Poorly detailed conditions can lead to interior damage, occupant discomfort, and costly repairs. This presentation will explore strategies for visualizing and detailing these complex conditions in three dimensions, while emphasizing collaboration between designers and contractors to develop practical solutions that maintain enclosure continuity.\n\nPerformance Mock-Ups: Incorporating Off-Site Lessons Learned into Project Construction\nPresenter: Gaby S. Simundson, Project Consultant II (Simpson Gumpertz & Heger Inc. – SGH)\nPerformance Mock-Ups (PMUs) provide project teams with an opportunity to evaluate complex design conditions before full-scale construction. This presentation will cover key considerations throughout the PMU lifecycle, from design and construction through testing and field validation. It will also highlight lessons learned from complex PMUs, including strategies for improving coordination, confirming enclosure performance, and avoiding common pitfalls.\n\nShield & Structure: Fortifying Exterior Wall Cladding Support Design\nPresenter: Travis Cacciatori, CDT, LEED AP, Director of Sales, Engineering & Marketing (Knight Wall Systems)\nThis course explores advancements in rainscreen exterior wall systems under the 2024 International Building Code (IBC). Topics include cladding support systems, thermal derating, rail orientation, and single- versus double-layer configurations. Attendees will examine how these design choices affect structural performance, durability, efficiency, and code compliance.\n\nBuilding Enclosure Repair/Restoration Construction: Leveraging Collaborative Partnerships Between Construction and Design Professionals\nPresenters: Jeff Diguette, P.E., Vice President, Principal Engineer (Tekton Building Solutions Group) & Chris Dowling, P.E. Enclosure Executive (Tekton Building Solutions Group)\nThis course provides a construction professional’s perspective on building enclosure repair and restoration projects, including waterproofing, weather barriers, masonry, sealants, and concrete work.
