    Theme: Controlling HAM* Transfer Through the Building Enclosure

    *Heat, Air, and Moisture

    As ever-stricter performance and sustainability targets are established for the built environment, members of the design and construction industry must work together to reduce the energy demands of new and existing buildings. We aim to produce and retrofit exciting, beautiful buildings – and at the same time achieve and even exceed energy code requirements. How does balancing these goals impact the design process? What new tools for problem solving are available to assist in navigating code requirements? Wagdy's lessons on the control of Heat, Air, and Moisture control are ever more important in practice today. At this year's fifth annual Wagdy Anis Symposium, we will explore successful approaches to meeting these aspirations.

    • Managing Heat Transfer to Meet Energy Code Requirements
    • Managing Control of Heat & Moisture Transfer
    • Managing HAM Control at Fenestration & Other Thermal Bridges
    • Continuity of HAM Control

    This event WILL be hybrid and virtual admission is $175. More information about the Wagdy Anis Symposium as well as a link to register can be found here: https://www.architects.org/events/757668/2024/10/10/wagdy-anis-symposium-on-building-science
