Our speaker will be Peter Yost, Building-Wright, Brattleboro, VT. Peter brings more than 30 years’ experience in building, researching, teaching, writing, and consulting on high-performance buildings. His expertise ranges from construction waste management and advanced framing to energy efficiency, indoor air quality, moisture management, and building durability. Among other certifications, Peter is a certified instructor/course author for the NAHB Advanced Green Building: Building Science certificate program. Peter’s work includes both academic and vocational instruction, field research on building products, building investigations, construction document review, and technical research and writing.
Tonight’s presentation will assume that we all know the minimum requirements of the NH Building Code relating to energy conservation. We will explore how the code should be interpreted to make building science “sense”. From there, the discussion will move to how the principles of building science should be expressed in new construction and existing building performance. Discussion is the key, as this will guide the content of Peter’s presentations. Future discussions will touch on high performance homes and methods of construction; compatibility of new building products and more.
