2010 AIA/COTE Commissioning Symposium
Whole Building Commissioning: Verification by Design
AIA Headquarters ' Washington, DC ' October 21, 2010
Building commissioning views building quality holistically and uses scientific principles to improve building efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Presented by the American Institute of Architects, Whole Building Commissioning: Verification by Design will convene architects, providers, and other professionals involved with building performance to address the theme of commissioning as a quality assurance process integrated into design, construction and occupancy. This one day symposium will feature engaging sessions provided by expert multidisciplinary presenters actively involved in better functioning built environments. It will explore the reasons why commissioning should be so deeply integrated into the design and construction process that it links the vision of the design to the first days of occupancy and thereafter to building performance for the life of the building. The goal is to view building quality in a holistic sense and to apply scientific principles aiming at a steady improvement in building efficiency and effectiveness.
Symposium attendees will be eligible to earn 7 AIA CES credits and are invited to attend a networking reception following the symposium. Visit the symposium website for more information or to register. Please send questions regarding this event to kpickard@aia.org.
