Course Description: AEC Daily: High-Performance Building Envelope Designs with Insulating Concrete Forms

ONGOING - FREE - 1.5 HOURS
Insulating concrete form (ICF) products use a cost-effective and robust structural material option (reinforced concrete) to turn a building envelope into a high-performing thermal, moisture, and air enclosure with disaster resistance and built-in compliance with energy code requirements. As a result of ICF performance, building owners can complete a whole structure with ICFs and reinforced concrete, including intermediate suspended floors, rooftops, and multistory designs. This courses examines the advancements in ICF technology and discusses the potential contribution of ICFs to supporting improved sustainability and resilience.

ONGOING - FREE - 1.5 HOURS
INFORMATION AND REGISTRATION
Learning Objectives:
Discuss the environmental impact of buildings and how today’s ICF products use concrete, a cost-effective and robust structural material, to create high-performance building envelopes.
Discuss how ICF formwork creates structural elements that comply with established criteria for concrete building design and the newest energy code requirements.
Summarize the advantages of ICF construction and explain how ICF/concrete walls, floors, and roofs are constructed on-site.
Citing research studies, analyze the sustainability, life cycle, and energy performance of the materials that make up an ICF and ICF construction.
Refer to case studies to illustrate the efficiency of ICF construction for disaster-resistant building designs.
