Our new self-paced course on AEC Daily — Insulated Precast Enclosures: Strategies for Controlling Performance, Quality, and Cost — explains and illustrates how high-performance, fully composite insulated precast sandwich wall panels can be designed and specified to manage aesthetics, quality, performance, and cost. It explores the attributes of wythe connectors such as carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) grid trusses, options for achieving continuous insulation, manufacturing and testing procedures, and strategies for managing costs.
It concludes by providing illustrative sample installations to demonstrate the broad range of building types and appearances that can be created with insulated precast enclosures. (1 AIA LU/HSW). It nicely complements our embedded and operational carbon reduction courses on AEC Daily and CE Center.
