Course Description: CEU Events: Exterior Grade Design: An Architect's Guide to Using Polymers Outdoors
The course provides an overview of engineered resins utilized for exterior building projects and applications. Important details on the evolution, the performance characteristics and the design options that resins bring to an exterior project are discussed and demonstrated. The program contains a selection of example applications where resins have been employed to complete high-performing and high-design exterior projects that are difficult to achieve with traditional building materials.
Learning Objective 1 Showcase a number of resin options that can be employed to address the performance and aesthetic aspects of a myriad of exterior applications.
Learning Objective 2 Architects and designers will have a comprehensive understanding of the traditional material (glass, wood, metal, etc.) limitations that resins can help overcome when designing the exterior aspects of any project.
Learning Objective 3 Teach how resins provide unique material options that can be utilized for exterior projects.
Learning Objective 4 Review thoroughly different thermoplastic resin performance criteria including UV resistance, impact resistance, abrasion resistance, cleaning, and maintenance. Actual test-performance demonstrations are included in the program.
