Course Description: AEC Daily: Successful, Sustainable Precast Enclosure Projects: Designs for Education, Healthcare, Offices, and More
High-performance, fully composite insulated wall panels deliver all the benefits of factory precasting with load-bearing and energy efficiency performance from the lightest, thinnest panels possible. This course describes the makeup and cost efficiencies of composite precast panels, their benefits when made with carbon fiber grid shear trusses, and considerations for selecting among the insulation options. The majority of the course focuses on case studies of successful precast enclosure projects in a wide variety of building types across a range of markets.
Discuss the differences between noncomposite and composite insulated precast panels and the structural, cost, and sustainability benefits of fully composite panels with carbon fiber grid shear trusses.
Describe the insulation options for precast wall panels and the importance of continuous insulation.
Explain how composite insulated precast panels help meet increasingly stringent thermal performance demands while controlling moisture and minimizing finish material use and costs.
Implement composite insulated precast panels in a wide array of project types to enhance their structural, energy efficiency, and moisture control performance while meeting architectural and aesthetic goals.
