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 (Topic – Code)\, 1 AIA\, 1 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.

VIDEO VIEWING IS REQUIRED! \nCEU’s: 1 CSL (Topic – Energy)\, 1 AIA\, 1 BPI\, 1 Code Official \nDescription:\nThe International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) is updated every three years to address technological innovations and keep driving the effective use of energy in buildings. Massachusetts legislation requires the Commonwealth to adopt the latest version of the IECC within a year of its publication. While the adoption has not always occurred on schedule\, the Board of Building Regulations and Standards is actively reviewing the 2018 IECC with an eye to adopt in the first half of 2019. This webinar will provide a look ahead to the 2018 IECC by highlighting significant changes from the 2015 IECC\, including new provisions relating to buried ducts\, the building thermal envelope\, mechanical ventilation\, updated lighting requirements and changes to the energy rating index compliance alternative. \nLearning Objectives:\n1-Explain the Massachusetts commercial energy code adoption process\n2-Discuss how the ICC develops the IECC\n3-Identify the key changes between the commercial provisions of the 2015 IECC and the 2018 IECC\n4-Discuss the Massachusetts amendments to the 2018 IECC

SUMMARY:R4.4 - The Massachusetts Stretch Energy Code for HERS Raters
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: 3 AIA\, 3 BPI\, 3 Code Official \nCOURSE DESCRIPTION:\nMassachusetts Stretch Energy Code incorporates a blend of energy rating requirements and International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) requirements\, which often leads to confusion. This course covers the requirements of the Energy Rating Index (ERI) path\, as amended by Massachusetts\, and IECC “mandatory” requirements. This course\, specifically designed for HERS Raters\, reviews details of the ERI path\, including rating standard options\, renewable energy bonuses\, and verification and documentation requirements. It will also discuss every IECC requirement that is mandatory under the ERI path\, including envelope\, mechanical system\, service hot water\, and whole-house mechanical ventilation. The Stretch Code requires a completed ENERGY STAR Thermal Enclosure System Checklist\, and this course will provide a review of the items required on this checklist in comparison to the IECC Air Barrier and Insulation Installation Criteria\, which are also required. The course will also describe duct leakage testing requirements\, including IECC and RESNET 301 testing exemptions and related modeling issues. Finally\, the course will briefly touch on the alternative ERI path (ENERGY STAR Homes and Passive House)\, EV-Ready requirements\, and solar-ready requirements.

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 (Topic – Code)\, 1 AIA\, 1 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.

SUMMARY:(C4.2) - Third-Party Documentation & Does LEED = 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 (Topic – Energy)\, 1 AIA\, 1 BPI\, 1 Code Official \nThird party providers can fulfill a variety of code compliance tests and measures with specialized expertise that may not be available or feasible for the design and construction teams. This presentation will discuss minimum third-party documentation for commercial code compliance\, including commissioning reports\, air barrier test reports\, and building energy simulations for performance-path compliance. Noting that many construction and renovation projects may simultaneously pursue LEED or ENERGY STAR® certification\, we will also compare these certifications’ energy performance standards with those required by the current Massachusetts energy code (780 CMR 9th edition) to explore the question of whether environmental building certifications are equivalent to code-compliant buildings. We will also provide guidance to assure that special inspections\, tests\, and certifications are documented for ease of compliance review and verification\, and how construction professionals can assure that everyone is on the same page\, and path\, to compliance.
