<strong>WASHINGTON, D.C., August 3, 2016</strong> – The American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) and the Cold-Formed Steel Engineers Institute (CFSEI) are joining the American Society of Civil Engineers, Committee of Cold-Formed Members; and the University of North Texas as co-sponsors of the 2016-2017 International Cold-Formed Steel Building Student Design Competition. Now in its sixth year, the competition was previously known as the International Student Competition on Cold-Formed Steel Design. The competition is now officially under way and will conclude on March 31, 2017. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; border-collapse: collapse; border-spacing: 0px; border: none; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 20px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“This year’s competition is different in many ways than those held in previous years,” said Maribeth Rizzuto, LEED AP – BD+C, managing director of the Cold-Formed Steel Engineers Institute. “Previously, the design problems involved cold-formed steel components. This year, the design problem is a three-story cold-formed steel condominium building, and we are challenging students to push the creative bounds of structural design with light cold-formed steel framing. We are extending the deadline for entries and are encouraging students to work as either individuals or teams. Upon request, we will also provide an engineering mentor from CFSEI for project support. With these changes, our goal is to provide an expanded experience for students to work on a specific project while interacting with other team members, as they would in the workplace.”</div>

The design problem is a three-story cold-formed steel condominium building located at 8601 Scholar Lane in Las Vegas, Nevada, 89128, USA. It has 26,912 sq. ft. (2,500 sq. meters) of usable floor space. The primary load-bearing and lateral structural system shall be cold-formed steel framing, designed to IBC 2012 and governing AISI specifications with load combinations taken from ASCE 7-10. </div>

Le gymnase du collège George Brown de Toronto avait désespérément besoin d’être modernisé. Construit
initialement dans les années 1970, le gymnase devait être rénové. « Tout l’équipement se trouvait dans
un petit espace dépourvu de lumière naturelle. Seuls les rats de gymnase s’en servaient », selon M. YewThong
Leong, architecte principal de SSG Architecture. « On nous a demandé d’ajouter une annexe au
gymnase. Les besoins du collège en matière d’activités récréatives ont changé. Ils voulaient notamment
un studio pour le yoga. »</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Une charpente en acier léger a été
choisie en raison de ses propriétés de
construction non combustibles, de son
poids léger et de sa capacité d’intégration
à la nouvelle structure. L’acier permet
de personnaliser facilement l’ensemble
de la charpente et des éléments afin de
s’harmoniser avec les écarts d’espacement
de la structure historique.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
L’ajout d’une annexe moderne à un bâtiment historique a
constitué l’un des défis de ce projet. « L’annexe d’un
immeuble historique se doit d’être construite de telle
sorte qu’il soit possible de la retirer, et l’acier est parfait
pour ce faire », indique M. Leong. « Le nouvel immeuble
est entièrement construit en acier. » </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Les impératifs du calendrier de construction
ont imposé l’érection de la superstructure
pendant l’automne et la saison hivernale.
Du fait de l’emploi d’une méthode de
construction à sec, l’installation hivernale
représentait une solution sûre. La
préfabrication des composants a permis de
poursuivre en toute sécurité les travaux de
construction, tandis que le bâtiment actuel
était utilisé par le personnel et les étudiants.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Il ajoute également que l’acier a été choisi pour sa solidité
et son poids relativement léger. « Tout l’acier est
découvert. Nous voulions que le design présente un
certain degré d’honnêteté. L’acier a été peinturé de
couleur blanche. Cela donne un effet de halo avec la
lumière externe, le bâtiment semble tout simplement
rayonner. » </div>

La construction de l’annexe a pris fin l’an dernier. Il
s’agissait de la troisième et dernière phase du plan
d’amélioration des installations sportives.
« L’acier n’a pas un aspect lourd comme le béton. Le
recours à l’acier donne un effet de légèreté à l’ensemble »,
selon M. Leong. « L’annexe est superbe. Elle offre
une vue incroyable et profite de beaucoup de lumière
naturelle. Ce bâtiment a été très bien reçu. » </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">L’ajout offre tout l’espace nécessaire
pour élargir les programmes existants
de musculation et d’activités
cardiovasculaires qui ont actuellement
cours au même étage dans un endroit
dépourvu de fenêtre du gymnase des
années 1970. Une fois les installations
existantes déplacées, l’espace a été
rénové pour en faire une nouvelle
salle de vélo et des studios pour les
classes d’exercice.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Le nouvel espace est beaucoup plus convivial et cela
incite beaucoup d’étudiants à s’entraîner au collège. « La
faculté a fait quelques changements. Finalement, l’annexe
sert de salle de musculation et compte de nombreux
appareils cardiovasculaires. Le studio de yoga figurait
mieux dans le bâtiment initial » explique M. Leong. «
L’annexe attire une autre clientèle. C’est une réussite et
nous en sommes bien heureux. »</div>

