Who: Dr. Helen Sanders, Vice President, Technical Business Development, SAGE Electrochromics, a subsidiary of Saint-Gobain. Dr. Pekka Hakkarainen, Vice President, Lutron Electronics. What: Integrated Window and Lighting Systems Can Help Meet Challenging New Building Codes, a continuing education course presented by Dr. Sanders and Dr. Hakkarainen examines how dynamic fenestration - in concert with proper window size and location, interior furniture layout, and electric lighting - can provide flexibility for changing conditions in a building during the day and help architects overcome challenges created by potential conflicts in high-performance building standards such as ASHRAE 189.1-2009, LEED and other emerging minimum energy codes. SageGlass® advanced dynamic glass, a product of Saint-Gobain, will be exhibited in large form geometric shapes at the SAGE booth #3663. The demonstrations will feature SageGlass’ unique ability to deliver energy savings in form factors that meet architects’ design needs. SageGlass is available in many geometric shapes including traditional squares and rectangles as well as trapezoids, parallelograms and triangles.
