FREE Online Training: Title 24 Part 6 Essentials

FREE Online Training for Energy Consultants and Industry Professionals

May 14th 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

2016 Title 24 Part 6 Essentials — Introduction to Residential Modeling is a three-hour online "virtual-classroom" training experience that answers the question: “Why bother with the modeling to demonstrate compliance with the California Building Energy Efficiency Standards?”

This course does NOT address how to use modeling software or include any hands-on work with the software. Rather, it is designed for individuals who are uncertain of the important role that modeling can play in complying with Title 24, Part 6. Specifically, it illustrates the benefits of using Performance Approach to compliance and how approved modeling software lets you avoid selected Prescriptive requirements by making tradeoffs between building features that are “better and worse” than Prescriptive.

After successfully completing this course, participants will be able to:

• Compare the Prescriptive and Performance approaches to compliance

• Describe, in general terms, how Performance modeling works and what it produces

• Use Joint Appendix 4 (JA4) to determine how alternative wall assemblies compare to Prescriptive requirements

• Given an example project, identify a set of “tradeoffs” among measures that likely will comply using the Performance approach
