ABOUT THE TOPIC:
Presentation of the difference early design decisions can have in terms of impact on the thermal performance of the building envelope compared to decisions that are made later in the process. These considerations will be interwoven with an overview of the responsibilities defined in the energy modeling guidelines for different team members.
