SUMMARY:Designing for Sustainability in Division 8: Architectural Aluminum Framing 1.0 CEU/HSW
DESCRIPTION:“Designing for Sustainability in Division 8: Architectural Aluminum Framing” will give attendees an overview of how standard architectural aluminum framing products offered in Division 8: Glass & Glazing can be a key element of a design team’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED)* strategy. Standard components offered in architectural aluminum framing products can be major drivers for potential points in three categories: Energy and Atmosphere; Materials and Resources and Indoor Environmental Quality. \nTotal building construction costs and LEED strategies do not need to work against each other. A cost effective LEED strategy can be achieved in part by gaining an understanding of the proper application of many standard components and how they are best utilized. For example\, improvements in thermal technology\, along with higher performing insulated glass units\, will increase the thermal performance of glazed elevations and enhance energy optimization. Additionally\, proper use of shading devices allows for expanded glass areas\, resulting in greater views and harvesting of natural light. Shading of the glazed area permits the use of glass with higher visible light transmission while reducing solar heat gain. And today\, commercial windows are offered with triple glazed insulated glass units along with baffles in the aluminum profiles’ cavities to prevent heat transfer through convection. This allows for leveraging Thermal Comfort and Enhanced Indoor Air Quality without sacrificing energy performance. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nUnderstand Differences Between Product Certification and Whole Building Certification\nUnderstand Environmental Product Declarations and Building Product Disclosures\nUnderstand how Framing System Energy Performance Impacts Whole Building Sustainability Performance\nEvaluate Strategies for Daylighting\, Views\, Shading and Sound Transmission and Their Impact on Sustainability Performance\n\n  \nRegister Now \n  \nSneh Kumar\, Kawneer \nSneh Kumar is the Global Director of Sustainability and ESG for Arconic’s Building and Construction Systems (BCS) that includes Kawneer. Sneh is responsible for the development and execution of company’s sustainability & ESG strategy aimed at aiming to accelerating our journey from being a sustainable product manufacturer to a company that holistically cares for our planet and people across the entire value chain. With more than 20 years in the building products industry\, Sneh has been involved in the commercialization of over 40 high-performance building facade products and has received multiple patent grants. Sneh has been actively involved with industry associations\, architects\, and customers; and has served on the Board of the National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC). He is an invited speaker\, presenter\, and panelist at National\, International\, and Regional Conferences.
