Although not the most energy or carbon-intensive building type overall, the 24 hour/365 day operation of these buildings, coupled with high demand for new housing, have great implications for decarbonization. Through three case studies (all CEC “EPIC Challenge” winners), Part 2 of Zero Carbon Multifamily Residential Buildings will explore the broader context of decarbonization in multifamily buildings, discussing how to implement and benefit from emerging technologies and walking through methods that can help achieve affordable, equitable, climate-resilient, cost-competitive, and emissions-free residential construction.

Resilience and the Evolving Standard of Care Series Part 2: New Standard of Care Includes Integrated Resilience Design

Virtual

This session qualifies for 1.5 LU/HSW (live webinar attendees only). Don’t miss your chance to attend! Registration closes at 10am, Wednesday, January 29. You should receive your Zoom confirmation link no later than 10:30am the day of.  Architects should be aware of changes in the industry standard of care, the role of codes and standards, and how courts view an architect’s responsibility in the context of worsening weather conditions. If design professionals aren't considering future climate conditions when designing structures and communities, then who will? “If not you, who” directs attention to the intersection of strategies for mitigation of severe climate occurrences, evolving legal standards, and the shifting industry standard of care. The effects of severe climate events on design professionals, their clients, construction companies, and corporations are drivers of resiliency and risk management strategies to reduce exposure, protect property, and income streams of clients. In this second installment of the Resilience and the Evolving Standard of Care series, presenters will describe through case studies resilient design strategies employed, discuss the exemplary features of the various projects, and consider problems encountered and lessons learned that can help other practitioners to achieve similar levels of performance in their own projects. Speakers: Note: Tickets are non-refundable. AIA CA is not accepting American Express at this time.
