PRESENTED BY COVE.TOOL

Course Description:

Shifting energy codes are challenging architects with a wide array of parameters to balance like energy, cost, daylight, views, and embodied carbon. Hiring a consultant for every kind of analysis is a burden on fees. Many architects are harnessing simulation to shape the design and details of their projects. To be successful, teams must understand the levers that impact the performance and set up processes for success. Join this session by diving into two case studies to generate beautiful analysis graphics and see how to shape the narrative in a data-driven design process.

Learning Objective 1:

Overview of key performance parameters on project and their financial impact. We’ll dive into various building performance analyses including daylight analysis, glare analysis, shadow analysis, sun hours, radiation studies and more. Then, we’ll examine how to balance cost to ensure the project is both high performance and within budget

Learning Objective 2:

Learn about how 2 distinct teams iterated to achieve high performance project design. In building design, collaboration is key. This course will provide examples of how teams can work together to create cost effective, sustainable building designs.

Learning Objective 3:

Use the case studies to understand the core workflow for performance driven decision making. To set up processes for success, architects must understand the key factors that impact a building’s performance.

Learning Objective 4:

Track and report projects to the AIA 2030.There are many misconceptions about the 2030 challenge. We’ll explain how simple it is to measure progress, reach targets, and report to the DDX.

BQ GOLF 2022 Tournament + Dinner Scholarship Fundraiser

10:00 am–8:00 pm

Lawrence Country Club
101 Causeway, Lawrence, NY 11559

Join us at the 2022 BQ Golf Tournament + Dinner Scholarship Fundraiser!

The Brooklyn Architects Scholarship Foundation (BASF) and the Queens Foundation for Architecture (QFA) are two distinct non-profit 501(c)3 organizations established to support students as they complete their accredited architecture programs in New York. The two foundations joined forces last year for a wildly successful fundraiser and have decided to make a greater impact on the field—together.

Monday, October 17, 2021 is an opportunity to take a day off from work, have fun on the golf course, and join us for dinner and cocktails after. BQ Golf is a great networking event that benefits crucial scholarship efforts to ensure that a diverse and dedicated pool of architectural students are supported on their paths to success.

Sponsorship opportunities are available. See event registration for sponsorship packages.
