SUMMARY:Crafting High Performance Enclosures: Roofs\, Walls\, and Floors - Class 3 High Performance Fundamentals Series
DESCRIPTION:Register \nThis is class 3 of 6 in 3C-REN’s High Performance Fundamentals Certificate series. Earn a 3C-REN certificate of completion after finishing the series and passing short quizzes at the end of each class.  \n  \nBuilding enclosures – the roof\, walls\, and floor – are the first line of defense between nature and people. Enclosure performance is optimized when air sealing and insulation – two underappreciated and typically underperforming features – are done to high-performance standards rather than the status quo. The preceding class in our High Performance Fundamentals program (How Buildings Work; Science and Buildings and Science in Buildings) covered the scientific principles needed to effectively design high-performance buildings. This class covers installation — the practical application of those principles on the job site – the hands-on activities that differentiate ‘business-as-usual’ from high-performance construction. These include best practices for air sealing\, insulation installation\, and window installation\, along with the tools and methods (e.g.\, blower door testing) used to measure the quality of work\, and the metrics against which the work can be evaluated.   \n  \nLearning Objectives  \nAfter attending this class\, participants will be able to:  \n\nDescribe preferred methods and materials used for air sealing different types of building openings\, and how to test the results; \nExplain the difference between conventional insulation practices and “Quality Insulation Installation (QII)” methods\, and how QII is verified; \nIdentify five common building enclosure installation flaws and how to avoid them.  \nQuantify the magnitude of the gap between minimum energy code compliance and high performance\, where all energy features are confirmed with building performance test methods. \n\nInstructors: \n\nJudy Rachel\, Home Performance Pro

SUMMARY:High Performance Buildings & Careers - Class 1: High Performance Fundamentals Series
DESCRIPTION:Register \nThis is class 1 of 6 in 3C-REN’s High Performance Fundamentals Certificate series. Earn a 3C-REN certificate of completion after finishing the series and passing short quizzes at the end of each class.  \n  \nCode compliance is a minimum standard for building performance; by contrast\, “high performance” refers to buildings that are designed\, built\, and commissioned to exceed the performance of conventional buildings in energy efficiency\, durability\, comfort\, safety\, and indoor air quality. The magnitude of the opportunity to fill this gap cannot be over-emphasized. For example\, field research found that a single-day high-performance retrofit can improve HVAC system performance in new homes by an average of 25%. While the mainstream building industry strives for code compliance\, a small fraction of those in the industry adopt high-performance practices and produce homes and commercial facilities with lower energy use\, greater resilience\, exceptional durability\, outstanding comfort\, and low to zero onsite emissions. These individuals are consistently in demand\, command higher wages\, win awards\, and have the satisfaction of building a better world for themselves\, their families\, and communities. The secret sauce? Setting quantitative goals\, measuring performance\, and marketing the superior outcomes.   \n  \nThis class – the first of six in 3C-REN’s High Performance Fundamentals Program – is an introduction to the opportunities presented by working in the realm of high-performance buildings\, and how to create a place for yourself within that realm.   \n  \nLearning Objectives  \nAfter attending this class\, participants will be able to:  \n\nExplain the concept of high performance building and the roles of ‘building as a system\,’ building science\, and quantitative assessment in achieving high performance \nUnderstand the connections between high performance building\, human health\, resiliency\, climate change mitigation\, and State energy and climate regulatory trends \nEnumerate the benefits of high-performance building design\, construction\, and commissioning\, including providing quantitative examples of improvements that can be achieved by adopting a high-performance approach \nBegin transitioning to high-performance building practices \n\n  \n1.5 AIA|HSW LU’s available for this course \nInstructors: \n\nAnn Edminster\, Design AVEnues LLC

SUMMARY:Integrating Passive House Standards with CALGreen for Multifamily Buildings - Across California’s Climate Zones
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER\nPassive House is the most cost-effective and reliable method to achieve Zero Energy.  The standard has been successfully delivered in every climate zone.  Using Passive House building science ensures we squeeze out as much efficiency as possible before relying on renewable energy to deliver Net Zero performance.  Many California developers are aware that Passive House protocols deliver superior energy efficiency\, IAQ\, and resilience but\, our milder climate\, particularly along the coast\, requires sophisticated analysis of key metrics to make informed choices.  \nUsing live tools and holding a new pre-certified Passive House building constant\, we will demonstrate the impacts that changing climate assumptions have on predicted energy performance.  We will walk through the five key principals of Passive House the impacts to these building attributes from the changes to climate zone.  At all times\, we will demonstrate these impacts on whole-building performance key metrics defined by Passive House.  \nBecause the Passive House standard yield broad-reaching benefits beyond energy and carbon\, we will demonstrate the building science behind benefits like indoor air quality\, thermal comfort\, acoustical benefits\, outdoor air quality\, weather events\, power outages\, etc.     \nAs project teams have gained experience with Passive House\, we will share learnings on the tools teams are using to reduce the risks of investing in sustainability and increase the likelihood of the realization of performance.   Attendees will walk away understanding the following tools:   \n\nMetrics-based Owner’s Project Requirements \nPhysics-based modeling and simulation & Open-Sourcing for Team Collaboration \nCarbon Accounting and the Decarbonization Tool \nQuality Assurance\, Quality Control\, and the Construction Schedule \n\nOnce the benefits and design challenges of Passive House are thoroughly debated using tools and evidence\, we will turn our attention to the cost consequences of Passive House.  We will use the Auros database of project data to compare project costs of traditional/code-based construction versus Passive House buildings.  We will also share available cost mitigations in the forms of CEDA\, Inflation Reduction Act tax credits and other programs available in California.    \nThe live session will demonstrate how Passive House targets can be met in the San Francisco\, Los Angeles\, San Diego\, and Sacramento Climate Zones.  \n  \nLearning Objectives \n\nAttendees will be introduced to the underlying logic\, strategies\, tactics\, and tools to specify and achieve climate zone specific and optimal decarbonization\, indoor air quality and resilience in the design and construction of multifamily buildings.  \n\n\nAttendees will learn about integrated project teams developing metrics-based Owners Project Requirements (OPRs) and using physics-based modeling/simulation to identify the optimum performance (efficiency\, IAQ\, resilience\, durability\, ongoing maintenance\, and occupant experience) in different climate zones. \n\n\nAttendees will learn about the process and steps to ascertain and achieve optimum performance of the same multifamily building when designed for\, and constructed in\, San Francisco\, Los Angeles\, San Diego\, or Sacramento. \nAttendees will be informed about Federal\, state\, utility\, and other incentive programs (rebates\, tax credits\, financing options\, etc.) available for designing and constructing high-performance multifamily buildings in California.\nAttendees will be introduced to economic analysis that incorporates both first cost and ongoing value in order to ensure that the design and construction of high-performance multifamily buildings “pencil out” in any climate zone. \n\n1 AIA LU|HSW pending for this course \nEvent Hosted by:\n \nInstructors:\nBeth Eckenrode\, AUROS Group \nCraig Stevenson\, AUROS Group \nMatt Bowers\, AUROS Group
