Building science basics that every builder should know.
A one-day class that you can't afford to miss!
The demand for healthier, more durable, comfortable, energy-efficient and environmentally responsible homes is unprecedented. Green building is entering the mainstream, resonating with new home buyers as never before. The appetite for "green" among consumers is a seismic shift - a formerly fringe idea that is fast becoming today's norm.
"Green" may no longer mean added cost to the builder, with limited impact in the marketplace. In fact, green practices, including the time-tested principles of building science, can actually help builders achieve higher revenues along with new marketing opportunities and risk management.
Today's consumers want green homes and may be willing to pay a premium for them - not only because they're concerned for the environment but because they are drawn to tangible benefits such as reduced energy costs and improved indoor air quality.
This class will address the key principles of building science to help builders and contractors understand how to help improve profits by building greener homes.
