High-Performance Insulated Sandwich Walls Using Composite Design (Removed)

This course is no longer active. AEC Daily will not report completion information for this course.

This course explains and illustrates how high-performance, fully composite insulated sandwich wall panels can be detailed to achieve continuous insulation. It explores the pros, cons, and attributes of wythe connectors such as carbon fiber trusses as well as panel insulation options, manufacturing and testing procedures, and installation methods. It concludes by providing a comprehensive set of sample installations to illustrate the broad range of building types and appearances that can be created with insulated sandwich wall systems.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

  • Improve building envelope performance with continuous insulation (c.i.) concepts and details.
  • Specify the type and placement of composite panel connectors that eliminate thermal bridging.
  • Leverage the comprehensive range of aesthetic appearances of composite insulated sandwich wall panels to create appealing structures.
  • Utilize large-scale composite insulated sandwich wall panels to reduce construction time and cost.
