SUMMARY:BUILDING EDUCATION SERIES 2024: HOW BUILDING CODES CAN CHANGE THE GAME
DESCRIPTION:Virtual Event: \nBuilding codes set the minimum standard for building efficiency.  In this session we will discuss how code has contributed to creating a healthier\, safer\, and more operationally efficient built environment. We will review how simply adopting the most current code can help us build better buildings and begin to address the built environment’s impact on climate change.  Our speakers will compare how Ohio code\, which has recently been updated\, stacks up to the rest of the country and the midwest.  We will learn how Boston was able to incorporate electrification in their code requirements which supports their long term municipal sustainability goals.  We will leave time for an open discussion and Q&A on how building codes can help us mitigate the effects of climate change.\n\n\nModerator: Matthew Setzekorn\, Principal\, Emerald Built Environments\n\nSpeakers:\nEmma Hurbanis\, Building Codes and Policy Associate\, Midwest Energy Efficiency Alliance\nDouglas Fentz\, Emeriti Professor\, Ferris State University\, ASHRAE Distinguished Lecturer\nJacob Knowles\, Chief Sustainability Officer\, BR+A Consulting Engineers\nColin Schless\, Director\, Client Decarbonization Services\, Turner Construction\n2 continuing education credits for: BOMA\, AEE\, ASHRAE\,  AIA HSW\, certificate of attendance available for self reporting for Professional Engineers\, LEED and others. \nTo self report credits for USGBC LEED Professionals find instructions here. \n$15 for members of AIA\, ASHRAE\, 2030 Districts\, Cleveland State University\, Greater Cleveland Partnership\, USGBC\, City of Cleveland \n$20 for non-members \nStudents attend for free \nZoom link will be sent after registration in complete. \nTHANKS TO OUR EVENT SPONSOR TURNER CONSTRUCTION \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:AIA Cleveland Event: Sandfest
DESCRIPTION:This is an AIA Cleveland event: \nEvery summer\, AIA Cleveland goes to the beach to raise funds for the ACE Mentor Program! \nOur chapter’s signature event combines volleyball and sand castle construction to present a unique opportunity for Cleveland architects and designers to engage with the public on one of Cleveland’s premier beaches (Edgewater Beach just west of Downtown Cleveland). \nLast year\, in our 7th annual event\, we raised $8\,000 dollars for the ACE Mentorship Program Scholarship Fund. Thanks to Independence Excavating and through the assistance of Turner Construction and the Cleveland Metroparks we were able to raise a generous amount for ACE! Winners included Vocon (Best of the Beach and Runner-Up); GPD Group(Best Overall); Perspectus (Volleyball Runner-Up) and Vocon (Volleyball Winner). \nWe are thrilled to unveil the theme for this year’s Sand Fest: “Adventures in Pop Culture”! Prepare to show off your artistic flair as we dive into the worlds of beloved characters\, iconic scenes\, and unforgettable moments from film\, television\, and beyond. Whether you’re a fan of superheroes\, classic cartoons\, or timeless movie moments\, this theme offers endless possibilities for creativity and fun. We can’t wait to see how you bring these pop culture adventures to life in the sand. \nThe ACE Mentor Program is an after-school mentorship initiative that teams fourteen CMSD student teams with architecture\, construction\, and engineering professionals to respond to a Cleveland-based RFP and encourage consideration of careers in design & construction. All proceeds raised go to the ACE Mentor Program scholarship fund. \nSee details and registration on the AIA webite

SUMMARY:Cleveland 2030 District Tour Series: Cleveland Museum of Natural History (SOLD OUT)
DESCRIPTION:The Cleveland Museum of Natural History’s transformation project is our Green Building Challenge overall winner.  This project is an unprecedented reinvention that aligns the Museum’s architecture with its mission of instilling a passion for nature and science in all learners. Working in partnership with DLR Group\, this is the first museum in the U.S. to achieve LEEDv4 BD+C NC Platinum certification and was recently named one of the most beautiful museums in the world by Prix Versaille\, a global architecture and design award program held annually at UNESCO (United Nations Educational\, Scientific and Cultural Organization). \nWe will tour the building to appreciate the beautiful design while learning about the many innovative features and new technology used in its construction to save energy\, conserve water\, and create a healthy environment. This project reduced indoor potable water use by 37% and outdoor water use by 60%. They reduced energy use by 32% using passive strategies (low-e glazing\, R-30 roof insulation\, shading) and active systems (HVAC plant with efficient heat recovery chiller and solar photovoltaic arrays).  That’s only the beginning of what we will learn on this tour.  Join us to discover more about this truly exceptional Cleveland treasure. \nThe tour is limited to 20 attendees. \nParking is available in their attached lot or metered parking is offered on the street around Wade Oval. \nWe will follow the tour with a happy hour for networking and refreshments. \nREGISTER HERE
