The Science of Building Green March 16, 2010

ADPSR Monthly Presentation
The Science of Building Green: Materials, Energy, and Health

Architects, Designers, and Builders face an enormous array of decisions. Yet most of these are based on incomplete information about the physics that will actually happen to the building. On March 16 join a panel of experts for a presentation and in-depth discussion of what is really going on in our buildings – how energy flows, how buildings fail (and how to avoid that), and how they can contribute or injure human well-being and the health of our environment.The discussion will be led by John F. Straube, Ph.D., P.Eng. John is a specialist building science engineer who has been deeply involved in the areas of building enclosure design, moisture physics, and whole building performance as a consultant, researcher, and educator. Other panelists include Bruce King, Ecological Building Network, and others to be determined
