SUMMARY:The 2018 IECC and Multifamily Buildings
DESCRIPTION:Continuing education: Three (3) hours. PA UCC\, ICC\, AIA LU|HSW\, NARI\, BPI \nCourse Description:\nThis 180-minute course focuses on the 2018 IECC requirements specifically tailored for multifamily buildings. This program is designed to provide participants with a deep understanding of the energy code provisions applicable to multifamily residential structures.\nThroughout the course\, we will explore the energy code requirements relevant to air sealing in multifamily buildings. Participants will gain insights into the specific guidelines and best practices for achieving effective air sealing in both residential and commercial components of multifamily structures. Additionally\, the course will include an introduction to the concept of thermal bridging and its implications for energy efficiency in multifamily buildings. \nLearning Objectives\n• Identify the differences between the residential and commercial provisions of the 2018 IECC in relation to multifamily buildings.\n• Identify and eliminate the biggest sources of air leakage in multifamily buildings.\n• Describe various\, important air sealing design and construction details.\n• Better understand the Energy Code’s requirements for air barrier construction and testing

SUMMARY:The 2018 IECC for Pennsylvania – Commercial
DESCRIPTION:The 2018 IECC went into effect on February 14\, 2022 bringing with it an annual savings of up to 14 percent. This training will include a high-level review of building science concepts including basic thermodynamics (how heat moves)\, including stack effect\, and conditions that result in optimum occupant comfort and productivity. The program will focus on high-impact energy code provisions and items with relatively high noncompliance as found by a recent PNNL commercial energy efficiency field study. Specific topics will include envelope insulation and air sealing\, mechanical system control configurations\, economizers\, kitchen ventilation\, energy recovery ventilation\, demand control ventilation\, and lighting controls. These topics will be framed in terms of entering and reviewing COMcheck inputs and outputs for accuracy regarding the submitted construction documents. Instructors will also present the use of example checklists throughout the program. \nLearning objectives: \n\nIdentify significant changes between the 2015 and 2018 IECC\nDescribe the science behind building energy efficiency and occupant comfort and productivity\nIdentify the energy code provisions with high impact but low compliance rates\nDescribe mechanical system and lighting control configuration requirements\n\nContinuing Education: Three (3) hours.

SUMMARY:Duct and Envelope Testing in the 2018 IECC (Basic)
DESCRIPTION:Continuing Education: Three (3) hours. PA UCC\, ICC\, AIA LU|HSW\, NARI\, BPI \nCourse Description:\nThis course is intended for students interested in learning about the basic concepts behind duct and envelope air leakage testing and an introduction to blower door and duct leakage testing operation. The program will cover basic building science principles as they relate to drivers of envelope air leakage and duct leakage\, review code requirements related to testing\, review the basics of equipment setup and operation\, and describe how to calculate and interpret test results.

SUMMARY:The Energy Code and Remote Virtual Inspections
DESCRIPTION:Description: \nThis program will help municipalities better understand how virtual inspections can save time and energy and provide a framework for determining when virtual inspections are appropriate and useful and when they are not. The training will also demonstrate a process for using widely available video conferencing platforms such as Zoom and Teams to guide a builder’s representative through a jobsite to perform an inspection from their office or home. Using additional photo-documentation will also be discussed. Finally\, PSD will provide a checklist or decision tree for municipalities to use for weighing time and energy savings potential for determining the types of inspections that lend themselves best to being conducted virtually. \nLearning Objectives: \nAfter attending this course\, students will be able to… 1- Describe the pros and cons of Remote Virtual Inspections 2- Understand a protocol for performing remote energy inspections 3- Discuss the use of photo-documentation in the inspection process 4- Improved their inspections of residential energy code requirements. \nContinuing education: Three (3) hours.

SUMMARY:The 2018 IECC for Pennsylvania - Commercial
DESCRIPTION:Description:\nThe 2018 IECC went into effect on February 14\, 2022 (happy Valentine’s Day!) bringing with it an annual savings of up to 14 percent. This training will include a high-level review of building science concepts including basic thermodynamics (how heat moves)\, including stack effect\, and conditions that result in optimum occupant comfort and productivity. The program will focus on high-impact energy code provisions and items with relatively high noncompliance as found by a recent PNNL commercial energy efficiency field study. Specific topics will include envelope insulation and air sealing\, mechanical system control configurations\, economizers\, kitchen ventilation\, energy recovery ventilation\, demand control ventilation\, and lighting controls. These topics will be framed in terms of entering and reviewing COMcheck inputs and outputs for accuracy regarding the submitted construction documents. Instructors will also present the use of example checklists throughout the program. \nLearning objectives:\n1- Identify significant changes between the 2015 and 2018 IECC\n2- Describe the science behind building energy efficiency and occupant comfort and productivity\n3- Identify the energy code provisions with high impact but low compliance rates\n4- Describe mechanical system and lighting control configuration requirements \nContinuing education: Three (3) hours.
