SUMMARY:Advocacy Roundtable: Protecting the Profession Amid Political Unpredictability
DESCRIPTION:The first AIA Austin Advocacy Roundtable of the year will collaboratively explore recent regulatory decisions and government actions that impair the ability of Architects to fully serve their clients and communities and to protect the health\, safety\, and welfare of building occupants. The suddenness\, lack of consultation\, ambiguity\, aggression\, and failure to address external consequences of these actions both results from and contributes to a volatile and precarious political and cultural landscape. In light of the ongoing uncertainty\, this Roundtable brings together professionals directly impacted by local\, state\, and federal actions who will share the background of one issue and the professional and personal impact it has had. Participants will together discuss strategies individual professionals\, practices\, and AIA can take to proactively protect the profession in light of the new modus operandi in government. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nDiscuss the pending proposal from the Department of Education to remove of the “professional” designation from professional architecture degrees\, its potential impact on the education and training of future architects\, and strategies to challenge the change.\nAssess the potential impacts of the State Comptroller revoking certification of all Historically Underutilized Businesses (HUBs) not based on veteran status and explore potential substitutions of other programs and opportunities.\nDescribe the inadvertent redefinition of “Gross Floor Area” in the Land Development Code by the Austin Board of Adjustments and discuss the opportunity to fix ambiguous code and inconsistently applied interpretations.\nStrategize ways to proactively protect and support Architects and related design professionals as they need to adapt to changing regulatory and technical requirements while preparing for further unforeseeable changes.\n\nSpeakers:\nFederal\, State and Local: TBD\nModerator: Jason John Paul Haskins\, AIA + LEED AP BD+C \nFormat:\nModerated roundtable with three featured professionals and open discussion. Bring your own lunch. \n1.5 LU Pending. Spaces are limited and registration is required. \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:BEC: Austin Committee Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Join BEC: Austin for their monthly meeting featuring a presentation and lunch. REGISTER NOW>> \nThe Architect’s Building Science Toolkit\n \nWUFI is a hygrothermal modeling software tool used to evaluate how heat\, air\, and moisture move through building enclosure assemblies\, and it can be a powerful addition to an architect’s building science toolkit. This course demystifies hygrothermal analysis and shows how\, with a manageable amount of work\, architects can integrate it into their design process to evaluate wall and roof assemblies\, test common assumptions\, and move beyond rules of thumb and “code minimum” thinking – you don’t need a PhD. \nUsed as a design tool\, hygrothermal analysis supports health and safety by reducing the likelihood of conditions that contribute to mold growth\, improving the durability and longevity of construction\, and helping anticipate moisture risks and understand drying potential for new construction\, renovations\, and historic preservation. It also supports environmental stewardship by enabling more confident evaluation of insulation and enclosure strategies that can reduce energy use without inadvertently increasing moisture-related failure risk. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nDescribe what hygrothermal analysis is.\nUnderstand how hygrothermal analysis software can be used as a design tool and become familiar with the process.\nUnderstand the conditions where mold growth can occur.\nExamine several case studies to see how hygrothermal analysis improved durability and performance of roof and wall assemblies.\n\nCredits:\n1 LU/HSW \nPresenter:\nWill Wood\, AIA\, is a Principal at McKinney York Architects. Educated in architecture and engineering\, he maintains an interest in both design and building science.  In addition to leading design on institutional\, commercial\, and residential projects\, Will oversees sustainability and fueling the design culture in the office. He has a strong interest in materiality and detailing and is an advocate for modernizing building practices and energy efficiency. \nREGISTER NOW>> \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