The gymnasium at George Brown College in Toronto was in desperate need of an upgrade. Originally
built in the 1970s, the gym was due for an overhaul. “All the exercise equipment was stuck in the same
small space with no natural light. The only people who used it were gym rats,” says Yew-Thong Leong,
Principal Architect with SSG Architecture. “We were asked to put an addition adjacent to the gym. The
college’s recreational needs had changed. They wanted a yoga studio, among other things.”<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Light steel framing was selected for its
noncombustible construction properties,
lightweight and its ability to integrating
with the new structure. Steel allowed for
easily customizing all the members and
elements to align with the in congruencies
of the historic structure’s differential grid
spacing.</span></div>
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
One of the challenges the project posed was the
need to add a modern addition to a historical
building. “When you’re building an addition to a
historical building, you have to do it in such a way
that it can be removed, and steel allows for that,”
Leong says. “The new building is entirely made of
steel.”<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: x-small;"><div style="text-align: center;">
The construction schedule dictated that the super structure would be erected during the fall and through the winter months. A dry construction method made winter installation a safe possibility. Prefabrication of components allowed for construction to continue safely while the existing building is occupied with staff and students.</div>
</span><br />
He adds that steel was also chosen for its strength
and relatively light weight. “We left all the steel
exposed. We wanted there to be a level of honesty
about the design. We painted the steel pure white. It
has a halo effect from the amount of light coming
in – it simply glows.”<br />

Construction of the addition was completed a year
ago. This latest addition was the third and final
phase of the Athletics Facility Enhancement Plan.
“Steel doesn’t look as heavy as concrete. The use of
steel added a lighter feel to the space,” says
Leong. “The addition is amazing. It has incredible
views and lots of natural light. It’s been very well
received.”<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">The addition provides space for the
purpose of expanding the programs for
the existing weight lifting and cardio
facility which is currently housed in
a window-less space within a 1970s
gymnasium addition on the same floor.
Once the existing facilities were vacated,
they were renovated into a new cycle
room and studios for movement classes.</span></div>
<br />
The new space is a lot friendlier, and it’s encouraged
more students to work out at the college, he says.
“The faculty bumped a few things around. In the
end, the addition became the weight-training room,
with a lot of cardio machines. The yoga studio
was better suited to the original building,” Leong
explains. “The addition has brought out a different
population. It’s quite well done, and we’re very
happy about it.”<br />

<br />
La Carbonear Academy, qui a la capacité d’accueillir 470 élèves de la maternelle à la 8e année, a ouvert
ses portes en septembre 2013. Même si elle venait tout juste d’être construite, un nombre d’élèves
supérieur aux attentes a obligé la province à dépenser 2 millions de dollars supplémentaires pour la
construction de quatre salles de cours de plus, laquelle a été achevée au début de l’année. Cette école
remplace l’école primaire Davis Elementary, vieille de 60 ans.<br />

L’utilisation de l’acier a permis à l’architecte d’ajouter un
élément visuel intéressant à l’aide de revêtement mural
aux couleurs primaires vives. « Nous avons utilisé
de l’acier, car nous étions soumis aux exigences du
propriétaire. Les principales préoccupations étaient la
durabilité, la résistance aux intempéries et l’entretien
minime », déclare l’architecte Greg Snow de Gibbons
Snow Architects Inc. « L’acier permet l’utilisation d’une
grande variété de profils et de couleurs. Nous avons
utilisé des couleurs vives et différentes textures pour
ajouter un élément intéressant. »<br />
<br />
Son emplacement présentait quelques défis pour l’équipe,
dit Snow, « Elle est construite dans le flanc d’une colline.
Si nous avions reculé davantage, l’excavation serait
devenue très coûteuse », explique-t-il. « C’est un long site
très étroit. Nous avons utilisé des blocs de couleur, ce qui
crée une rupture dans la façade et lui donne un élément
visuel intéressant. Pour certaines sections autour des
fenêtres, nous avons utilisé des profils ondulés ordinaires
pour créer une rupture dans la façade. »<br />

