IES is a proud sponsor and presenter at BuildingEnergy NYC 2020, which this year will be a virtual conference and trade show on Sept. 23 & 24. On the 24th, IES’ Charley Stevenson joins Alison Mears, Director, Healthy Materials Lab, Parsons School of Design at The New School, along with Daniel Piselli, Senior Associate, Director of Sustainability, Austin Sakong, Senior Associate, both of FXCollaborative, in a presentation on Improving your Project’s Material Health.
A project’s construction materials can have significant and enduring health effects—not only on the building’s occupants, but also on the community where the products are produced and disposed of, and on the people manufacturing and installing them. This comprehensive session emphasizes that with basic understanding, early coordination and clear communication, every project team can deliver a healthier building.
Now in its ninth year, BuildingEnergy NYC is designed by and for practitioners in the fields of high-performance building and design, energy efficiency and renewable energy. Every year, sessions are chosen by a committee of NESEA Members and highlight best practices and lessons learned.
