1 AIA HSW This course explains the NFPA 285 test method, its origin, its procedures, when it is required, and design considerations necessary for compliance. Criteria in ASHRAE 90.1 for continuous insulation and air/water resistive barriers are reviewed and identified as contributors to the rise of NFPA 285 requirements. It addresses code compliance in light of recent material changes, code changes, and additional testing. https://conta.cc/3NmHEaU

One of my favorite things about the construction industry is that there is always something new to learn about. The everchanging landscape of new equipment, new methods, new technology, and new materials contributes to a career that never gets boring.
What makes structures durable is not limited to the construction phase of a project. Consistent observation and maintenance are integral to maximizing service life. ICRI's webinar on March 20th will be presenting some of the industry's new and innovative ways to make structures last longer. https://lnkd.in/gBw8JWuV

Ian Abley's Presentation to Norfolk and Suffolk IFE Branch on 8 February Really looking forward to hearing an undoubted expert give an unbiased assessment of where we are with the 'Class O Conundrum'. 8th February 2024 3.30pm This is a double session starting at the slightly earlier time of 3.30pm, and ending 5.30 pm. This seminar has been approved for 2 hours IFE CPD Points ** the talk will start promptly at 3.30pm. Please join a minute or two early if you can** Summary: Class 0 was said to be the highest national performance classification for construction materials and products, such as in external walls, until the fatal fire of Grenfell Tower on 14 June 2017. Despite a warning about the potential combustibility of Class 0 “cladding” products from the Select Committee to the Ministry publishing statutory guidance after Garnock Court fire on 11 June 1999. Class 0 was defined in the statutory guidance of Approved Document Part B and not in any British Standard. When Grenfell Tower Inquiry finally reports by June 2024 it will be seven years since 72 deaths. That was an unnecessary and high price for British society to discover that Class 0 could in fact be achieved by composite products with highly combustible cores. This webinar explains the Class 0 Conundrum using the evidence in a continuing process of disclosure, which led to Inquiry publication in 2022 of the Research on the Approved Document And Revision (RADAR) project, undertaken with construction industry partners in 2000.

#GRCA #TechnicalTuesday; "Impact Resistance of GRC" The International Glassfibre Reinforced Concrete Association (GRCA) has a range of technical documents in its techNOTE series which feature advice on most aspects of glassfibre reinforced concrete #GRC / #GFRC specification, manufacture and use. The sixteenth in the series techNOTE 16 focuses on the Impact Resistance of GRC. It serves as an overview of previously established data, in addition to evaluating test results from impact tests undertaken by several manufacturers that maintain the Full Member grade status of GRCA. It is available to download at https://lnkd.in/e72Q2BJ6

Now available on CIM Academy 📚 https://lnkd.in/ghnsspFV Miss the live event? No worries, CIM Academy is ready when you are. This webinar is free for CIM National Members. #CIMacademy #CIMPD #MineEnvironment This presentation compares the structural performance and economic considerations of full carbon steel and full stainless steel headframes, including initial capital and long-term maintenance costs. Additionally, it explores a hybrid approach, strategically using carbon steel in low-contamination areas to reduce initial costs and significantly minimize future maintenance efforts.

Check out this article in the Spring Version of Sealant, Waterproofing & Restoration Institute's Applicator Magazine. This article compares the use of Silyl Terminated Polyether (STPE) technology in fluid applied air barriers vs. traditional technologies. The article, written by Roy F. Schauffele, FCSI, CDT, CCPR, FABAA, CABS, explains, in depth, the advantages of using STPE and how its performance can add to the longevity and sustainability of commercial projects.

On April 23rd at 10 am CST, Hunter Xci will be presenting their new AIA and IIBEC accredited course - Working Together: Weather Resistant Barriers and Continuous Insulation. Learn More & Register here: https://buff.ly/43XQraz Weather Resistant Barriers are a critical part of the wall assembly but so insulation. Which one is more important? After reviewing the history of Weather Resistant Barriers, we will discuss the answer to this question and review the expected performance aspects of WRBs and wall insulation. These wall system components must work together to create a wall system that is constructed based off of sound building science. Learning Objectives: - Understand the evolution of WRB materials in the construction industry. - Articulate the benefits and shortcomings of each WRB material involved with the various building envelope areas of use. - Understand and easily communicate why WRBs and continuous insulation are of equal importance. - Understand E96 testing methods and articulate why managing and controlling air and moisture intrusion leads to better performing structures. #schwabgroup #hunterxci #continuousinsulation #airbarriers #wallsystems #buildingenvelope
