SUMMARY:Building for the Future: Enhancing Resilience with Cool Surfaces in LEED v5
DESCRIPTION:Solar-reflective roofs\, walls\, and pavements reduce heat exposure from individual buildings to communities and globally. LEED v5 integrates surface reflectance across multiple credits and prerequisites\, recognizing its impact on energy\, health\, durability\, and urban heat-island mitigation. The session will address shortcomings in historical climate data and highlight the importance of forward-looking assessments for building design. Presenters will outline relevant LEED v5 credits\, how to use third-party radiative property ratings for documentation\, and certified project examples. Emphasizing systems thinking\, they show how cool surfaces connect envelope\, site\, energy\, and occupant health. \nAfter attending this session\, participants will be able to: \n\nDescribe how LEED v5 integrates cool surface requirements across multiple credits and prerequisites to address heat resilience at building and site scales.\nIdentify the radiative properties that define cool surface performance and explain how third-party rating systems support product comparison and LEED documentation.\nEvaluate the limitations of historical climate baselines for heat exposure and explain how forward-looking climate data informs material and design decisions over a 50-year service life.\nExplain how cool surfaces function within a systems approach to heat-resilient design\, connecting envelope performance\, energy use\, occupant health\, and urban heat island mitigation.\n\nThis webinar can be self-reported for 1 free general-hour of LEED\, WELL\, and/or AIA continuing education.

SUMMARY:Better Building with Thermal Breaks
DESCRIPTION:Thermal bridging is a major\, often overlooked source of heat loss that can significantly impact building performance\, comfort\, and durability. This webinar explores where thermal bridges commonly occur within the building envelope and how thoughtful design\, including the use of structural thermal breaks and continuous insulation\, can reduce heat transfer and improve overall efficiency. Participants will gain a practical understanding of key thermal performance concepts\, condensation risks\, and strategies for meeting evolving standards such as ASHRAE and LEED v5\, while supporting long-term building resilience and cost savings. \nBy the end of this webinar\, attendees will be able to: \n\nDefine thermal bridging and explain its impact on energy performance\, comfort\, and durability.\nInterpret key thermal metrics and terminology\, including U-values\, R-values\, and conductivity.\nIdentify common thermal bridging locations and evaluate strategies such as continuous insulation and thermal breaks. –\nExplain how thermal bridging influences condensation risk and how current standards and frameworks\, such as ASHRAE and LEED v5\, address mitigation.\n\nThis webinar can be self-reported for 1 free general-hour credit toward LEED\, WELL\, and/or AIA continuing education.