L’école mesure 137 m (450 pieds) de long, renfermant un
espace utilisable de 5 110 m2 (55 000 pi ca). Construite
à l’aide d’acier de construction et munie de murs en
maçonnerie et de revêtements muraux en acier galvanisé
prépeint, elle est faite pour durer. « C’est un monument
très visible. Il instaure un sens de permanence dans
la collectivité », déclare Snow. L’école a été construite
selon les normes les plus sévères en matière d’efficacité
et d’environnement, et l’architecte a pu tirer profit de
certains éléments verts de l’école de façon à engager les
élèves et à leur enseigner la réduction de consommation
d’énergie. Les personnes qui ont visité le complexe
ont été impressionnées par l’extérieur coloré, le
stationnement et les voies d’accès habilement conçus, les
salles de classe spacieuses et le gymnase d’une certaine
ampleur.<br />

« Nous avons incorporé un logiciel interactif lié aux
systèmes du bâtiment afin de permettre aux élèves
d’observer les systèmes mécaniques et électriques de
l’école en temps réel. Ils peuvent constater l’utilisation
d’énergie et la comparer à celle d’autres écoles », dit
Snow. « Certains professeurs s’intéressent beaucoup à
la possibilité de l’utiliser comme outil d’enseignement
de la réduction de consommation d’énergie. »
Les caractéristiques éco-énergétiques du bâtiment
comprennent l’éclairage à haute efficacité muni de
capteurs de lumière du jour, ainsi que le chauffage et le
refroidissement géothermiques.<br />

Un long panneau d’alliage de couleur jaune a été utilisé
pour l’auvent devant le bâtiment afin d’ajouter un
élément visuel intéressant supplémentaire et une
protection contre les intempéries. À l’intérieur de l’école,
la couleur jaune a encore une fois été utilisée pour les
escaliers en métal ondulé. « Le hall et l’entrée constituent
un véritable point central du bâtiment », déclare Snow. «
Nous avons utilisé certaines couleurs personnalisées. »<br />

<br />
The Carbonear Academy, which has the capacity for 470 students from Kindergarten to Grade 8, opened for classes in September 2013. Although just completed, a higher than expected number of students forced the Province to spend an additional $2 million on the construction of four additional classrooms which were completed early this year. The school replaces the 60-year-old Davis Elementary School.<br />

Using steel allowed the architect to add visual interest to the school with horizontal cladding in bright primary colours. “We used steel because we were driven by the owner’s requirements. The main concerns were durability, weather-ability and low maintenance,” says architect Greg Snow of Gibbons Snow Architects Inc. “With steel there are a wide variety of profiles and colours you can use. We used bright colours and different textures to add interest.”<br />

The school’s location posed a bit of a challenge for the crew, Snow says, “It is built into the side of a hill. If we had gone back any farther, the excavation would have become very expensive,” he explains. “It’s a very narrow, long site. We used blocks of colour, which breaks up the elevation and gives it a visual interest. For some sections around the windows, we used regular corrugated profiles to break up the elevation.”<br />

The building is 137m (450 ft.) long and has 5,110m2 (55,000 sq. ft.) of useable space inside. Constructed of structural steel, with pre-painted galvanized steel cladding and masonry walls, it was built to last. “It is a very visible landmark and it has a sense of permanence in the community,” says Snow. The school has been built to the highest possible efficiency and environmental standards and the architect was able to take advantage of some of the school’s green elements in a way that will engage students and teach them about energy consumption. Visitors touring the complex were very impressed by the colourful exterior, neatly designed access lanes and parking, the spacious classrooms and sizeable gymnasium.<br />

“We incorporated interactive computer software tied into the building’s systems so students can see the mechanical and electrical systems of the school in real time. They can see the energy usage and compare it to other schools.” Snow says. “Some of the teachers are quite interested in using it as a teaching tool for energy consumption.” The building’s energy conscious features include higher efficiency lights with daylight sensors and geo-exchange heating and cooling.<br />

