SUMMARY:BEC Houston Lunch & Learn
DESCRIPTION:Building Enclosure Commissioning (BECx): Ensuring Comfort\, Durability\, and Health – 1.0 AIA LU/HSW   \nPresenter – Kayla Maines \nBuilding Enclosure Commissioning (BECx) is a quality-assurance process to ensure that a building\, when delivered\, meets the Owner’s Project Requirements (OPR).  Commissioning begins at the start of a project\, known as Pre-Design\, continues through the design and construction phases of the project\, and is even observed a year after occupancy\, sometimes longer depending on if seasonal commissioning is desired. The process is more than a single review of the Contract Documents\, just system testing\, providing check lists\, only observing of construction\, or only involving HVAC equipment. BECx is a combination of these types of tasks throughout the life of the project and involves the enclosure systems (exterior walls\, foundation\, and roof) to reduce Owner’s risk. We will review what BECx is and exploring the process by reviewing two case studies where BECx was utilized on projects. \nCodes\, Commissioning and Testing     \nPresenter – Jonathan Curtain \nHow the 2021 IECC Changes Affect Building Design\, and How to Use Commissioning to Solve Project Problems \nCodes are an ever-evolving challenge and opportunity for designers as they update in response to new products\, requirements\, and issues.  These changes to codes can have major impacts on how buildings are designed and constructed\, and are often associated with improving health and safety of building occupants.  This presentation seeks to help designers understand recent major code updates that will have an effect on building design\, how the commissioning process is essential to meeting these requirements\, and how it can be used to solve building challenges. \nSchedule: \n\n11:00am – Check-in and lunch\n11:30am-1:00pm – Presentations\n\nAdditional Information: \n\nPre registration includes box lunch.\nParking is not included.\nA minimum of 3 business days’ notice is required to receive a full refund if you need to cancel your reservation.
