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.

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.

DESCRIPTION:AIA Triangle Virtual Lunch Program \nSponsored by  \n \nAcoustics in the Office Environment – Sound Off! \nThursday\, July 2 | 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm | 1 HSW credit \nAIA Member/AIA Triangle Annual Partner: $0 | Non-member: $20 \nREGISTRATION REQUIRED \n(deadline to register July 2 at 10:00 am) \nLink to online program will be emailed to registrants \nPROGRAM \nWorkspace office design has gone through a revolution with the advent of flexible-modular open office plans that promote collaboration and communication. This trend towards “office-hoteling” often includes open ceilings and hard surfaces as the accepted norm. An unintended byproduct of these spaces is reverberation and unwanted noise causing disruption & distractions which may lead to lower productivity and dissatisfaction in the workspace environment\, ultimately costing employers the value of the employee. This presentation will teach the designer fundamental vocabulary and available solutions to address such concerns in the modern workspace. \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES \n\nLearning to speak sound: As with any emerging discipline\, basic terminology is crucial to understanding the quantifying information and fortunately there are many similarities to the language of light. Attendees will learn the terms and measurements relative to this space in order to understand how to work with this design\nOffice problems can affect the “soundness” of your bottom line: Attendees will examine how disruptions in the office take a toll on productivity & learn strategies for engendering positive experiences in the work place.\nSensibly solving for sound: We will explore some of the current solutions to reduce sound distractions in the modern office environment. Attendees will familiarize themselves with the strength & weaknesses of various tools available and that address this issue.\nAcoustical design – Making sure your design is sound enough to resonate with your client: We will review how layouts can incorporate both lighting & acoustical metrics to ensure a more productive office environment and provide a salutary solution to ambient noise in the workspace. Attendees will learn how to interpret designs to meet the needs of their client.\n\nPRESENTED BY \nMichael Lunn SE Regional Specification Sales Manager \nMichael has been with Cooper for 25 years within the lighting control group. Holding roles of increasing responsibility from phone and field technical support\, system startups\, to sales and product management and Director of Product Marketing\, he has now joined our Specification Sales team to bring his controls knowledge to the Specification lighting side..

SUMMARY:Live Webinar - The Restorative Impact of Perceived Open Space
DESCRIPTION:AIA Triangle Virtual Lunch Program \nSponsored by \n \nThe Restorative Impact of Perceived Open Space \nThursday\, August 20 | 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm \n1 HSW Credit \nAIA Members/AIAT Annual Partners (Sponsors): $0 | Non-members: $25 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDeadline to register is 10:00 am on Thursday\, August 20\nZoom meeting link will be sent to registrants on the morning of the program\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPROGRAM \nIn this course we explore the impact of enclosed interiors and deep-plan buildings on human performance. We analyze the role circadian light and perceived open space play in shaping cognitive function\, as well as how our psycho-physiology changes in interior environments. \nWe discuss a new approach that proposes the restorative value of perceived open space in its two essential orientations: perceived zenith and perceived horizon line. In contrast to how we perceive these spatial reference frames outdoors\, in enclosed interiors where such reference frames are often not visible\, we can stage architectural cues to alter our perception of interior space. Restoring these spatial reference frames through a valid multisensory illusion restores a range of wellness benefits normally associated with interiors applying biophilic design principles. \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES \n\nDiscuss how and why isolating the qualities of light—intensity and color temperature—from their natural medium\, the sky\, has a profound effect on perception: Light loses its spatial attributes as an organic connection to nature.\nDefine the role Circadian Photoreceptors play in regulating circadian function and why the environmental context in which our physiology detects circadian light—in open\, natural space—may play a fundamental role in generating a restorative effect.\nDescribe how our sensorimotor system and our memory share the same wetware (neural pathways) to perceive and map out our environment\, making our memory a neural repository of spatial reference frames.\nSummarize the malleable nature of human perception and how multisensory illusions can be designed in architectural settings\, transforming how our physiology experiences the built environment.\nExplain the implications of deep plan buildings on human health and productivity and how biophilic design technologies minimize their deleterious impact.\n\nPRESENTED BY: \nGeof Northridge\, Marketing\, Product Presentations\, and Continuing Education Instructor \nMr. Northridge has extensive experience in both commercial real estate and the commercial construction industry.  For the past seven years he has been developing and presenting continuing education courses on topics including the effects of biophilic design elements on human physiology\, how biophilic illusions can be created to provide many of the same physiological benefits as actual biophilic design elements\, and how knowledge of the mechanics of human perception can be paired with carefully crafted illusions of nature to alter how humans experience interior spaces.  He has presented Sky Factory’s various AIA-approved continuing education courses more than 400 times to architectural and design firms as well as to AIA chapter meetings and other events.
