Built Green Project Basics

This class is occurring concurrently with the Built Green Conference. This ticket provides access to a specialized, four-part training track designed for project managers, site supervisors, and code officials to learn what is required to successfully achieve Built Green certification and high performing building enclosures. Entry to the conference is allowed starting at 9:45 a.m. This training does not provide access to any other Built Green Conference tracks, sessions, or keynote presentations. This ticket includes access to sponsorship expo, networking opportunities, a full lunch, and reception.

In part 1, Cybil will describe the benefits of certifying with Built Green, including what a verifier does and when they visit the site, outline the necessary documentation needed, discuss green features that project teams need to be aware of and how to successfully achieve certification.

In part 2, Josh will discuss the basic building science that informs why one should incorporate an effective air control layer and how that impacts not just energy usage but importantly, indoor air quality, comfort, durability and resilience in today's high performance homes. We will give examples of the two most common areas of air leakage in residential construction and present some straightforward and cost effective strategies to address these areas.

In parts 3 and 4, Josh will talk about the implications of HVAC on air tight homes. We will speak on the science behind balanced ventilation and distribution systems and the potential pitfalls that can occur if not done right. We will also talk about how the building's enclosure affects the heating and cooling system design and performance.
