SUMMARY:December PES Webinar
DESCRIPTION:** All Student Members please contact the registration chair. \n\nDecember Professional Education Seminar (PES) Webinar\nWhen: Noon-2pm on Wednesday\, December 8th\, 2021\n	Topic 1: Integrity (How to Respond When Things Go Wrong)\nSpeaker 1: Terry Rogers\nIntegrity is often used to describe people and their traits. Some descriptions of integrity are exhibiting conduct that conforms to accepted standards of right and wrong\, remaining truthful even when it means taking responsibility for failures\, and being faithful to high moral standards. A prerequisite to integrity is to have established norms\, standards\, behaviors\, etc. that everyone agrees are generally appropriate and applicable to all situations. Integrity is also a term that can be used when describing physical assets\, processes\, structures\, and even organizations. \nWhen assessing a building or structure we evaluate the physical aspect of integrity. When attributing integrity to processes and organizations\, a different set of examples and characteristics come to mind. This presentation will discuss how the concept of integrity permeates the engineering\, design\, construction\, commissioning\, and long- term operations of facilities. Integrity is demonstrated by how we respond to\, and how we behave when we make mistakes or encounter the unexpected. \n				\n	Terry has over 39 years of progressive experience in Critical Facilities operations and management including strategic planning\, critical infrastructure design\, operations\, and commissioning; business protection and recovery; preventive and predictive maintenance; technical training and professional training development. \nTerry is an ASHRAE Distinguished Lecturer and a voting member of ASHRAE TC9.9 “Mission Critical Facilities\, Data Centers\, Technology Spaces\, & Electronic Equipment“\, ASHRAE SSPC 90.4 “Energy Standard for Data Centers”\, as well as ASHRAE SPC-127 and GPC-1.6P. He is on the Board of Directors of the Building Commissioning Association’s Southeast Region and has authored or co-authored books\, whitepapers\, and presentations on Critical Facilities\, facilities management\, and formal commissioning. Terry is active with the Lawrence Livermore National Lab’s Energy Efficiency High Performance Computing Working Group and the 7×24 Exchange International and local Carolinas chapter. He has developed and taught multiple training classes in the design\, construction\, operation\, and maintenance of critical facilities including commercial nuclear power plants\, aerospace facilities\, and large data centers. \nTerry has performed site reliability assessments for more than 50 sites in over 20 countries across 5 continents. Terry writes a bi-monthly column in Mission Critical magazine called Sustainable Operations. \n	Topic 2: Pitfalls of Legal Activity for Design-build Engineers\nSpeaker 2: Tom Gilbertson\nThe life of an ASHRAE Member can take some funny turns. As design engineers\, we conduct our activity in a bit of a vacuum. But we can’t assume that everyone we work with has an understanding of\, and a vocabulary to match\, the activities that we do. This presentation will cover the importance of understanding the perspective of who you’re working with (e.g.\, developers\, architects\, contractors)\, discuss strategies to take when things go wrong\, and provide an overview of what can befall engineers in the legal system. \n				\n	Thomas Gilbertson has more than five decades of experience as a mechanical engineer. Since 1981\, he has been the President of Thomas A. Gilbertson & Assoc. Inc. He joined ASHRAE in 1961\, became a Distinguished Member of ASHRAE in 2013\, and received the Distinguished Service Award in 2014 and 2015. He has served in more than a dozen roles for ASHRAE\, including as Chair on a Refrigeration Technical Committee. He holds patents for a water side economizer\, a pressurized ice building chilled water system\, and a refrigerant pump. He served in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. \n	If you have attended any of our virtual meetings and still need a certificate\, please email Reception@nccashrae.org and request a survey link.  Your completed responses will qualify you to receive your certificate as a pdf via email.

SUMMARY:September 2021 - PES Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Professional Education Seminar (PES) WebinarTopic: Electrification and Decarbonization of the Built Environment-Speakers: Patrick Murphy\, PE\, LEED AP BD+C\, CPHC\, Associate Principal | Director of Sustainable Design\, R.G. Vanderweil Engineers\, LLP \n  \n  \n\nIntroduction by Patti Gunderson\, Building Science Research Engineer\, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory\nMain Speaker: Patrick Murphy\, PE\, LEED AP BD+C\, CPHC\, Associate Principal | Director of Sustainable Design\, R.G. Vanderweil Engineers\, LLP\n\n  \nA growing number of universities\, corporations\, cities and states are establishing carbon neutrality and carbon emissions reduction goals for the coming 20-30 years. Given that major new construction and renovation projects will be operational during this period\, designs for these projects need to aggressively reduce emissions and/or be ready for net zero emissions during their lifespan in order for these institutions to achieve their emissions goals. The key to achieving these strategies is the elimination of direct fossil fuel emissions from building operations through the electrification of building energy systems\, and leveraging growing sources of clean\, renewable electricity. \n \nPatrick Murphy As Director of Sustainable Design for Vanderweil Engineers\, Patrick is leveraging his passion and experience in sustainable\, integrated\, and innovative building design to inform designs through rigorous energy and water analysis. Patrick’s background as an architectural engineer with a focus on sustainable MEP systems informs his multi-disciplinary and collaborative approach to building design.  Patrick’s career is highlighted by multiple awards\, speaking at several conferences\, and his involvement and leadership in the design of multiple LEED Platinum and net zero projects.
