SUMMARY:BEC: Austin Committee Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Join BEC: Austin for their monthly meeting featuring a presentation and lunch. \nBuilding Enclosure Control Layer Fundamentals\npresented by Keith Simon with Salas O’Brien \nModern high-performance building enclosures utilize control layers to manage heat\, air\, water\, and vapor transport through walls\, roofs\, waterproofing\, and fenestration. This presentation will provide an introduction to the building science of these key four phenomena of building physics\, the mechanism for how they work\, and strategies for controlling their transport in assemblies. The goal of this presentation is that each participant will be able to identify how common building materials (e.g. water resistive barriers\, air barriers\, insulation\, curtain wall\, concrete\, etc.) are able to control air\, heat\, water\, and vapor and describe which metrics are used to quantify those movements. These metrics will be shown in the context of the requirements of common buildings codes and industry standards. Recent building science research will be shared along with developments and upcoming changes to these metrics. \nLearning Objectives \n\n\nDescribe the mechanisms of heat\, air\, bulk water\, and vapor and how they transport through building assemblies.\nQuantify the importance of air barriers and common challenges with their installation that leads to poor performance\, increased energy use and moisture related damage.\nSpecify the use and identify proper materials to provide continuous insulation to increase energy performance and get to Net Zero.\nIdentify key strategies for achieving durable\, energy-efficient\, and thermally comfortable wall\, roof\, and below-grade assemblies through proper design\, installation and testing.\n\n1 LU/HSW(pending) \n\n\nBEC: Austin is an interdisciplinary organization that promotes the exchange of information on building enclosures and related science specific to the climate of Central Texas. \nInterdisciplinary: architects\, engineers\, contractors\, building owners\, consultants\, facility managers\, code officials\, educators\, manufacturers\, and those with a stake in building enclosure performance \nExchange of information: discussion\, training\, education\, outreach\, and awareness \nBuilding enclosures and related science: energy-efficiency\, moisture control\, indoor air quality\, longevity\, and durability \nBEC: Austin typically meets the first Wednesday of each month from 12-1pm. To receive reminders\, please sign up for the BEC mailing list here.\n2026 BEC: Austin Committee\nChair: Michael Salinas\, AIA\nChair Elect: John Byrd\, AIA\nAIA Austin staff liaison: Julia Brown

SUMMARY:ARE 5.0 Study Group + DISCUSSION
DESCRIPTION:ARE 5.0 Study Group\nThe AIA Austin office at 801 W 12th street hosts a study group on Wednesdays from 6pm – 7:30pm to study for the ARE 5.0 exams. Our study group also communicates via Discord. Please email brianna_deleon@gensler.com and cc aia.austin.ep@gmail.com for questions and inquiries.\n\n\n\n\nOnce every other month the study group will have either a guest speaker or a guided work through an exam question. This will be accompanied by Food and Drink. More details TBA.\n\nFebruary 4\nApril 1\nJune 3\nAugust 5\nOctober 7\n\n\nARE Materials Available for Check-Out\nClick Here to view the ARE Study Materials available for check-out at AIA Austin. Please email rob@aiaaustin.org to arrange and appointment to check-out your requested ARE Study Materials