A long yellow composite panel was used for the canopy in front of the building to add further visual interest and some weather protection. Inside the school, the yellow colour was again used for the corrugated metal stairs. “The lobby and entrance area are a real focal point for the building,” says Snow. “We used some custom colours.”</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Introduction</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Les colombages non porteurs en acier (souvent appelés « colombages de cloison
sèche ») sont utilisés dans toute l’industrie de la construction au Canada pour les
cloisons intérieures. Ces éléments ne sont pas « structuraux », car ils ne sont pas
conçus pour faire partie du système structural porteur de l’immeuble; toutefois, ils
doivent pouvoir soutenir certaines pressions de l’air internes et charges imposées
par l’utilisation et l’occupation prévues. De plus, les colombages non porteurs
peuvent faire partie intégrante d’un ensemble indice de résistance au feu.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Épaisseurs des matériaux </b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
L’épaisseur minimale des colombages non porteurs en acier est de 0,455 mm
(0,0179 po) pour l’acier de base. Cette épaisseur est définie dans la spécification
ASTM C645-99, Standard Specification for Nonstructural Steel Framing Members,
ainsi que dans le Code national du bâtiment du Canada 2010, partie 9. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Il n’est par rare de voir encore des devis utilisant le calibre 25 pour définir l’épaisseur
des colombages non porteurs en acier. Dans l’industrie de la construction, il y a
souvent confusion entre les calibres et l’épaisseur correspondante. L’industrie
abandonne l’utilise du système des calibres. Pour vous assurer que le matériau
fourni sur le chantier corresponde bien à celui que voulez (pour les produits
porteurs tout comme pour les produits non porteurs), précisez l’épaisseur minimale
en nombre décimal (p. ex.: 0,455 mm, 0,0179 po ou 18 mil). </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Les colombages non porteurs en acier sont également revêtus d’une couche
métallique de zinc (galvanisé) ou d’un alliage aluminum-zinc 55%. Ces revêtements
métalliques procurent la protection anticorrosion nécessaire et la durabilité en
service. L’épaisseur minimale des revêtements métalliques à chaud typiques est
données dans la table ci-dessous. <u>Il faut additionner cette épaisseur du revêtement
métallique à l’épaisseur de l’acier de base pour déterminer l’épaisseur de l’acier
livré.</u> Les revêtements métalliques sont également assujettis à des tolérances de
fabrication, tout comme l’acier de base. L’épaisseur réelle du revêtement métallique est donc généralement supérieure aux minimums listés dans la table. Il faut prendre
ce facteur en considération lorsqu’on tente de vérifier l’épaisseur de l’acier de base
d’un produit à revêtement métallique.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Codes du numérotation du produit </b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
L’industrie nord-américaine des colombages en acier adopte un code de
numérotation standard qui décrit la géométrie de la section. Il s’agit d’un code en
quatre parties qui identifie la dimension (largeur de la semelle et profondeur), type
de produit et épaisseur minimale. Le même code est utilisée pour identifier les
produits en unités impériales ou métriques SI. Ces codes de produit sont basés sur
les unités impériales et suivent le format illustré dans l’exemple suivant: </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
362S125-18 </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
où: </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
362 = profondeur de la section (pouces/100, p.ex. 3-5/8 po) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
S = code de section désignant un colombage ou une solive («T» pour </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
lisse, «U» pour «profilé en U», «F» pour «profilé de fourrure» et
«L» </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
pour «angle») </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
125 = largeur de la semelle (pouces/100, p.ex. 1-1/4po) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
18 = code d’épaisseur (en mils, p.ex. 0,018 po) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
L’industrie adoptera ce codage standard dans la documentation sur les produits,
où ces codes replaceront les codes distinctifs utilisés par chaque fournisseur, ou les
compléteront. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Conclusion </b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Les colombages non porteurs en acier sont un produit courant utilisé à grande
échelle dans la construction immobilière au Canada. Même s’ils sont considérés
comme des éléments non structuraux d’un immeuble, ils doivent tout de même
soutenir une certain charge et présenter un rendement satisfaisant. Les devis au
Canada exigent uniformément une <u>épaisseur minimale de l’acier de base</u> de 0,455
mm (0,0179 po) pour ces éléments.</div>

Krasnoïarsk est la troisième ville en importance de la Sibérie. La ville est située à l’est du Kazakhstan et au nord de la Mongolie, dans la partie centre-sud d’une région nichée sur les rives du fleuve Yenisei qui s’écoule en direction nord vers l’océan Arctique. Comme bon nombre de villes de Russie, ses habitants sont entichés de ce jeu somptueux qu’est le soccer. Et comme tous les partisans, ils veulent ce qu’il y a de mieux pour leur équipe. Pour cela, il faut de la pratique, beaucoup de pratique.<br />

