Learning Objectives
Discuss the use of rapid cure systems for waterproofing in the construction industry.
Describes the different types, uses and benefits of fluid applied roofing systems, including their ease of application, their potential for improving a facility’s sustainability, and their flexibility for use as a flashing system.
Describe the assembly components and how they can be evaluated for wind resistance, identify the ways wind and system selection and installation can affect the ability of the assembly to protect against water infiltration, compare technology and assembly components; explain how these systems contribute to fire resistance and how they can be evaluated, identify the best approach to achieve the desired energy efficiency and resiliency goals of the project.
New York State has recently launched the RetrofitNY initiative as a means for building owners and the A&E community to turn poor energy performing structures into great environmental stewards, learn how this legislation and financial incentives are driving this innovative approach to the restoration market, and the evolutionary impact it will have to the traditional design process.
Attendees examine the major advancements in Exterior Insulation and Finish Systems (EIFS) and lightweight brick veneer cladding which specifically addresses the many challenges associated with today’s building envelope design, construction and performance.
Presenters
Schedule
7:30 to 8:30 a.m. — Continental breakfast and registration
8:30 to 8:45 a.m. — Remarks and introductions
8:45 to 9:45 a.m. — PMMA/PUMA Technology: Rapid-Cure Systems for Waterproofing (Tremco CPG - Commercial Sealants & Waterproofing)
Speaker: Dante Marimpietri
Discussion about the use of PMMA/PUMA technologies in the construction industry. Typical installation procedures recommended will be reviewed for applications in vehicular/pedestrian coating and below-grade waterproofing.
9:45 to 10:45 a.m. — Fluid Applied Roofing (Tremco CPG - Roofing)
Speakers: Brad Farris & Kyle Banasik
Learn about the different types, uses and benefits of fluid applied roofing systems, including their ease of application, their potential for improving a facility’s sustainability, and their flexibility for use as a flashing system.
10:45 to 11 a.m. — Break
11 a.m to Noon — The Building Enclosure: A Jacket of Protection for Your Building (Tremco CPG – Commercial Sealants & Waterproofing)
Speaker: Marcy Tyler, Director of Building Science
She will discuss:
Wind: Describe the assembly components and how they can be evaluated for wind resistance.
Water: Identify the ways wind and system selection and installation can affect the ability of the assembly to protect against water infiltration.
Fire: Compare technology and assembly components; explain how these systems contribute to fire resistance and how they can be evaluated.
Energy Efficiency & Resiliency: Based on regional need, identify the best approach to achieve the desired energy efficiency and resiliency goals of the project.
Noon to 1 p.m. — Lunch
1 to 2 p.m. — Deep Energy Retrofits (Tremco CPG – Commercial Sealants & Waterproofing)
Speaker: Steve Mort
Description: New York State has recently launched the RetrofitNY initiative as a means for building owners and the A&E community to turn poor energy performing structures into great environmental stewards. These types of projects will have a transformational impact on the traditional design process by prioritizing a holistic approach and integrating it heavily with the process optimization commonly found in the plant manufacturing environment. These projects have the added layer of complexity in how the upfront capital funds will be tied to a long-term operational performance improvement model.
Learn how this legislation and financial incentives are driving this innovative approach to the restoration market, and the evolutionary impact it will have to the traditional design process.
3 to 3:15 p.m. — Break
3:15 to 4:15 p.m. — The Evolution of Brick: New Lightweight Insulated Masonry Veneer (Tremco CPG – Dryvit/NewBrick)
Speaker: Bob Dazel, AIA, CSI LEED GA
This program introduces a new Lightweight Insulated Brick Veneer cladding option which is applicable to all construction types and market segments. This lightweight insulated brick veneer incorporates the size, shape and scale of traditional clay or thin brick while most importantly retaining the classic and often desired aesthetic appearance of brick.
