Course Outline and Speakers

The Influence of Energy Codes in the Evolution of Building Enclosure Design 3 LHs 9:00 am – 12:00 pm

Building energy design has progressed in recent years and it is important to assess where we currently are and where we are headed in the future. We will explore how the building envelope evaluations differ and what new challenges and opportunities will surface as energy codes rise. To avoid enclosure failures, understanding how building materials perform as a system is imperative, this presentation will also review building science fundamentals as they relate to thermal and moisture control and will outline a hybrid roof strategy and the benefits of combining insulation types as a cost-effective choice for roof applications. Finally, we will discuss the project design of StudioBell and the challenges curved walls presented while reviewing the wall assembly used to overcome these issues.

Learning Objectives:

1. Review the history, scope and local mandated energy requirements of the National Energy Code of Canada and their impact on building enclosure design strategies.

2. Understand key building science principles related to the building enclosure and examine stone wool solutions that meet and exceed code requirements.

3. Discuss the function and performance of hybrid stone wool roof solutions in local projects.

4. Recognize key elements in the execution of high-performance buildings based on learnings from local projects.

 

Speakers:

David Leonard P.L.Eng., P.Tech. (Eng.), A.Sc.T. (SK), Associate Building Envelope Specialist, Entuitive

The Tour: An in-depth look at Studio Bell, home of the National Music Centre 1 LH 1:00pm – 2:00 pm


This one hour private guided tour of Studio Bell, home of the National Music Centre (NMC), will explore the buildings impressive architecture and visually review the curvature of the walls to better understand the challenges this design created. While highlighting the exterior wall assembly and materials used, the tour will continue behind the glass while viewing the top ten attractions of the NMC’s collection with amplified live interpretations where the group will see the collections come to life.

Learning Objectives:

1. Discuss how architectural design engages the public imagination and amplifies a city’s architectural legacy

2. Review how the facility functions to enhance and add to the user experience

3. Understand how the acoustical design uses sound to introduce the content and programs of the exhibitions

4. Identify how the design of the building uses the subtle curves, modeled by light, gravity, and acoustics to bind audience, performer, student and teacher to the collections

NMC Speakers: Chris Hogan and Ryan Foster from ROCKWOOL with support from a NMC tour guide.
