SUMMARY:Managing Condensation and Thermal Performance with Continuous Insulation
DESCRIPTION:Building codes and green building standards are continuing to raise the bar on energy efficiency and high-performance buildings. In wood-framed buildings designing for thermal and moisture management in wall cavities\, as well as air tightness of the building enclosure\, are all core components to creating advanced building enclosures. This presentation will discuss the need for exterior insulation to manage heat transfer and reduce condensation in exterior walls by providing step-by-step examples of how to determine the amount of continuous insulation required to meet prescriptive code requirements depending on climate zone. \nAfter completing this course\, participants will be equipped to: \n\nExplain the concept of thermal bridging and how it impacts building energy usage in green and sustainability building design.\nDefine the commercial and residential wood frame wall insulation requirements found in the 2015 IECC\nExplain how condensation forms in wall cavities and investigate strategies to mitigate risk of damage to construction while maintaining sustainable and healthy indoor environments.\nIdentify the practical and green building characteristics of continuous insulation as part of the exteriors wall sheathing compared with other alternatives.\n\nEarn 1.0 AIA LU | HSW \nRegister online.

SUMMARY:Combining Design and Function in Today’s ADA Compliant Bathroom
DESCRIPTION:Offered and presented by Schluter Systems L.P. \nMandated requirements for ADA compliancy and demand from an aging population are creating a growing need for barrier-free bathrooms. Today’s ADA compliant bathroom no longer has to be utilitarian or “institutional” in its design. Design options are enhanced through the use of tile and innovative construction methods. The result is beautiful bathrooms that also adhere to ADA standards for accessible design. \nLearning Objectives\n– How barrier-free environments can be customized to include various design elements while remaining ADA compliant.\n– Why bonded waterproofing technology lends itself to the construction requirements of barrier-free design.\n– The principle of uncoupling\, its functions\, and history.\n– The evolution of tile setting techniques along with the benefits and limitations of each stage of development. \nPresented by Gustavo Tovar\, Schluter Systems L.P.\nArchitectural Manager\, Mid Atlantic \nSCHLUTER SYSTEMS L.P.\nProvider # : J360\nCourse: SCHL5A \nOrganized by AIA Northern Virginia \nRegister online.

Rising Collective reflects on the spirit of togetherness\, of unity and the value of partnership during arduous times. At Women in Green\, we’ll use our collective voice to help strengthen our work in an effort to rise farther\, faster. USGBC is committed to doubling down on these concepts to help create a better\, more equitable road ahead. \nIn its 11th year\, Women in Green provides a space for leaders who are shifting the narrative on empowerment\, access\, and impact.

SUMMARY:Architects Speak Up! Message Book Training
DESCRIPTION:While there is great respect for architects\, there’s little understanding of what we do\, or how our work affects others. Architectural practice is constantly evolving. To move the profession forward\, architects must work together to understand each other and communicate our value. Using findings from extensive research the AIA conducted about the general public’s perception of architects and architecture\, this presentation will review proven messaging strategies\, the importance of the words you use\, and how to make your message resonate with legislators\, your clients\, and the public. It’s our job to help others understand what we do\, and more importantly\, why it’s important to them. \nRegister. \nEarn 1.0 AIA LU | Elective \nHaven’t registered for the full Architects Speak Up! program yet? Sign up today to be part of Architects Speak Up! 2022.

SUMMARY:Great Minds Tour
DESCRIPTION:On April 21\, 2022 from 5:30-7:30 Modern Richmond will offer a tour and talk at the newly renovated space for Great Minds. Great Minds’ goal is to improve Pre-K through grade 12 education by supporting teachers with knowledge-driven and coherent curriculum materials and services in math\, English\, science\, history and other subjects. \nIn 2020 Great Minds made the decision to relocate from Washington DC to Richmond. The relocation effort was led by founder and CEO\, Lynne Munson. She became enamored with 840 Hermitage Road. A diamond in the rough at the time\, the building embodied authentic craft and purposeful design. Three years later\, Great Minds now occupies its new location as a house of knowledge\, a place of innovation and thought leadership\, and a study of workplace innovation. \nDesigned with a reverence for the historic structure\, the modern intervention is set purposely to invite a creative dialogue. The new architecture is minimal and reserved\, allowing it to be a canvas for artwork and modernist furnishings. Stan\, a full sized 40-foot scientific replica of a T-Rex\, acts as an ambassador of perpetual curiosity and wonder. The space serves a variety of uses from everyday workplace\, leadership and academic team retreats\, media events\, and ultimately\, school group tours. \nSpeakers for this event include: \nLynne Munson – Founder and CEO of Great Minds\nPeter Fraser – Director of Brand Experience at Great Minds\nJessie Gemmer – Architect at Fultz&Singh Architects\nAmrit Singh – Partner at Fultz&Singh Architects\nBrad Sauer – Sauer Properties\nModerated by Helen Reed – Modern Richmond Past Chair+Director of Marketing \nRegister online. \nFree parking is available adjacent to the building\, which is located at 840 Hermitage Road in Sauer Center.

SUMMARY:Careers in Modernism
DESCRIPTION:“Careers in Modernism” will highlight the work of Will Scribner\, FAIA and Sanford Bond\, FAIA\, architects whose work has enhanced Richmond’s built environment starting in the 1970s. Both Will and Sandy have been awarded the Noland Medal\, the highest honor bestowed by the AIA Virginia\, in recognition of their architectural accomplishments over time\, and celebrating their efforts beyond the expected scope of the profession. \nWill and Sandy both began their careers in Richmond at Glave Newman Anderson (now Glave & Holmes)\, a firm whose projects celebrated modern architecture\, whether in buildings they renovated and expanded or in new construction. Sandy and Will later started their own firms. First Sandy started SB Architects\, later opened BCWH with three partners\, and finally co-founded 3North. In 1992 Will established Scriber Messer Brady & Wade\, now known as SMBW\, with three partners. \nTheir projects have consistently raised the bar of modern design in our city and wherever they have worked. \nOur conversation with Will and Sandy will be moderated by Modern Richmond board members Mimi Sadler and Maggie Schubert. \nRegister online.
