This event is a hands-on learning and networking event that begins at our BELi lab. Participants will receive an IR thermography for building enclosures overview, challenge our escape room, detect and document air leaks in our building using pressurization assisted IR thermography, and then join an IR walking tour surveying existing and new buildings with […]

This workshop teaches participants how to perform air tightness testing following ASTM E3158. The workshop is led by instructors with significant experience performing air tightness testing on large buildings. Participants are instructed how to use multiple blower doors and how to perform guarded testing. The instructions are hands-on and require participants to setup blower doors, […]
Participants will prepare a variety of sensors, assemble system inter-wiring and program data acquisition modules for the purpose of monitoring building enclosures. The 1-day course reviews sensors theory, experimental design, sensor construction and wiring, measurement system wiring and multiplexing, measurement system programming and commissioning. Participants will take home sensors and may take a complete kit […]
