SUMMARY:2022 Title 24\, Part 6 Essentials — Single-family Standards: Introduction to the Performance Approach
DESCRIPTION:Use the 2022 Multifamily Energy Inspection Checklist to practice streamlined inspection of installation scenarios while also targeting top categories of high-value energy savings and impact on compliance. Effective building energy efficiency enforcement is reviewed and practiced as a comprehensive process — from initial consult of building features listed in permitted documentation to review of what contractors document as installed to visual confirmation of these features on-site. This highly interactive online live course is designed to provide Building Inspectors with the essential knowledge and skills they need to more quickly and effectively enforce California’s 2022 Multifamily Building Energy Efficiency Standards (Title 24\, Part 6 or the Energy Code). This course is delivered in two half-day sessions held on two consecutive days. Participants must attend both sessions to complete the course.

SUMMARY:2022 Title 24\, Part 6 Essentials — Nonresidential Standards: Introduction to the Performance Approach
DESCRIPTION:COURSE DESCRIPTION\n\nIn this introductory course\, explore the fundamentals of how “compliance tradeoffs” work and how this approach gives you flexibility in meeting the Nonresidential Energy Code. Learn how to get around Prescriptive requirements you want to avoid by using a combination of building features to balance your energy budget. Choose between a variety of options that are “better than and worse than Prescriptive” for envelope\, mechanical\, lighting and PV and battery systems to bring an example project into compliance with the Energy Code (Title 24\, Part 6 or the California Building Energy Efficiency Standards) — without getting bogged down in the details. \nThis course does NOT address how to use the modeling software; rather it focuses on a high-level practical and conceptual look at how the Performance approach works with nonresidential projects.    \nCOURSE OBJECTIVES \n\nCompare the Prescriptive and Performance approaches to compliance with the 2022 Energy Code.\nDescribe\, in general terms\, how Performance modeling works and what it produces.\nUse Joint Appendix 4 (JA4) to determine how alternative wall assemblies compare to nonresidential Prescriptive requirements of the 2022 Energy Code.\nGiven an example nonresidential project\, identify a set of “tradeoffs” among measures that likely will comply with the 2022 Energy Code using the Performance Approach.\nSummarize the commissioning requirements for nonresidential building projects.\n\nAvailable CEUs:\nAIA (2.0 LU | HSW); ICC (0.2 CEU); CABEC (2 CEUs)
