Description:
High-performance requirements are on the rise, and when it comes to small-scale housing projects, delivery often breaks down between roles. Designers, mechanical contractors, building officials, and other professionals are being asked to meet higher standards, with tighter timelines and fewer opportunities for redesign.
This webinar series focuses on what other disciplines need from you—so projects move forward smoothly and get built right the first time. Sessions are designed to support multidisciplinary learning and better coordination across roles.
What You'll Learn:
What residential builders and project teams need from designers and mechanical professionals to deliver high-performance homes.
Practical coordination strategies that reduce redesign cycles and permitting delays.
How different disciplines interpret high-performance requirements — and where misalignment typically occurs.
Real-world approaches you can apply immediately on small-scale housing projects
