Metal Building Manufacturers Association Announces the Energy Code Compliance Webinar for Metal Building Systems
MBMA will offer a comprehensive webinar that features up-to-date information about energy codes and standards, as well as energy-efficient design and construction schemes, for metal building systems professionals.
CLEVELAND, OH, September 18, 2011 /Architecture PR News/ -- www.mbma.com: The Metal Building Manufacturers Association (MBMA) has developed a comprehensive Energy Code Compliance webinar that will educate the metal building specifiers, contractors and builders on how to navigate and utilize today's energy codes and standards as they apply to metal building systems, and incorporate the MBMA Energy Design Guide for Metal Building Systems. This webinar will describe how to design and construct metal buildings to be energy efficient.
"Most municipalities in the United States have adopted an energy code and standard. It's wise to be informed and up-to-date," says Chuck Praeger, MBMA's assistant general manager.
Some of the topics that will be covered include—energy design responsibilities, how metal building systems fit into the energy codes, how to apply energy code requirements, and common ways to insulate a metal building system.
Instructors from the Metal Building Manufacturers Association are Jay D. Johnson, LEED AP, director of architectural services and Dan J. Walker, P.E., senior staff engineer.
The first Energy Code Compliance webinar will take place on October 6, 2011, while the second webinar is set for October 17, 2011. The one-hour sessions will start at 2:00 Eastern Time and there will also be an additional 15-minute Q&A period at the end of each presentation. Enrollment for these and other MBMA webinars is available on the sign-up page in the bookstore section of the MBMA webpage, www.mbma.com. Enrollment for the Energy Code Compliance webinar is $125 per person. Each enrollee will receive a copy of MBMA's Energy Design Guide for Metal Building Systems, which has a retail price of $86 and is the source material for the presentation.
First webinars scheduled for October 6 and October 17, 2011
