Exterior Continuous Insulated Claddings for Energy Efficiency and Architectural Diversity
1 AIA HSW/SD CE Hour
1 GBCI CE Hour for LEED Professionals (GBCI Course ID: 0090005704)
Provider: Dryvit System, Inc. | Course: BL0002
Presenter: JW Mollohan 

• Deconstruct the "perceived" value of traditional insulation methods and reduced performance within framed wall assemblies and reconstruct new strategies for developing true "effective" insulation value and high performance.
• Identify and define model energy code and green design standard's requirements for exterior continuous insulation. 
• Differentiate between "prescriptive” R-value "performance” U-factor wall design paths and recognize where continuous insulation must be integrated.
• Discover the interrelationship between exterior insulated cladding and the use of continuous insulation to achieve energy efficient, cost effective and aesthetically pleasing design solutions.

9:10 - 10:10 AM

Thermoplastic Roof Membranes - Characteristics, Applications, & Attributes
1 AIA HSW/SD CE Hour
Provider: Carlisle Syntec | Course: SDR110
Presenter: Randy Ober 

• The program will cover a broad range of subjects including: different types of Thermoplastics, environmental impacts and membrane performance.
• Learn the industry trends in the use of various roofing systems and why these trends are occurring.
• Learn about the various types of thermoplastic membranes (compounds, fabric reinforcements,
• Fleece backings) and the latest technology in membrane securement.
• Learn about thermoplastic membrane reflectivity levels (new and aged) and how this affects energy usage, potential condensation accumulation, and LEED certification.
• Learn how environmental forces (UV, heat, wind, etc.) affect long-term thermoplastic roofing membrane performance.

10:20 - 11:20

Provider: InfoSpec, Inc.

Sponsor: Cosentino

Presenter: Todd Schoenemann

• This one hour live course describes the importance of recycled content surfacing products and how they affect a building's indoor environmental quality.
• We will review how these materials are manufactured and specified and we will evaluate how they may contribute towards LEED project certification.
• After a comparison on traditional and recycled surfacing materials, we will discuss the importance of going beyond "green".

2:40 – 3:40 PM

 Pearl: Brewing New Architectural History

1 AIA HSW/SD CE Hour | Course: TXSA392012

Provider: AIA San Antonio

Presenter: Jeff Fetzer

Pearl Brewery is a 22-acre historic and industrial site on the banks of the San Antonio River that served as a major brewery from 1881-2001. Its original Spanish-style structures were built for brewing, bottling, storage and shipping. When beer production ended in 2001, it left a void in activity near the famed River Walk and San Antonio College. Developer Silver Ventures purchased the site in 2002. Today, Pearl Brewery is a culinary and cultural destination set amid a tapestry of historic and contemporary structures, gardens, plazas, public pathways, open spaces and tree-lined streets.
