AIA CA Climate Action Webinar Series | Storm Water as a Site Design Element

Buildings contribute nearly 40% of annual global CO2 emissions currently and about two-thirds of the global building stock will still exist in 2040. If not retrofitted, the existing buildings will continue to generate unsustainable levels of GHG emissions. Thus, this session will showcase how each one of these projects can be an ideal opportunity to incorporate enhanced energy performance strategies, while also addressing the time and cost of adopting sustainable practices. This session will walk you through the workflow for setting up a renovation project (Interior only and Interior + Exterior) for performance modeling inside the webapp cove.tool. It will also touch on taking advantage of other analysis types such as Daylight, Carbon, Cost and Water Use. Finally, we will look at a variety of renovation case studies emphasizing the same.

There are several analyses on assessing embodied and operational carbon for New Construction, but very little analysis done on Existing Building Renovations. The goal is to calculate the Carbon reduction when upgrading an existing building in comparison to the Carbon impact of a New Construction project. Develop new programs and legislature to incentivize building and material reuse.Date: 2/9/2022Units: Qualifies for Zero Net Carbon Design Mandatory Continuing Education.

February 17, 2022 11:30am-1pm California has been experiencing intensified impact from climate changes to our buildings and communities. This Townhall will gather practicing architects specializing in resilient design and government policy makers to discuss the roles California architects can play in advancing California’s ability to adapt, sustain, and thrive in a changing climate. The discussion of this Townhall will focus on innovation of design approach and codification of best practices in resilient design for wildfires, flooding, and sea level rise. There will be thought provoking dialogues on how California architects can respond and lead the evolving practice of architecture for climate resiliency. Earn 1.5 LU | HSW for attending. https://youtu.be/3zZmE82nJWk Moderator Tian Feng FAIA, FCSI President, California Architects Board District Architect, Bay Area Rapid Transit District Speakers Nuin-Tara Key Deputy Director, Climate Resilience Governor’s Office of Research & Planning Steve Winkel, FAIA PE Partner, The PREVIEW GROUP, Inc.

When: March 9th, 2022 12-1:30pmUnits: 1.5hrsSpeakers:Lisa Heschong, FIES | Heschong Mahone Group | Santa Cruz, CADescription:Views out of windows have traditionally been considered “nice to have”, but not crucial for human health and well-being. Even windows themselves are sometimes deemed unnecessary. However, evidence is mounting that quality views are essential for not only increased occupant comfort, satisfaction, and productivity, but long-term health.Lisa Heschong will address some of the following questions: Are there additional benefits of daylighting and quality views for interior spaces? How important is this exposure, for sleep quality, metabolic health, eye health and development, disorientation, depression, anxiety, and pain management? . She will also touch upon the role of view and daylight in early childhood development and end of life care, as well as the intersection of daylight and view with other current design concerns, such as equity, sustainability, climate changes and more!https://youtu.be/SkiBanGoPQI(Watching video recordings of past webinars does not give the opportunity to receive any AIA LUs / CE credit.)
