perform the same functions as multi-component wall systems through the use of panels joints\, sealants and an insulating core. \nDescribe the concept of the “Perfect/Universal Wall\,” and how to utilize the proper ordering of wall components to greatly simplify wall design in all climate zones. \nThis course also touches on Energy codes\, including their impact on the use of “Perfect/Universal Wall” designs. \nEarn 1.0 AIA LU | HSW \nRegister online. \nPresented in collaboration with Metl-Span.

SUMMARY:Optimized Acoustics
DESCRIPTION:Complying with the more stringent acoustic performance criteria in the standards\, guidelines\, and building rating systems has become more challenging in today’s predominantly larger and more open commercial interiors. This is in part due to trends towards more reflective floor materials\, fewer walls\, and an abundance of glass. Higher amounts of sound absorption are required to limit reverberation\, increase speech intelligibility and prevent widespread noise disturbances. This presentation will educate designers on achieving the required amount of noise control using high-performance\, modular\, acoustic ceilings. In locations where transmission of noise from one room into another needs to be prevented\, the use of ceilings alone as sound blockers\, for example when the demising wall stops at the ceiling level\, no longer complies with the standards\, guidelines and rating systems. This presentation will educate designers on blocking sound using walls and lightweight plenum barriers so that their designs comply not only with user expectations\, but also the higher sound isolation criteria in the acoustics standards and guidelines. \nEarn 1.0 AIA LU | HSW \nRegister online. \nPresented in collaboration with Rockfon.

SUMMARY:Equity in the Built Environment: Improving Racial Equity through Greener Design
DESCRIPTION:Understand how architects across the U.S. are working to improve the environmental and social sustainability of communities by protecting neighborhoods from gentrification\, installing parks and public art exhibits in urban centers\, and creating state-of-the-art libraries in financially challenged neighborhoods. Antoine Bryant\, Assoc. AIA\, project manager and business development at the Houston office of Moody Nolan; Gabrielle Bullock\, FAIA\, a principal and the director of global diversity at Perkins&Will in Los Angeles; and Rico Quirindongo\, AIA\, formerly a principal at DLR Group\, now Deputy Director for City of Seattle Office of Planning and Community Development; discuss their work in these cities. Projects discussed include Midtown Public Square in Seattle; Destination Crenshaw in Los Angeles; and the Library Learning Center in Houston. \nImproving Racial Equity Through Greener Design is based on the American Institute of Architects’ Blueprint for Better campaign to transform the day-to-day practice of architecture to achieve a zero-carbon\, resilient\, healthy\, just\, and equitable built environment. \nThis program continues the National Building Museum’s Equity in the Built Environment series of conversations that focus on how buildings\, landscapes\, interiors\, and streets can be the cause of—and\, more important\, the cure for—social and racial disparities. \n\nRegister online.

SUMMARY:Landscapes of Learning: The Heights Building
DESCRIPTION:A Panel Discussion with Bjarke Ingels Group\, Leo A. Daly\, Arlington Public Schools\, Silman\, and Gilbane \nJoin the AIA Northern Virginia Committee on Architecture for Education (CAE) and AIA Virginia at noon on Friday\, March 5\, 2021 for a virtual tour and panel discussion about the new Heights Building\, an Arlington Public School (APS) facility in Northern Virginia. \nThe structural masterpiece is inspired by the values and educational mission of APS and serves as a model example for innovative solutions to school design. Green terraces at each floor become an extension of the classrooms\, creating an indoor-outdoor learning landscape for both students and teachers — an educational oasis rather than a traditional school setting\, addressing the academic needs of the school’s program while forming a vertical community within its dense urban context. \nExplore the AIA Northern Virginia Virtual Tour site. Register online. \nThe panel discussion features speakers from Bjarke Ingels Group\, Leo A. Daly\, Arlington Public Schools\, Silman\, and Gilbane. \nAbout the Panel\nTony-Saba Shiber AIA | Senior Architect\, Designer at Bjarke Ingels GroupDaniel Sundlin | Partner\, Bjarke Ingels Group\nAran Coakley\, AIA | Project Manager\, Bjarke Ingels GroupTim Duffy\, AIA\, LEED AP\, CSI | Vice President\, Leo A.
