Green Codes Task Force Events

Over the course of 2010 Urban Green will offer a number of educational programs that will dig deeper into the details of some of the most important or technically challenging proposals that were released in the NYC Green Codes Task Force report.  These events will be organized within broad subject areas, such as Building Systems or Stormwater, with a distinct focus on the technical components of their implementation.

Building Envelope // This event has passed.

Several of the NYC Green Codes Task Force proposals address improvements to envelope performance. This session will examine the technical challenges to realizing four of these proposals and include case studies of projects that have successfully implemented similar systems to those that would be required. The proposals that will be discussed are EF03 Limit Heat Loss Through Exterior Walls, EF04 Promote Super-Insulated Exterior Walls, EF07 Minimize Air Leakage Through Building Exteriors, and EF05 Allow External Insulation Beyond Zoning Limits.
