Mainstreaming Modular High-Performance Homes: Research, Collaboration, & Best Practices of Building

The three-part, 90-minute webinar will be moderated by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) Industrialized Construction Innovation (ICI) team and aims to focus on knowledge dissemination from ongoing research, collaboration opportunities, and best practices thriving at the intersection of advance building science and advanced building construction to deliver affordable high-performance homes. 

Instructor: Trish Cozart, Shanti Pless, Ankur Podder, Stacey Rothgeb, David Schultz

Better Energy Efficiency from the Ground Up

Although below-grade waterproofing and insulation are out of sight, they are integral to a building’s thermal performance. While there are countless steps you can take to make homes more energy efficient, starting from the ground up is the best approach.

Instructor: Mark LaLiberte

Energy Code - Module 5: Insulation Installation Requirements

This class will discuss mandatory and prescriptive insulation requirements in the IECC, as well as the building science rationale for these requirements.

Instructor: Joe Nebbia

Air Sealing - The Foundation of High Performance Homes

Consumers are more aware of their options and they demand better homes. Air sealing lies at the heart of any successful building, addressing 3 of the 4 major risk controls (vapor, air flow, and thermal controls).
