Sika is pleased to offer FREE weekly live webinars hosted by our industry experts. Our Sika Webinar Series provides relevant topics for the construction industry including building solutions and new technologies. We look forward to you joining us at one or more of our sessions below!
Advantages of Polyiso for Below Grade Applications
When: June 21st
Time: 2pm ET
Earn: 1 AIA Credit
Description:
This course explores the below-grade use of polyisocyanurate (POLYISO) insulation to meet energy code and maximize thermal performance of the building foundation. Let us help dispel the myths that have been created relative to POLYISO insulation while discussing its thermal performance, water absorption, and load capacity – the three primary characteristics for below grade insulation. In addition, we will discuss how the insulation can provide protection for the foundation waterproofing system.
Do's & Don'ts of Concrete Repair (Part 1)
When: June 23rd
Time: 2pm ET
Earn: Non-Credit

Polyiso: The Next Generation Air and Water Resistive Barrier
When: July 19th
Time: 2pm ET
Earn: 1 AIA Credit
Description:
In the wake of the green movement, combined with rising energy
costs, building sustainability has become an important topic. This course
examines how foil-faced polyisocyanurate (polyiso) continuous insulation can
function as a multiple control layer, providing a building with an air and
water-resistive barrier and a thermal control layer. Additionally, this course
reviews building codes and standards for meeting the continuous insulation
requirements in steel stud building envelope designs, the benefits of using
polyiso insulation in wall assemblies, and how polyiso insulation meets NFPA
285 requirements.
