This presentation explores the principles and applications of helical masonry beaming, a reinforcement method that improves the stability and safety of masonry structures. It begins with an overview of common causes of masonry failures, such as bulging walls, cracking, and excessive moisture infiltration, while also summarizing common post-installed repair options. The discussion then shifts to supplemental horizontal joint reinforcing, highlighting its role in masonry retrofits and its various applications. A primary focus of the presentation is helical masonry beaming, a specialized form of horizontal joint reinforcing that allows masonry to span openings safely. This section covers where helical beaming is used, how it works, and proper installation techniques. Following the presentation, an in-person, hands-on training will typically be conducted, demonstrating the installation of both retrofit ties and helical beaming in a real-world setting.

Rainwater harvesting is a sustainable and economic solution to help ease some of the water scarcity and drought-related issues facing large swaths of the US. Utilizing permeable pavers to cleanse, capture, and convey stormwater to an underground storage system can provide harvested stormwater that can potentially be used for irrigation, laundry, toilets, car washing, and numerous non-potable water needs depending on what is allowed in local and state regulations. This presentation will provide real-world solutions to successfully capture, store and reuse rainwater, while educating the audience on the key design considerations required to implement the harvesting system. Design considerations that will be discussed include soil conditions and modifications (if necessary), hydrologic design; structural design for the permeable paver system and vault system; pump and discharge, pipe sizing, sizing the storage volume based on demand and precipitation; and overflow and bypass considerations.

Commercial roofing systems are quite varied. As such, their performance expectations are varied, and their suitability for different applications vary. Certain types of high performance roofing systems require specific components, and performance standards to achieve energy efficient and durable life cycle performance. This course describes the high performance attributes of extruded polystyrene insulation (XPS) in commercial roofing applications including PRMA (green/vegetated), mechanically attached, architectural metal and recover systems for which XPS is uniquely suited. It defines the building code/performance standards and best specification practices for those systems. Further, it compares various insulation types, how they are manufactured, and how the manufacturing process effects the physical properties and performance of each type of insulation.

One of the most complex and least understood areas where fire can propagate is at the perimeter of a multi-story building. Not only can fire spread from floor-to-floor via the edge-of-slab/curtain wall intersections but also along the exterior building enclosure where untested, combustible components are often installed. This program outlines best design practices for providing fire protection for building occupants per ASTM E2307 and E2874.
