Concrete-faced insulated products are composite prefinished panels that are used to construct walls and roofing assemblies to maximize the energy efficiency, durability, and performance of a building envelope. This course discusses the design criteria used in designing energy-efficient buildings using concrete-faced continuous insulation systems for low-slope roofing, walls, and foundations. The functional and physical features of protective membrane roof (PMR) systems, concrete-faced insulated panels for walls and foundations, and concrete structural insulated panels (CSIPs) are evaluated.

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

  • Discuss energy-efficient building design considerations and the role of continuous insulation (ci) in enhancing the efficiency of the building envelope and thermal comfort levels.
  • Discuss how concrete contributes to sustainable building projects by examining the physical and performance characteristics of concrete.
  • Compare the performance of a protective membrane roof (PMR) assembly to that of a conventional roof assembly, and identify the advantages of installing a PMR system with concrete insulated panels in terms of its thermal, fire, and water resistance.
  • Evaluate the functional and physical features of concrete insulated sheathing panels, concrete-faced insulated perimeter wall panels, and concrete structural insulated panels (CSIPs), and discuss why these products improve the durability, energy efficiency, and life cycle of a wide variety of buildings.

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