The Architects’ Guide to Glass & Metal magazine announced that YKK AP in Austell, Ga., has signed on as a Diamond Sponsor for the upcoming Architects’ Forum™ 2013, taking place March 7 at the Hyatt Regency Long Island at Wind Watch Hotel & Golf Club.

As part of its sponsorship, the company will present one AIA-accredited program during the day-long event geared specifically for architects. Titled “Ensuring Compliance of Fenestration with Today’s Energy Codes and Green Standards,” the one-hour program will explore how to select envelope systems that comply with current codes and green standards. It will provide information on recent changes to energy codes and the new green standards; pre-qualifying thermal performance for a project; determining when to use performance results based on NFRC sizes and project specific sizes; and achieving sustainable performance with aluminum commercial fenestration

In addition to the presentations, Architects’ Forum™ 2013 will also provide attendees with a number of other educational and networking opportunities. These include free admission into the Glass Expo Northeast™ trade show, which takes place concurrently, as well as lunch, coffee breaks and informative tabletop displays provided by event sponsors.
