Louver Design and Selection: What Every Architect Should Know (Removed)

This course is no longer active.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

Today’s louvers are not only functional but offer enhanced architectural design to the façade of many buildings. More than just a hole in a wall, louvers are responsible for reducing or eliminating water infiltration, and offer protection from heavy storms and hurricanes. Different types of louvers and their applications will be discussed in this course as well as specific terminology and AMCA/BSRIA testing procedures and certified rating programs.

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

  • Identify various architectural louver types.
  • Discuss AMCA/BSRIA testing procedures and certified rating programs.
  • Explain louver performance terminology: free area, pressure drop, water penetration, and wind driven rain.
  • Describe typical louver integration options into various building applications.

Approximately 1 hour, 30 minutes. Delivered online, at your own pace.
