Specification Strategies to Eliminate Concrete Moisture

Specification Strategies to Eliminate Concrete Moisture

Sponsored By ISE Logik Industries
1 AIA HSW/LU CE Hour(s)

In many projects, installation of floor finishes is one of the last items to occur prior to substantial completion. However, 09 flooring specification sections require moisture testing before flooring can be installed on concrete slabs. When those moisture tests fail, the project faces time delays, unexpected costs, or both.

Learning Objectives:
  1. Discuss owner’s design intent and how it drives project requirements, thereby directly impacting specification language.
  2. Review specific industry documents and reference standards that drives the requirement to moisture test all concrete slabs.
  3. Investigate the genesis of current 09 flooring specification language.
  4. Specify sustainable design processes that eliminate: (1) project delivery delays due to concrete slab moisture, (2) subsequent bond or moisture failures, and (3) design team liability for each.

Improving IAQ Through the Use of Energy Efficient, 100% Outside Air Heating and Cooling Technologies IN High Bay Buildings

Improving IAQ Through the Use of Energy Efficient, 100% Outside Air Heating and Cooling Te...

Sponsored By Cambridge Air Solutions
Presented By Randy Niederer
1 AIA HSW/LU CE Hour(s)
1 GBCI General Hour

As “Energy Efficiency” continues to drive the conversation about how heating, ventilate and air condition buildings of all types we have to focus more on those HVAC technologies that we utilize to heat and cool the places where we work. This presentation explores two types of technologies….

Learning Objectives:
  1. Describe technologies available that are some of the most energy efficient ways to heat and temper cool facilities throughout the U.S. that use 100% outside air to improve IAQ
  2. Discuss how improved IAQ can have positive effects on worker productivity
  3. Identify building types that can use 100% outside air technologies to improve IAQ
  4. Illustrate how the use of energy efficient HVAC technologies can reduce the carbon footprint of industrial buildings.
