As urban areas become more dense, land values increase, and the demand for space becomes more challenging, developers are seeking alternative innovative approaches to parking cars that allow a project to proceed while meeting all parking and sustainability requirements. High-density parking (HDP) systems are able to park 30% - 400% more vehicles than a traditional garage in the same amount of space. This course explains the origins, history, and types of high-density parking. The sustainable advantages of HDP systems are examined and design considerations are discussed.

When specifying touchless faucets, reliability, sensor, sustainability and durability are important.
But have you considered the advantages of having an integrated ASSE1070 certified scald protection mixer?
Or a hands free faucet that can run for 15 years without changing batteries?
Or an electronic faucet that offers the widest sustainability options?
This presentation will discuss how the E-Tronic® 80 faucet is equipped with more than the basics in touchless faucets. From the thermostatic mixer that eliminates leak points, superior sensor, availability in 0.35 GPM to 1.5 GPM, choice of power supply to Bluetooth enabled control for flushing, metering and monitoring water savings.
Chicago Faucets has engineered the E-Tronic® 80 for performance and reliability every time – no matter how you choose to specify it!

CO2 emissions from healthcare in the world's largest economies account for about 5% of their national carbon footprints.
Increasingly, leading health organizations are looking to decarbonize facilities, improving health outcomes and reducing utility costs. The presentation integrates architecture and building engineering aspects of the process to reduce carbon in facilities, including both operational and embodied carbon. Key principles begin with designing for the patient experience and thermal comfort. This approach focusses on managing peak solar loads, eliminating the need for air changes beyond minimum code required ACH. This model saves first costs, and creates flexibility for alternate comfort delivery systems, like chilled beams. Control systems that integrate process loads enable a new way to manage annual thermal resources. This is consistent with next generation central plants based on pumping energy like heat recovery chillers or ground source heat pumps. These plants provide a thermal regime consistent with chilled beams, enabling the lowest energy use outcomes. Design tools that architect and engineers share are demonstrated as part of a design methodology to achieve this paradigm.
