Construction and Deep Energy Retrofits - January 2010
Construction and Deep Energy Retrofits -- January 2010
As interest in energy efficient design and construction remained a key topic for this roundtable group, this quarter’s roundtable focused on foundation construction methods to control moisture. In the second half of the session, we discussed super-insulation and other deep-energy retro-fits and some of the opportunities and challenges in implementing these methods into new construction and existing buildings. We finished off with a quick look at the deep energy retrofits of the Empire State Building and provided some valuable resources for attendees.
