JULY CE LUNCHES


High Performance Gypsum: Protect against Mold, Moisture and Exposure

NGC070

1 LU/HSW

This course focuses on gypsum products manufactured with fiberglass facing which replaces the paper facing typically used on gypsum board. These products are regarded as “high performance” due to their superior weather resistance, superior fire resistance, and superior mold resistance. Five common product types include panels manufactured for 1.) exterior wall sheathing, 2.) shaftliner for cavity walls and area separation walls 3.) potential interior high-moisture conditions, 4.) tile backer boards for wet areas, and 5.) roof coverboards for low slope roof applications. The presentation outlines the high-performance characteristics of fiberglass faced gypsum products. The basic applications, attributes, advantages, and limitations of each of the five common product types are described. By understanding the performance and features of these fiberglass faced gypsum products, the specifications and drawing details can be properly prepared for successful use in buildings.

SMALL FIRM EXCHANGE

Tuesday, August 11

12 - 1 p.m.

Pensacola Library

Conference Room

239 N Spring St


RSVP


Sponsorship Opportunity Available

Small firms represent a significant portion of the Panhandle's architectural landscape. However, the diverse roles that small firm owners and employees often take on can lead to their interests being overlooked and their contributions undervalued. This collaborative event aims to connect small firms to discuss their needs and create a supportive environment for social interaction and collaboration—an opportunity often taken for granted in larger firms.

Our Goals:

  1. Advocate for Small Firms: We aim to promote the value of small firms both within the AIA and to the public, advancing the mutual interests of architects practicing in smaller settings.
  2. Foster Idea Exchange: We seek to establish a safe space for sharing ideas and information, helping all small firms thrive and discover new ways to engage clients.
  3. Build a Collaborative Community: We envision a community where small firms can come together socially, discuss challenges and successes, and collaborate on projects or designs when a single firm may find a task too daunting.

Join us for this discussion to explore how we can strengthen our community and elevate our collective goals and interests.
