Without proper design and planning, fenestration can significantly impact energy consumption and the occupants’ experience. Occupancy comfort can be negatively impacted due to drafts or excessive room heating from solar gains. Aesthetic and functional issues, such as condensation, frost formation, or water staining on interior surfaces during the winter, can also arise . This session will outline the importance of energy-efficient fenestration in commercial buildings, opportunities for new construction and full fenestration retrofits, and steps to make fenestration part of an overall energy efficiency plan that meets code requirements.
Kevin S. Louder Senior Manager, Commercial Fenestration Programs National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC) Greenbelt, Maryland
Kevin Louder has been in the fenestration industry since 2000 and is currently employed by the National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC) as the senior manager, Commercial Fenestration Programs with a primary focus on the commercial fenestration rating programs. He holds a bachelor of science degree in mechanical engineering and received an engineering-in-training certificate in Pennsylvania. He has been instrumental in developing a new rating procedure for commercial products using a trendline methodology. This refined process allows for every building to have the opportunity to showcase its efficiency and lead us into a future through continuous improvement in fenestration.
His primary area of study and work has been focused on thermal and heat transfer. His career started at one of the NFRC-accredited laboratories, performing thermal analysis on fenestration systems related to thermal performance ratings, condensation assessment, whole building facade analysis, Infrared thermography, durability through thermal cycling and climate exposure, and component evaluation using computer simulation, physical testing evaluation, and on-site field investigations. He has focused much of his early work in the commercial sector and has been instrumental in performing energy performance facade analysis on many well-known buildings.
Anthony Cinnamon, NCARB, is an associate principal with Wiss, Janney, Elstner Associates Inc. in the Chicago, Illinois, office. His expertise lies in the design and analysis of exterior enclosures with an emphasis on glass, curtainwalls, and fenestration systems. He has written numerous articles on the inspection, repair/restoration, and replacement of window and facade systems. He has also presented seminars domestically and internationally on fenestration-related topics, including typical window problems, testing and repair of window and curtainwall systems, and typical glass failures. Cinnamon currently serves as the chair of the board of directors of the NFRC.
3:15 p.m. – 4:15 p.m.: Adhered Masonry Seismic Testing
Session Classification: BET, C&S, EW Knowledge Level: Intermediate Recommended Prerequisites: Adhered masonry system familiarity, Awareness of seismic code requirements
Adhered masonry does not currently meet the national code. Code requiring inelastic seismic testing does not exist in our industry, and it’s impossible to reliably calculate all variables. Adhered masonry cladding typically meets a standard of care, but not code. Testing of six specimens for three of the most common assembly types is concluding this year (2023). These first test results in the industry will yield applicable rules of thumb. This testing required the development of a testing process using standards, all of which should be applicable to future codes.
We appreciate the RCI-IIBEC Foundation for contributing to this research.

3:15 p.m. – 4:15 p.m.: Implementing Deep Energy Retrofits is a Circus: Be the Ringmaster!
Session Classification: EW, R, SUS Knowledge Level: Intermediate Recommended Prerequisites: A general understanding of building science principles and common building retrofits.
As net-zero targets loom, the push is on to complete deep energy retrofits. The retrofits necessary to achieve these lofty targets are typically extensive and can be very intrusive. How do we implement them at occupied buildings? These projects are like a three-ring circus, with competing interests on all sides. Through the use of case studies, this session will explore how the building enclosure consultant can become the ringmaster, balancing the needs of project stakeholders, the surprises that come with existing buildings, and the quality and durability of the building enclosure necessary to achieve the project’s energy and carbon reduction goals.
