architectural applications of five common building/construction materials • discuss why, by its nature (growth cycle, availability, molecular makeup), bamboo is considered one of the world’s most sustainable resources • discuss how laminated veneer bamboo (LVB) offers enhanced performance, strength and aesthetics over traditional forms of construction materials • identity applications for laminated veneer bamboo (LVB) with a focus on its ability to meet stability and strength requirements for structural and curtain wall systems, and • analyze the sustainability benefits, attributes and performance criteria of laminated veneer bamboo (LVB) relative to contributing to credits under the LEED® green building certification program ©2012 · Table of Contents Slide of 81 • About the

just the load bearing aspect of the design Architecturally exposed structural systems can greatly add to the intrigue a building design offers However, the decision to expose structural elements should not be made lightly There are several advantages and disadvantages to consider ©2012 · Table of Contents Slide of 81 • About the Instructor • About the Sponsor • Ask an Expert Exposed Structural Elements: Advantages By leaving the structural elements of a building exposed, the designer is able to create a more spacious interior environment, and showcase connections and material finishes Lighting and mechanical equipment can be easily accessed and maintained In addition, shorter construction times are probable, and lower construction costs result due to the lack of finishing

Instructor • About the Sponsor • Ask an Expert Reduced Profile Curtain Wall Systems: Steel Reduced profile systems have come into existence in an effort to reduce visible joinery lines and component interference through glass faỗades However, a reduction in structural materials leads to an increased reliance on the structural importance of the glass panels these systems incorporate A substantial amount of market demand for these systems comes from Europe, due in part to a lack of understanding in the Americas of the somewhat unexpected fracture points that glass can exhibit Point-supported glass provides a modern look with decreased visible barriers It also reduces the amount of materials required ©2012 · Table of Contents Corner clamped glass offers extremely transparent design capabilities It also reduces the amount of materials required Slide 68 of 81 • About the Instructor • About the Sponsor • Ask an Expert Reduced Profile Curtain Wall Systems: Steel Due to their appearance, point-supported glass systems are often referred to as spider supports The glass panels are joined using a sealant The back-up support can be provided by many different means, depending on the design specifications Tensioned cables, space frames, and trusses are a means by which to decrease the visual interruption of the back-up support ©2012 · Table of Contents Slide 69 of 81 • About

storefront designs for years Manufacturers have integrated thermal breaks to overcome the material’s thermal conductivity, but some thermal bridging may still occur Intricate, compartmentalized shapes are able to be produced, but there are environmental costs of manufacturing raw aluminum Most aluminum production is done using recycled materials in an effort to counteract these high environmental impacts Aluminum is most commonly utilized in stick-style curtain wall systems ©2012 · Table of Contents Slide 71 of 81 • About the Instructor • About the Sponsor • Ask an Expert Curtain Wall Systems:
