Live Webinar with Grimm + Parker 

AIAPV has partnered with Grimm + Parker Architects to provide a limited number of slots for live webinar access to the firm's Lunch & Learn CEU events on the first Tuesday of each month. We are grateful for Grimm + Parker's support, which allows the chapter to offer this valuable benefit to our members.

A Path to Low-Carbon Building Design with LEED v5

This course explores USGBC’s LEED v5 framework, highlighting credits and strategies to deliver ultra-low carbon buildings. Participants will review the intention behind the LEED v5 system goals, targeting decarbonization. We will explore the science of carbon emissions and their critical role in global warming, providing a foundational understanding of the chemical properties of carbon and its impact on the environment. Participants will examine the primary sources of carbon emissions in building products, starting from the sourcing of raw materials to the manufacturing process, and learn how specified products can assist in designing out carbon. The course will dive into practical applications for a new LEED v5 credit, “Reduce Peak Thermal Loads,” and examine how phase change material ceilings contribute to this credit. Leave this course with a clear understanding of how LEED v5 prioritizes decarbonization and how your role as a specifier plays a key part in carbon reduction.
