SUMMARY:BEC Greater Detroit Presents ABAA Day Detroit 2026
DESCRIPTION:Earn up to 4.5 LU/HSW \nRegister Today \n\nProgram Agenda\n8:30-8:45AM Check-in\, Continental Breakfast\, Sponsor Displays & Networking \n8:45-9:00AM Opening Remarks \n9:00-10:00AM\nAirtightness Testing Goes Extreme 1.0 LU/HSW\nPamela Jergenson\, FCSI\, CCS\, CxA\, CABS\, Technical Director\, Building Science Solutions\, Intertek\nIncomplete or unclear drawings often lead to performance issues in the field. This session reviews building science fundamentals and shows how to improve detail clarity at foundations\, roofs\, windows\, penetrations\, and material transitions to support durable\, energy-efficient enclosures. \n10:00-10:30AM Morning Break\, Sponsor Displays \n10:30-11:30AM\nAdventures in Hygrothermal Modeling 1.0 LU/HSW\nKeith Simon\, FAIA\, Vice President\, Design Phase Services\, Salas O’Brien\nThis session demonstrates how hygrothermal modeling replaces rules of thumb with data-driven insights. Through case studies\, it examines when perm ratings matter\, how roof membrane color and cool roofing affect performance\, and when high-temperature membranes are truly required for durability. \n11:30AM-1:00PM Lunch Break\, Sponsor Displays \n1:00-2:00PM\nSelf-Adhered Membrane Applications: What Does It Really Mean to Stick? 1.0 LU/HSW\nCody Shelner\, PE\, Head of Marketing\, Air & Waterproofing\, tesa Air & Waterproofing\nWhile self-adhered membranes are popular for their ease of use\, performance depends on more than peel adhesion. This presentation reviews the forces these systems must resist—wind\, stack effect\, and pressurization—and explains why comprehensive performance testing is essential for long-term durability. \n2:00-2:30PM Afternoon Break\, Sponsor Displays \n2:30-4:00PM\nUnderstanding Difficult Critical Transitions of Air\, Vapor\, and Moisture Barriers 1.5 LU/HSW\nCorey Zussman\, AIA\, NCARB\, CABS\, QA/QC Vice President\, AECOM Hunt Construction\nThis presentation identifies challenging critical transitions in complex building types and provides tools to understand proper sequencing and detailing. Using construction drawings and real-world installation photos\, it highlights strategies to prevent constructability issues and costly rework in the field. \n4:00PM Closing Remarks \n\nRegistration Fee: $50 \nVenue:\nUniversity of Detroit Mercy\nStudent Union Building\nBallroom (2nd Floor)

SUMMARY:Whole Building Air Tightness Tests: Building Preparation and Sampling 1.0 CEU/HSW
DESCRIPTION:Whole Building Air Tightness Tests: Building Preparation and Sampling\nAll measurement tests inherently have error associated with the testing procedures\, and whole building airtightness is no exception. Whole building airtightness testing is typically performed on construction sites\, for buildings of various size and shape\, sometimes still in various stages of construction. Different techniques are often used to prepare buildings for the test. This includes methods for temporary sealing of intentional openings. Currently\, the degree of error associated with different techniques is unknown. This presentation will review different techniques for preparing and testing large scale buildings\, review the results of over 200 large scale whole building airtightness tests\, and look at the comparative results from different methods of building preparation to assess the potential error associated with different building preparation techniques. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nUnderstand the different methods of temporary sealing and building preparations required before testing\nDescribe the relative effectiveness of different building preparation methods\n Understand the function of a whole building air barrier test\nPredict what methods of preparation will lead to tighter test results\n\nRegister Now \nBrad Carmichael\, PE\, BEMP\, CPHC\, Principal\, 4EA Building Science \nBrad has been consulting on building enclosures throughout North America for over a decade. Brad is passionate about good design and the role it can play in social and environmental stewardship. He believes that durable and efficient building enclosures are critical for a built environment that is low consumption and long lasting. Brad has consulted on a wide array of different project types and sectors\, including high rises\, healthcare facilities\, cultural institutions\, workspaces\, affordable housing\, and historic landmarks. \n
