Museum of Natural Sciences 11 West Jones Street Raleigh, NC 27601 The 2012 North Carolina Triangle Chapter of the USGBC's Natural Talent Design Competition provides an applied learning experience in the principles of integrated design, sustainability, innovation and social consciousness, all of which are components of the LEED® Green Building Rating System™. Tomorrow's green design innovators are today's students and young professionals throughout the country. The North Carolina Triangle USGBC's Natural Talent Design Competition calls on those leaders to share their design ideas for projects that better their communities and raise the bar in green building and development. Participants will compete in a North Carolina-based sustainable design competition. The North Carolina Triangle Chapter of the USGBC, the Competition Host, will provide any state-wide awards as well as a stipend for the winning team to support travel and registration to Greenbuild 2012 (http://www.greenbuildexpo.org), USGBC's Annual Green Building Conference and Expo, to be held in San Francisco in November 2012. The 2012 NCT-USGBC Natural Talent Design Competition will address sustainability, green building and community engagement issues through the program's partner client, the Boys and Girls Clubs of Wake County. Judging will occur and awards will be given at a day-long event at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences in Raleigh, North Carolina, on Saturday, April 28, 2012.

Thursday, January 26th 5:30-7:30 pm Clancy & Theys Office 516 West Cabarrus Street Raleigh, NC 27603 Masonry design and construction is ancient and continues to evolve. It is important that the masonry industry and researchers more effectively measure and present masonry's sustainable building design qualities. Design professionals and owners now require facts upon which to base their material selection decisions. Currently for masonry they can only refer to data that is often out of date, incomparable, or anecdotal. Ideally, the research data would compare masonry to other construction materials, measured in a comparable manner. This would make it possible to understand this traditional construction system in relevant contemporary terms. More than 100 buildings at a state university campus in the Southeastern US are used as case studies regarding how various cladding materials have performed.
