The Good. The Bad. And the Ugly –
Three Approaches to a New Façade on an Existing Building
Seminar and Luncheon
Thursday, October 3, 2019
The Vue Event Venue
We are living in a time where many of our existing buildings are approaching their design service life. Energy costs continue to rise along with expectations for building occupant comfort. This talk will present case studies to explore three approaches to extending the life of the building including partial façade retrofit and glass replacement; installation of a new veneer system over the existing framing; and full replacement of the complete building skin.
Speaker: Leonard Pianalto, BASc, MSc, P.Eng, LEED AP, FEC, Associate, RJC Engineers
