Certificate in Building Science and Net Zero Design, Yestermorrow Design/Build School, 1/9 - 3/2 (16, 3-hour Sessions)
Event Description
Net Zero buildings are carbon neutral structures that integrate hyper-efficiency with renewable technologies. They are at the cutting edge of sustainable design, and a key strategy for policymakers addressing climate change.
Net Zero designs are made possible with an understanding of building science- the analysis of how physical phenomena, including heat, moisture, air movement, and gravity affect buildings. Building science provides a body of knowledge for designers to use these forces to maximize comfort and minimize energy use.Through lecture, case study, demonstration, hands-on testing, and design exercises, students will gain a firm grasp of the science behind building performance and begin to explore how to design in accordance with the laws of physics and the forces of nature. If you are a designer, builder, project manager, property owner, or policy professional, or are moving toward one of these careers, a firm understanding of building science and the path to net-zero buildings is fast becoming a critical credential for any successful practitioner.
Schedule:
The Winter 2023 Certificate in Building Science & Net Zero Design will run on Monday and Thursday evenings from 6:00-9:00PM Eastern Time from January 9th to March 2nd, 2023 for a total of sixteen (16) 3-hour sessions.
