An introduction into security glazing applications for exterior and interior openings. This course will explain what type of events security glass is used for as well as the test methods used for determining which glass type qualifies for each event. The course will teach how these controlled environment testing procedures compare to real world scenarios.
  • Classify the levels of bullet resistant glass with regards to the weapons, ammunition, test methods, and locations where certain level glass may be found.
  • Differentiate weather events with regards to wind borne debris during Hurricanes and Tornadoes, and the ability to identify areas of risk and the potential loss in those areas.
  • Assess the different types of forced entry tests and how they match up to a real world scenario of an intruder using blunt objects and tools, whether a gun is fired or not, in order to break in and commit a crime.
  • Acquire a vast knowledge of glass types, and the feasibility of installing these into new or existing infrastructure, along with the costs that may be associated for these materials and installations.

Speaker: Matt Jacobsohn
2:30 – 2:45 pm Break
2:45 – 3:45 pm CEU Program: A Case Study: Plano STEM Academy by Stantek Architects

A unique space was needed to provide a new option for Plano ISD high school students, which would incorporate a STEM curriculum (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) into a non-traditional learning environment. To meet this challenge, Plano ISD chose to repurpose an existing office building. This 71,000 square-foot, three-story facility houses up to 600 students and is designed to be a completely open environment, where learning is collaborative, and immersive. With the exception of three science labs, and a dedicated computer modeling space, there are no confined spaces, or dedicated classrooms.

Speaker: Diego Barrera and Terry Hoyle
