High-Performance Building Physics
September 28, 2016, 12:00 PM
Mike Pulaski, vice president at Thorton Tomasetti Consulting, will discuss the process of how sustainable high-performance buildings come to fruition. Drawing from more than 10 years experience on projects at Colby and from others around the globe, Pulaski will provide insight into how difficult design decisions are made and the rapidly evolving set of analytical tools available to assist. He will also discuss the integrative design process and how a basic understanding of building physics can help inform good design decisions that result in highly energy-efficient buildings.
