This starts by both looking backwards in time\, hydrologically and ecologically\, to see how the natural systems functioned\, as well as looking forward to understanding the challenges facing a site in terms of water resilience such as drought\, urban heat island\, the potential flash floods from intense rainfall events\, and fire risk. \nNew challenges have materialized over the past 20 years that have required more sophisticated approaches and the ability to quantify benefits for clients\, design partners\, and regulators. With a heavy focus on resilience\, Sherwood has refined the approach to water management to think about the relationship of water in built and natural systems. Made in partnership with the AIA CA Climate Action Resilient Design Committee\, this session will provide insights into this design approach through case studies at the building\, site\, and campus scale\, including Microsoft’s new Silicon Valley Campus\, a COTE Top 10 Award Winning project\, and UC Berkeley’s Resilient Water Plan. \n(Watching video recordings of past webinars does not give the opportunity to receive any AIA LUs / CE credit.)\nhttps://youtu.be/_dBp-I9UFkw\n Additional Resources\n Additional Resources \nPDF Presentation | Water: Resilient Sustainable Outcomes Pt.

The objective of the study was to demonstrate that different structural systems\, all permitted within the International Building Code\, may nonetheless deliver different performance in earthquakes. While a code compliant building regardless of structural system is expected to provide life safety\, the amount of physical damage\, repair costs and building functional recovery time can depend significantly on the strength and stiffness of the selected structural system. \nThe in the study\, estimates were made on the repair costs and recovery times associated with damage caused by a range of earthquake intensities in various locations. These estimates were based upon methodology developed over more than fifteen years by FEMA in the P58 – Seismic Performance Assessment of Buildings standard. Furthermore\, it estimates repair costs and recovery time based on the fragility of individual structural and nonstructural components. Ultimately\, net benefits and net construction cost deltas were compared across the four configurations and potential return on investment was estimated considering earthquakes that might occur over a 50-year building life. The study concludes with a USRC rating for safety\, damage and recovery for each system and territory. \nhttps://youtu.be/EXN-KdtlftE URL:https://events.aiacalifornia.org/event/resilient-design-performance-assessment-of-structural-materials/ CATEGORIES:Climate Action ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://events.aiacalifornia.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/2023-Climate-Action-Webinar-RESILIENT-DESIGN-PERFORMANCE-ASSESSMENT-OF-STRUCTURAL-MATERIALS-1200x800-1.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20220831T000000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20220831T000000 DTSTAMP:20260427T133853 CREATED:20220809T042054Z LAST-MODIFIED:20231122T031557Z UID:10000039-1661904000-1661904000@events.aiacalifornia.org SUMMARY:Adaptive Reuse\, Efficient by Default: Projects with Embedded Energy Efficiency DESCRIPTION:Did you miss this valuable Webinar?

The energy efficient integrated systems approach often requires significant expertise to ensure that they are designed\, integrated\, commissioned\, and operated effectively. Furthermore\, the customary practice of building energy retrofits is to treat such projects as standalone engineering projects\, which is often too disruptive to the building occupants and activities because they are not aligned with the real estate life cycle. \nA scalable approach to deploying energy efficient integrated systems in offices and schools by opportunistically incorporating them within adaptive reuse projects ranging from tenant fit outs to whole building renovations is more productive. We describe a suite of Integrated Systems Packages (ISPs) that are ”˜pre-engineered”™ to minimize expertise and effort required for implementation. Each ISP is tailored to a particular project scope\, such as tenant fit out\, equipment replacement\, whole building renovation\, etc. Each ISP is also pre-validated with respect to functionality and energy performance to reduce real and perceived risk. We review ISP toolkits which include template specifications and other resources. \nLearn More:What You Can Do Now: Incorporate Energy Efficiency into Tenant Improvement and Renovation Projects with Integrated Systems Packages \nEarn 1 LU|HSW and 1hr of ZNCD MCE for attending live. \nhttps://youtu.be/DI4P_fq2EM8\n Additional Resources\n Additional Resources \nPDF Presentation | Adaptive Reuse\, Efficient by Default: Projects with Embedded Energy Efficiency URL:https://events.aiacalifornia.org/event/adaptive-reuse-efficient-by-default-projects-with-embedded-energy-efficiency/ CATEGORIES:Climate Action ATTACH;FMTTYPE=: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20220914T000000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20220914T000000 DTSTAMP:20260427T133853 CREATED:20220909T013130Z LAST-MODIFIED:20231026T021746Z UID:10000040-1663113600-1663113600@events.aiacalifornia.org SUMMARY:Carbon Part 1. | Carbon Accounting: Terminology and Metrics DESCRIPTION:When: Wednesday September 14th\, 2022 12pm ”“ 1pm \nUnits: 1 LU/HSW (pending approval) \nModerator:Avideh Haghighi AIA\, LFA\, LEED GA — Associate Principal | ZGF ARCHITECTS LLP \nSpeaker:Brad Benke\, AIA | Researcher\, Carbon Leadership ForumJack Rusk\, LEED AP | Climate Strategist\, EHDD \nDescription:This program is the first in a 3 part series on Carbon made in partnership with the Carbon Leadership Forum. \nKicking off the series with basic terminology and metrics\, this program will guide audience members through core concepts of carbon analysis and demystify terms such as embodied carbon\, whole-life carbon\, and zero carbon.

In June\, 2022\, CA Governor Gavin Newsom appropriated $250 million in grant funding in budget bill SB-189 to owners of 2-20 unit apartment buildings with soft stories\, to seismically retrofit them and make them safer for their residents. The US Resiliency Council was the sponsor of the bill and led the effort to establish a coalition of supporters unprecedented in its diversity. This course will describe the legislation\, how the USRC was able to successfully create the coalition of supporters and provide information about how the architectural community can benefit from the grant program. \n\nAdditional Resources\nAdditional Resources \nFinal Presentation_USRC \nQ&A Report_USRC URL:https://events.aiacalifornia.org/event/climate-action-webinar-u-s-resiliency-council-seismic-grant-legislation/ CATEGORIES:Climate Action ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://events.aiacalifornia.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/2023-Climate-Action-Webinar-U.S.-Resiliency-Council-Seismic-Grant-Legislation-1200x800-1.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20230216T120000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20230216T130000 DTSTAMP:20260427T133853 CREATED:20230128T003527Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230830T004118Z UID:10000059-1676548800-1676552400@events.aiacalifornia.org SUMMARY:Water Solutions for the Modern World - Climate Action Webinar DESCRIPTION:Units: 1.5 LU/HSW \nSpeaker: Eric Hough | Chief Commercial Officer\, Epic Cleantec \nWater conservation best-practices for modern buildings are evolving.

This program will present the impact wildfire has on vulnerable populations in high risk areas\, and how resilient design and resiliency strategies can defend the health\, safety and welfare of those populations. \nhttps://youtu.be/gX7dWg_vO9g\n Additional Resources\n Additional Resources \n Full Presentation_Wildfires\, Microgrids\, Holistic Communities URL:https://events.aiacalifornia.org/event/credit-cram-towards-a-new-climate-urbanism-wildfires-microgrids-and-holistic-communities/ LOCATION:Virtual CATEGORIES:Climate Action ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://events.aiacalifornia.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/2023-AIACA-Credit-Cram-Toward-a-new-climate-1200x800-1.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Sarah Vasquez":MAILTO:svasquez@aiacalifornia.org END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
