Instructor: Troy Jones Description: A building doesn't just appear. It starts with the design of the building, and ends with it being inspected. What are things that I should be inspecting in the mechanical system to ensure we have an energy efficient system? We are going to review these questions with examples from plans and […]

Instructor: Hope Medina Description: When the phrase of the “building thermal envelope” is mentioned the image people think of is insulation, but what other components are involved with the thermal envelope. The Building Thermal Envelope is a critical component of project design that serves to provide thermal resistance and create a level of safety and separation […]
Instructor: Hope Medina Description: This course is designed to provide a detailed understanding of the mechanical and service water heating provisions found in the energy code. Mechanical systems, including heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC), and plumbing, are critical components of a building's energy performance and overall efficiency. This training provides a comprehensive overview of the […]

Instructor: Steve Thomas Description: Addresses the relationship of the IEBC to existing buildings. Focuses on the fundamental requirements of IEBC that are placed on an existing structure that undergoes repair work, alteration, renovation activity or construction of an addition, and the effect of a change in the building’s occupancy classification. Briefly discusses the “compliance alternatives” […]
Instructor: Hope Medina Description: This class offers a comprehensive look at the updated power and lighting provisions in the 2024 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) for commercial buildings. Attendees will explore key changes in lighting controls, daylighting requirements, occupancy sensor zones, and electrical energy monitoring provisions. The class will also address how different compliance paths impact […]
Instructor: Hope Medina Description: A critical component of the building thermal envelope for commercial buildings are both insulation and fenestration. The question becomes what information do we need to provide to ensure that a plan review can be performed for these components? Let's take this opportunity to show aspects of the code that are tools to […]
Instructor: Steve Thomas Description: Focuses on those elements of buildings that are required to be fire-resistance-rated due to other provision of the code. Based on the International Building Code® (IBC®), provision applicable to all of the occupancies and construction types will be addressed. The seminar is applicable to all aspects of the regulatory/design/construction community, including […]
Instructor: Hope Medina Description: Let’s take a look at the relationship between the thermal envelope and mechanical systems. How does the REScheck software program work, and how does it assist with determining compliance with the thermal envelope for residential projects. Let’s take a look at the software and the reports they produce. Let’s also take a […]
Instructor: Bill Clayton Description: Description: Full day class on IBC and IFC requirements for elevators including when elevators are required, shaft construction and requirements, elevator lobbies and fire protection, and how to conduct plan review and inspection for elevators related to the IBC/IFC and A17.1 requirements
Instructor: Hope Medina Description: A building doesn't just appear. It starts with the design of the building, and ends with it being inspected. What should be provided on the plans and what should I be looking for when reviewing a project to get the desired results in the field by the contractors and inspectors for energy […]
