Online Training: Specifying Your Building Envelope to Meet the New Massachusetts Energy Code, January 9, 3 - 5 pm ET
Event Description
The MA energy code is complex and has presented challenges for many project teams. This session will cover some common project types and focus on what you need to do early in the project to successfully meet new building envelope requirements in your specifications. Speakers will provide examples and share envelope value ranges that successfully meet the new code requirements.
Session Learning Objectives:
1. Understand how the Massachusetts Energy Code impacts your envelope design and describe steps needed to comply.
2. Develop PHIUS and TEDI design approaches and specification strategies for code compliance and better building outcomes.
3. Compare and contrast air leakage requirements and the following code pathways: Air leakage compliance, reduced air leakage, TEDI, and PHIUS.
4. Incorporate precise specification language that will allow your project to meet the air leakage testing and thermal performance requirements.
