Join the ROXUL EDC, Cosella-Dorken and Building Science Corporation to discuss and share in resolving common problems related to building design and construction. This full-day seminar will provide 5 CONTINUING EDUCATION LEARNING UNITS and will review the following learning objectives: Understand key building science principles related to a building enclosure’s function and components. Recognize and apply critical design principles and strategies to improve building enclosure performance. Understand the in-situ performance of building enclosure materials and systems. Gain awareness of emerging issues and trends in building enclosure design that may influence design decisions and building performance. Featured Speaker: Joseph Lstiburek, Ph.D., P.Eng. Joe Lstiburek is principal of Building Science Corporation. He is a building scientist who investigates building failures and is internationally recognized as an authority on moisture-related building problems and indoor air quality. He is an Adjunct Professor of Civil Engineering at the University of Toronto and the past chairman of ASTM E-241 – Increasing the Durability of Building Assemblies from Moisture Induced Damage. Dr. Lstiburek is an ASHRAE fellow and a contributor and reviewer for Chapters 21 and 22 of ASHRAE Fundamentals.
