Description

Designing for Sustainability in Division 8: Architectural Aluminum Framing

This course will be approved for 1 GBCI LEED Specific and AIA CE

This course will give attendees an overview of how standard architectural aluminum framing products offered in Division 8: Glass & Glazing can be a key element of a design team's LEED strategy. Standard components offered in architectural aluminum framing products can be major drivers for potential points in three categories: Enery and Atmosphere; Materials and Resources and Indoor Environmental Quality.

Total building construction costs and LEED strategies do not need to work against each other. A cost effective LEED strategy can be achieved in part by gaining an understanding of the proper application of many standard components and how they are best utilized. For example, improvements in thermal technology, along with higher performing insulated glass units, will increase the thermal performance of glazed elevations and enhance energy optimization. Additionally, proper use of shading devices allows for expanded glass areas, resulting in greater views and harvesting of natural light. Shading of the glazed area permits the use of glass with higher visible light transmission while reducing solar heat gain. And today, commercial windows are offered with triple glazed insulated glass units along with baffles in the aluminum profiles' cavities to prevent heat transfer through convection. This allows for leveraging Thermal Comfort and Enhanced Indoor Air Quality without sacrificing energy performance.

Keep in mind that when putting together an aggressive LEED strategy there is no need to pay for custom products. A proper understanding of the efficient application of standard products can position your project for the LEED certification process.

Trevor Elliot

Kawneer Company

To Trevor Elliott, the future matters. With the backdrop of the USGBC, most of us think sustainability, forward thinking in product design and green "efforts". All of these matter, but Trevor is working to take the perspective of his 2-1/2 year old son and where things will be when he grows and begins his life. While nearing completion of an MBA – with a focus on Innovation, holding USGBC, CSI, OSHA, Green Globe and various other certifications, Trevor works to embody what he believes, leaving this world a better place for our children. Managing the Order Pursuit efforts for Kawneer North America’s East and Central Region keeps most days full and exciting. Riding a bike to work every day and remaining active in community, regional, and national organizations occupy the balance of his time when not playing with and enjoying the best that the Shenandoah Valley has to offer his family.

Tyler Thomas

Tyler joined Kawneer Company in 2012 after beginning his career in the Residential Window and Siding industry. Over a six year period he has held front end positions in the Estimating, Project Management, and Inside Sales Departments before taking on the Architectural Sales Representative role in 2017. In this current position with the company he has been tasked with Architectural Promotion as well as management of all direct customer accounts throughout the state of Virginia. Tyler holds a Bachelor’s of Science Degree from Bridgewater College and is a lifelong resident of the Shenandoah Valley.

Fee: $10 for members and $20 for nonmembers.
