SUMMARY:R3.2 - Whole-House Mechanical Ventilation: Options for Code Compliance (PRIVATE EVENT - MVBA)
DESCRIPTION:Remote Learning – MVBA Katrina Lima – katrinaad20@gmail.com  \n1 CSL – LU/HSW  \nCOURSE DESCRIPTION:   \n  Mechanical ventilation is as important to indoor air quality as it is for energy conservation. The second part of the course will cover 2018 IECC\, IRC\, and Massachusetts amendments relating to whole-house mechanical ventilation system requirements. This will include when whole-house ventilation is required\, how to calculate the minimum design airflow rate\, and how to verify installed airflow rates. The presenter will also provide an overview of different ventilation systems – exhaust only\, supply-only and balanced ventilation (including ERVs/HRVs) – along with pros and cons of each type of system.  \n  \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES:  \nVentilation Types  \nWhy Ventilate  \nCalculating Ventilation amount

SUMMARY:C3.1 - Commercial Air Barriers-3 options for Compliance
DESCRIPTION:Make sure to use the GoToWebinar link to obtain video access\, this is required and verified for CEU credit. VIDEO VIEWING IS REQUIRED! \nCEU’s: 1 CSL\, 1AIA\, I BPI\, 1 Code Official \nCommercial Webinar – Commercial Air Barriers-3 options for Compliance \nCOURSE DESCRIPTION\nThis course will cover Massachusetts 9th Edition energy code requirements for commercial building air barriers\, including those in ASHRAE 90.1-2016 and the 2018 IECC. The course will clarify these requirements for better specification by designers and easier review by code enforcement officials. The course is organized around examples that show differences between systems-based\, assembly-based\, and testing-based compliance options. This introductory course will provide background for a subsequent and more advanced air barrier strategy module. \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES:\n1- Examine the basic requirements for commercial building air barriers in the Massachusetts 9th Edition and reference 2018 IECC and ASHRAE 90.1‐2016.​ \n2- Understand the benefits of the air barrier systems to the environment\, building owner\, and occupants​ \n3- Discuss performance test standards relating to air barrier systems\, including the NFPA 285 fire test.​\n​\n4- Determine what complies as a performance-based air barrier system and how to enforce that requirement​

SUMMARY:C7.1 Building Systems Commissioning: Saving Money and Meeting Code
DESCRIPTION:Make sure to use the GoToWebinar link to obtain video access\, this is required and verified for CEU credit. VIDEO VIEWING IS REQUIRED! \nCEU’s: 1 CSL\, 1AIA\, I BPI\, 1 Code Official \nCommercial Webinar – Building Systems Commissioning: Saving Money and Meeting Code \nCOURSE DESCRIPTION:\nBuilding commissioning reduces energy bills\, improves comfort\, reduces CO2 and other emissions\, and… it is the law. According to data from US Energy Information Administration (EIA)\, in 2018 commercial buildings accounted for over 18% of the energy consumed in the US\, with over half that energy dedicated to heating\, cooling\, and lighting. While most building owners and builders understand the importance of high-efficacy lighting and efficient HVAC systems\, the importance of building system commissioning is less widely appreciated. Studies have shown that the operating efficiency of commercial buildings improves by as much as 13% with commissioning.\nThis course will provide an overview of mechanical systems and lighting commissioning including the benefits to building owners and occupants\, the general commissioning process\, and a review of energy code requirements and associated documentation. The course will also identify the roles that building owners\, builders\, code officials\, and commissioning agents play in the commissioning process and highlight relevant industry standards and certifications. \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES:\nAttendees will be able to…\n1. Describe the code requirements for building systems commissioning.\n2. Understand the different phases of the commissioning process.\n3. Identify the roles of building owners\, commissioning providers\, builders\, and building code officials.\n4. Provide and review the required commissioning documentation.
