Virtual Lunch & Learn | Dec. 02

Please join CMAA-SAC for our December 02 Lunch & Learn
Topic: Total Building Commissioning and Construction Managers: Facilitating Team-Based Solutions
Sponsored by: Farnsworth Group

Commissioning is the process of ensuring a building’s systems are functioning properly. Historically, the Commissioning Authority (CxA) provides expert oversight for the Mechanical/Plumbing/Electrical systems. Recently, other building systems such as Building Enclosure are being included in the commissioning processes; leading to Total Building Commissioning. The presentation will provide a “Commissioning 101” overview of the procedures and processes and how Construction Managers can use commissioning and the recent CxC (Construction Commissioning Specialist) services to be proactive in resolutions to project issues.

The presentation will be comparable to AIA and will help you fulfill CEU’s for other organizations. Attendance Certificates will be made available to all attendees. Syllabus (1 hour CEU)

All proceeds will go towards funding the annual scholarships at our awards banquet in June.
