SUMMARY:Live Webinar - Acoustics\, Technology and Lighting - The Impact of COVID-19
DESCRIPTION:AIA Triangle Virtual Lunch  \nSponsored by \n \nAcoustics\, Technology and Lighting – The Impact of COVID-19 \nTuesday\, June 2 | 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm | (1 HSW credit) \nONLINE MEETING – REGISTRATION REQUIRED \nDeadline to register is June 2 at 10:00 am \nLink to online meeting will be emailed to registrants on the morning of the program \nAIA Members/AIA Triangle Annual Partners: $0 | Non-members: $20 \nPROGRAM \nThis session will review the impact COVID-19 will have on building design and systems as it relates to acoustics\, technology\, and lighting design. Acoustically\, the workplace will require redesigning. The current high-density hoteling of workers will not be accepted in the future due to social distancing. This will impact office acoustics as well as noise levels within restaurants. \nOver the last 3 months\, the A/E industry has found that most of us can work from a laptop and if we have a high-speed connection\, can work from home. We have been remotely doing that at client meetings and job sites for years. It is the actual production work that is more efficient on larger and multiple monitors that will create the challenge. \nHuddle rooms will be expanded in our designs – how do we make sure we can fit out these spaces for easy collaboration? \nThere will be increased requirements for hands-free gesturing at public touch screens and digital signage. \nFinally lighting – Can UV lighting help sanitize the environments we travel though. \nThis interactive session will address these questions and any others the participants bring up. \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES \n\nParticipants will explain how designing a building for social distancing can impact speech privacy and speech intelligibility\nParticipants will describe why the finish materials that affect the buildup of sound within a space can reduce speech intelligibility\nParticipants will demonstrate best communications practices while participating in video calls and why the physical design and finishes of the room are so critical\nParticipants will identify the critical design elements of wall and floor/ceiling systems and technology components required for collaboration/huddle/zoom rooms\nParticipants will describe the types of UV light and their impact on pathogens and the human body \n\nPRESENTED BY \n \nSteven J. Thorburn\, PE\, LEED AP\, CTS-D\, CTS-I \nAs a founding principal of Thorburn Associates\, Steve is a licensed engineer with 30+ years’ experience in the architectural application of acoustic\, audiovisual/technology and lighting systems.

SUMMARY:Live Webinar - Post Pandemic Design Standards: What is the Future of Commercial Design
DESCRIPTION:AIA Triangle Virtual Lunch \nSponsored by \n \nPost Pandemic Design Standards: What is the Future of Commercial Design? \nThursday\, June 11 | 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm | 1 HSW Credit \nAIA Members & AIAT Annual Sponsors: $0 | Non-members: $20 \nOnline Meeting via Microsoft Teams \nREGISTRATION REQUIRED \n(Deadline to register June 11 at 10:00 am) \nLink to online meeting will be emailed to registrants \nPROGRAM \nThis unprecedented time presents many challenges and it seems a little hard to imagine what the post-pandemic office will look like. No doubt the coronavirus has raised everyone’s level of awareness about the potential for their surroundings to serve as breeding grounds for communicable viruses or disease. The good news is that smart design can decrease the rate of sickness\, alleviate symptoms of illness\, and improve mental functions\, outlook\, and mood. Design and renovations of the modern office where large numbers of people work in close proximity for long periods of time is sure to undergo long-lasting transformation. The industry conditions resulting from COVID-19 have caused us to reevaluate our use of space\, health standards\, and emerging technologies in order to place occupant health at the front and center of our projects. Understanding how new social distancing guidelines can be used in conjunction with technology and design will be more crucial for public health than ever. This presentation will provide an overview of safety measures and systems which can be integrated into your existing buildings and designs to create a safer work environment for building occupants. We will explore some short-term and long-term strategies and solutions including focus on indoor air quality\, advanced air-filtration systems\, addition of biophilic design elements as well as new space-planning protocols. The take away for the attendees is that no one really knows to what extent the current pandemic will revolutionize how we live\, but it seems likely that there will be a long-lasting impact on the way we work and how our workplaces function – the modern office will look very different. \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES \n\nParticipants will identify the impacts of potential pandemics on commercial design using existing data from the current pandemic\, and determine how these impacts affect their current designs or renovations.\nParticipants will be able to use new social distancing guidelines & safety measures on their projects\, and integrate them with minimal changes to building design.\nParticipants will discuss what factors should be considered when selecting materials and finishes for their project\, and specify the options that will reduce building occupants’ exposure to pathogens.\nParticipants will examine various building systems used to increase the health and safety of building occupants\, and summarize how these systems can be integrated into their existing projects\n\nPRESENTED BY \nKeith Pehl\, P.E. is the President and Founder of Optima Engineering\, PA.

SUMMARY:Live Webinar - Developing a Collaborative Environment between Design and Construction with BIM
DESCRIPTION:AIA Triangle Virtual Lunch \nSponsored by \n \nDeveloping a Collaborative Environment between Design and Construction with BIM \nTuesday\, June 30 | 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm | 1 AIA LU Credit \nAIA Members/AIAT Annual Sponsors: $0 | Non-members: $20 \nREGISTRATION REQUIRED  \nDeadline to register June 30 at 10:00 am \nZoom meeting invitation will be emailed to registrants \nPROGRAM: \nBuilding digital models to assist in design\, documentation\, and visualization is a well-established workflow for many architects. Likewise\, contractors have developed processes around BIM (Building Information Modeling) that provide high-quality coordination in the field. By developing a more collaborative project environment between design and construction teams working in BIM\, design intent can be verified and systems can be reviewed in context prior to field installation. These early interactions can help to ensure that the completed project meets the needs of the building occupants and provides insights into ways to improve the end user’s well-being. The session will examine model coordination techniques\, tools available with current and future technology\, and communication platforms that utilize model data. With backgrounds in architecture prior to taking on roles with a general contractor\, the presenters have a unique insight into the ways in which we can utilize these collaborative processes to improve industry workflows. \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES: \n\nParticipants will identify the role of BIM coordination in ensuring design intent is met for the building to fulfill the needs of the end user.\nParticipants will analyze opportunities to create a more collaborative project environment that improves communication between design and construction teams on items such as design verification and code compliance that impact the well-being of building occupants.\nParticipants will evaluate BIM goals that can be set for various phases of a project\, including logistics and safety planning\, constructability reviews\, engineering analysis\, coordination\, and digital fabrication.\nParticipants will discover uses of digital models in the field for verification\, inspection\, and communication with all project stakeholders\, including design team\, owner\, general contractor\, and subcontractors\, that can help projects be constructed with efficiency to improve the built environment.
