Intermediate
Let’s beat the code compliance game! As ASHRAE 90.1, IECC, Title 24 continue to update requirements, projects must keep pace to win the game. Learn what’s coming fast and furious for lighting design, how they will impact your projects and what design options can be applied to keep projects energy efficient and compliant.
General understanding of energy efficiency code’s role in project design, and knowledge of lighting controls is helpful, but not required.
Learning Objectives
- Learn the key energy code lighting requirements to keep your projects designed for energy efficiency and compliance.
- Gain understanding of what’s new or coming soon in lighting and control energy code requirements to prepare your future project designs for success.
- Acquire best practices you can apply to document your projects for success in construction, operation, efficiency, and compliance.
- Review real-world code compliant project applications that you can use on your project designs.
