Course Description:
Building Analy
st training provides the foundation of building science through the framewo
rk of an audit process to understanding the "how's" and "why's" of building
issues: ice dams, mold and indoor air quality. It is the quintessential "h
ouse-as-a-system" in what goes on in building durability, comfort and energ
y usage.
This five day cou
rse provides an understanding of the BPI Building Analyst Standards through
classroom studies and in-field activities. The in-field portion of the cla
ss will provide hands-on training with gas appliance testing, blower door u
se and set-up and proper and accurate combustion appliance zone testing in
the state-of-the-art NYSWDA Pressure House and Heating Lab.
The class is followed by a review of the
BPI standards and the 100-question (2 hour) Building Analyst test. After t
he trainees successfully complete the written portion of the test, we will
schedule them for the Field test.
