SUMMARY:C7.1 - Building Systems Commissioning: Saving Money and Meeting Code
DESCRIPTION:Make sure to use the GoToWebinar link to obtain video access\, this is required and verified for CEU credit. VIDEO VIEWING IS REQUIRED! \nCEU’s: 1 CSL (Code Review)\, 1 AIA\, 1 BPI\, 1 Code Official \nCommercial Webinar – Building Systems Commissioning: Saving Money and Meeting Code \nCOURSE DESCRIPTION:\nBuilding commissioning reduces energy bills\, improves comfort\, reduces CO2 and other emissions\, and… it is the law. According to data from US Energy Information Administration (EIA)\, in 2018 commercial buildings accounted for over 18% of the energy consumed in the US\, with over half that energy dedicated to heating\, cooling\, and lighting. While most building owners and builders understand the importance of high-efficacy lighting and efficient HVAC systems\, the importance of building system commissioning is less widely appreciated. Studies have shown that the operating efficiency of commercial buildings improves by as much as 13% with commissioning.\nThis course will provide an overview of mechanical systems and lighting commissioning including the benefits to building owners and occupants\, the general commissioning process\, and a review of energy code requirements and associated documentation. The course will also identify the roles that building owners\, builders\, code officials\, and commissioning agents play in the commissioning process and highlight relevant industry standards and certifications. \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES:\nAttendees will be able to…\n1. Describe the code requirements for building systems commissioning.\n2. Understand the different phases of the commissioning process.\n3. Identify the roles of building owners\, commissioning providers\, builders\, and building code officials.\n4. Provide and review the required commissioning documentation.

SUMMARY:C5.1 - The Energy Code and Existing Buildings (Commercial) - Part 1
DESCRIPTION:C5.1 – The Energy Code and Existing Buildings (Commercial) – Part 1 \nT02-07-3163 \nCOURSE DESCRIPTION: This course will provide a review of IECC Chapter 5 [CE] provisions with an emphasis on situations where work performed on existing buildings requires them to meet the energy code like new construction. This includes additions\, new thermal envelope assemblies built as part of an alteration\, window replacements\, new heating\, cooling and duct systems\, new service hot water systems\, new lighting where 10 percent or more of the luminaires are replaced\, changes from unconditioned to conditioned space\, and commercial spaces converted to dwelling units. The course will provide numerous examples and ask attendees to identify the energy code requirements for each scenario. \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES: \n1- Determine when construction in existing buildings needs to meet the energy code like new construction \n2- Determine situations where exception apply \n3- Understand various prescriptive energy code requirements for existing building projects requiring compliance like new construction \n4- Describe documentation necessary to take the historic buildings exemption \n
