We are pleased to offer courses on a variety of topics, each tied to one of Oldcastle's product groups: masonry, hardscapes, decking, fencing and more. From specification support to site planning to strategies to optimize the health and wellness of your occupants and beyond, APG U sessions offer up knowledge you need to succeed – and the LU and HSW credits you need to stay current.
Check out the current block of webinars below. A number of previous Oldcastle APG University courses have also been recorded and are available within the
Oldcastle APG Continuing Education Portal for on-demand learning purposes.
Thursday, October 10, 1pm ET - More Than 100 Ways to Build Better
(1 LU | HSW)
A significant void exists between the academic world of building science and the practical world of construction. Through his long career in forensic engineering, Derek Hodgin P.E., brings those worlds together with an abundance of best practices that weren’t taught in school or required by a building code.
Join us as we discuss the risks involved with work performed to code-minimum requirements and construction practices that mitigate water intrusion, wood rot and mold – all in service to a safer, more durable built environment.
Thursday, November 14, 1pm ET - Design Strategies for Architectural Stone
(1 LU | HSW)
Stone masonry products are the answer to an ever-evolving design environment for their aesthetic flexibility as well as the health and safety benefits they offer to building occupants. This one-hour HSW program will explore how to effectively design masonry walls using legacy stone products, such as natural limestone, cast stone and architectural masonry stone, as well as calcium silicate and architectural pre-cast products.
You won’t want to miss this opportunity to brush up on design best practices to ensure you’re designing masonry walls that will stand beautifully for generations
