Recycled Content Surfacing Materials: Identifying Value Under LEED and Beyond (Updated Course)
1 AIA HSW CE Hour | AIA Course Number: ICS06C
1 GBCI CE Hour for LEED Professionals | GBCI course ID: 0090009501
AIA Provider: Infospec, Inc.
Sponsor: Cosentino
Presenter: Deborah Scroggins
This one hour live course describes the importance of recycled content surfaces and their
environmental significance including reducing the use of natural resources and improving indoor
air quality. We will compare and contrast traditional and recycled surfacing materials and explain
the importance of “going beyond green.”

11:50 - 12:50 PM  Lunch sponsored by Greg Trimboli with Dynamic Closures

Expanded Polystyrene - The Economical Choice for Roofing Insulation
1 AIA HSW CE Hour | Course Number: EPS105
AIA Provider: Carlisle Construction Materials
Presenter: Kris Eschmeyer
• Define and understand how Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) is manufactured
• Understand the environmental features and benefits of EPS insulation including recyclability,
  LEED, thermal performance, and energy efficiency.
• Understanding key physical properties of the different EPS products used in Roofing applications.
• Understand the features and benefits of the different EPS products: standard, faced, and
  composites and which roofing applications they are used in.
• Understand the economic advantages when using EPS in different roofing applications than
  other insulations. Case Study examples cited. Understand what key components to consider
  when preparing  a specification for EPS vs another insulation product in a roofing application:
  R-Value, Compressive Strength, Codes, Product Performance, Labor Costs, LEED and
  Sustainability, Product Availability and Warranty.

02:00 - 03:00 PM

Up Close and Personal with Hard Surfacing Materials – A Tour
1 AIA HSW CE Hour | Course:  ICS06B
AIA Provider:  InfoSpec, Inc.
Sponsor: Cosentino
Presenter:  Kara Walsh
This one hour facility tour will better inform the designer about the various “HARD” surfacing
materials that are available and how they have evolved. This live course will provide a visual walking
tour where individuals can actually interact with the raw materials and see how they are transformed
into finished products. Integrating key sustainable concepts such as water conservation, life cycle
analysis indoor air quality and sustainable materials certifications, this course will compare and
contrast both the aesthetic and physical properties of the various materials with other hard surfacing
materials and illustrate how these attributes can greatly affect the end user, the project, and the
environmental impact.
