The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against developing mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already have a condition.

Education

Masonry materials can be used to create buildings with significantly less impact on the environment than many other materials, often yielding immediate and measurable results toward sustainability. Brick, stone, tile, terrazzo, marble, and plaster are known for their beauty and performance, and these same materials also play an important role in addressing the requirements for up to 52 points in LEED v.3 certified projects. This seminar will identify the specific contributions that masonry makes in the area of Sustainable Sites, Energy & Atmosphere, Materials & Resources, Indoor Environmental Quality and Innovation & Design. The program will also address the new requirements in LEED v. 3 and how they differ from those in LEED v. 2.2.

Tips for optimizing structural masonry

Scott Conwell, FAIA, FCSI

The focus of the seminar is to give participants a clearer understanding of the interrelationship in masonry buildings between materials, architecture, engineering and construction. Seemingly simple decisions can dramatically affect the building and understanding options available in materials, design and construction methods can result in more efficient and cost effective structures. Taught using a “Tips” format, the seminar highlights areas where proper understanding of masonry - from architectural and engineering design to materials to construction methods - can result in better completed buildings. Ways to use existing materials more effectively, explanations of the effect of one selection on another, discussions of new materials and current code and specification provisions are included.

Cold Weather Requirements for Masonry Construction

Scott Conwell, FAIA, FCSI

What happens if the mortar or grout is allowed to freeze? When is it appropriate to enclose and heat masonry construction? How does protecting for cold weather affect a project budget? These questions and more are covered in this program discussing typical methods of preventing cold weather masonry construction problems and how to deal with them if they occur. Included is a discussion of how to interpret and correctly apply the code provisions for successful cold weather construction, and what innovative techniques are used by contractors to mitigate the effects of cold weather.

With unparalleled good looks and design versatility, brick, stone, tile, and other masonry materials are among the top choices of architects and designers for projects of both traditional and contemporary design aesthetics. But beyond its beauty, masonry provides many benefits that may not be as immediately apparent. This program looks at masonry's ease of construction, its adaptability to site conditions, and its ability to meet an ambitious construction schedule. It addresses masonry's simultaneous performance as a structural system, high performance building envelope component, and attractive exterior cladding. The seminar also talks about masonry's fire resistance, durability, and low maintenance characteristics, as well as the sustainable attributes it provides in the areas of indoor environmental quality, materials and resources, and energy efficiency. Finally, the program addresses in detail the life cycle cost benefits of masonry, and what goes into training an abundant skilled workforce of qualified bricklayers and contractors.

Design Considerations for Large Format Tile

Scott Conwell, FAIA, FCSI

This course will examine design and installation considerations for large format ceramic and porcelain tile (LFT). It will define the sizing categories for tile, and will address opportunities and constraints unique to LFT as defined by ANSI standards and TCNA methods. It will address bonding pattern recommendations, acceptable warpage and lippage, and acceptable minimums &variation in grout joint width. The program will also take a close look at substrate preparation for LFT including substrate flatness tolerances. Finally, the program will provide information on the newly defined category of thin Gauged Porcelain Tile (GPT) and thin GPT slabs/panels, including an update on the new ANSI standards currently for this product category.

Designing with Tile

Scott Conwell, FAIA, FCSI

Attendees will develop an understanding of the various types of tile, setting methods, system components, design and installation considerations, specialty systems, and quality assurance. Attendees will learn how to use applicable codes and standards to design and specify tile work meeting minimum requirements and best practices. The program will emphasize design and installation requirements for large format tile, including substrate preparation. The program will also look at the new standards for coefficient of friction (COF). There will be a discussion of sustainable attributes of tile. The program will also address the new recommended specification language for installer qualifications appearing in the TCNA Handbook and MasterSpec.

Moisture Control for Masonry

Scott Conwell, FAIA, FCSI

This program takes a detailed look at a masonry cavity wall’s moisture management system, analyzing the components of air space, flashing, weeps, air barrier, mortar joints, drainage accessories, the masonry materials themselves, and perhaps the most critical component to a watertight wall, workmanship procedures. It will look at details and conditions throughout the wall that present unique opportunities for moisture intrusion via bulk water, air infiltration, and vapor diffusion, and how to mitigate moisture at these conditions.

This is a companion program to Moisture Control for Masonry, and therefore will not address the important topic of moisture. This program analyzes a masonry wall from the vantage point of quality control in both design and construction. It covers ASTM standards, brick and block selection, mortar types, and a detailed discussion of movement control for masonry. The program also looks at acceptable tolerances in materials and workmanship.
