Wagdy Anis Symposium on Building Science 2022
The Sustainable Building Enclosure: Balancing Energy Performance and Durability with Other Building Life Cycle Goals | October 6, 2022
Symposium Overview
Thank you for joining us for the 2022 Wagdy Anis Symposium on Building Science, High Performance Building Enclosures: Balancing Energy Performance and Durability with Other Building Life Cycle Goals.
Over the course of the day we heard from 21 outstanding presenters in nine sessions and one incredible keynote from Jean Carroon FAIA LEED Fellow. We engaged in spirited discussions around the benefits of high performance building enclosures, from air sealing existing buildings and insulating masonry walls to a case study and LCA comparison of two academic buildings. Together, we enjoyed lots of food and a lively closing reception. We hope you enjoyed this symposium.
