Speaker: Luana Buratynski & Joe Baz
About this Course:
Reaching towards Net Zero energy ready building are becoming a popular topic in todays climate changing world. Energy efficiency has expanded towards exterior wall assemblies where thermal bridging and thermally broken sub-framing systems are becoming the new norm. This course will identify and compare various cladding attachment methods on the market. Learn how to determine the appropriate clip for your project and how to compare effective thermal resistance required to achieve projects targeted R – Value.
Learning Objectives:
- In this presentation you will be able to understand how the use of thermal clips will impact thermal bridging on various exterior wall assembly applications.
- Identify types of clips currently on the market.
- Learn how to calculate the number of clips required on your project by identifying structural forces involved to determine clip spacing.
- Gain insight on how the NFPA 285 fire code applies to thermal clips, & Acquire a new ability to effectively detail thermal clips on architectural drawings.
Learning Units will be provided: Yes (LU)