C’est ici que sont entrés en scène le ministre des Sports
de la Russie et un entrepreneur général en construction
de bâtiments, Mezhregionalnaya Torgovaya Assotsiatsia
Ltd., (MTA). À l’image de leurs nouvelles patinoires de
hockey, les Russes voulaient avoir un stade de soccer
intérieur de dimension internationale offrant la meilleure
ligne de vision, sans qu’elle soit obstruée par des
colonnes de soutien. Une telle demande présentait deux
défis importants : construire avec des espaces vides d’une
dimension jamais vue et trouver un fournisseur
compétent, puisqu’aucun fournisseur russe ne pouvait
répondre à une telle demande. </div>

Behlen Industries LP, dont le siège social est situé à
Brandon, au Manitoba, est le principal fabricant de
systèmes de construction en acier au Canada. Après
avoir présenté l’offre retenue pour le nouveau stade,
Behlen a démontré une fois de plus son expérience
et son expertise en matière de réalisation de projets
internationaux d’une ampleur exceptionnelle et
inhabituelle. Il est également important de souligner que
Behlen a traité dès le début du projet avec MTA, qui était
chargé de l’érection de cette structure massive en Sibérie. </div>

Le gestionnaire de projet, M. Andreas Riffel, de Brandon,
qui parle russe couramment, a agi en qualité d’homme de
pointe pour Behlen. Selon M. Riffel, « La taille du projet
a constitué l’un des principaux défis. Premièrement,
nous n’avions jamais fabriqué de bâtiment sans cadre de
style convexe d’une telle ampleur, doté d’espaces vides
aussi vastes et, deuxièmement, nous devions gagner la
confiance des autorités locales afin de les convaincre que
c’était possible. Il s’agissait d’un projet unique pour nous.
Imaginez quelqu’un qui n’a jamais vu une telle structure,
difficile de croire que ça fonctionnerait! » Il convient
d’évoquer les essais et la contribution d’ArcelorMittal
Dofasco (AMD), qui est allée au-delà de
l’approvisionnement en acier. AMD a effectué des essais
de cisaillement du diaphragme sur des panneaux de
3,05 m à 7,62 m (10 pi à 25 pi) raccordés comme ils
le seraient sur le terrain, avec charge, afin de mesurer
le fléchissement, puis d’exécuter des calculs pour
déterminer la résistance au cisaillement du bâtiment.
Comme l’indique M. Riffel, « à la suite de ces essais, nous
étions convaincus qu’il était possible de construire ce
stade et qu’il serait en mesure de supporter le poids de
la neige. Ces essais ont également rassuré les autorités
locales. » </div>

Le stade mesure 120 m de longueur sur 115 m de largeur
(395 pi sur 377 pi). Il compte quatre zones commerciales
et administratives d’une empreinte de 12 m sur 35 m (40
pi x 115 pi). Le terrain de soccer mesure 120 m sur 80 m
(394 pi sur 262 pi), avec une hauteur de plafond libre de
23 m (75,5 pi). L’acier galvanisé Z275(G90) est partout :
panneaux latéraux de 1,925 mm (0,0758 po), panneaux de
mur d’extrémité de 1,31 mm (0,0516 po), toit de 2,38 mm
(0,0937 po) et au plafond, mélange de 2,38 mm (0,0937
po) et de 1,93 mm (0,0758 po). Les panneaux de toit et
de plafond laminés les plus imposants ont une dimension
d’environ 1 m sur 10 m (3,28 pi x 32,8 pi).</div>

Des premières négociations à la livraison
définitive, Behlen a consacré un an et demi
à ce projet, ce qui est impressionnant si
l’on tient compte du fait que la fabrication
elle-même et l’expédition se sont déroulées
sur une période de 4 mois et ont nécessité
63 conteneurs d’expédition. L’achèvement
global était prévu pour le mois d’août
2014. Au moment de mettre sous presse,
Behlen avait obtenu cinq autres contrats
de construction de bâtiments en acier en
Russie et avait ouvert un bureau à Moscou.</div>

Krasnoïarsk is the third largest city in Siberia. It is east of Kazakhstan and north of Mongolia, in the south-central area of the region nestled on the banks of the Yenisei River that flows northward to the Arctic Ocean. Like many Russian cities its inhabitants love the “beautiful game” of soccer. And, like all soccer fans, they want their team to be the best. And that takes practice. Lots of it. Big problem: from November to March there was no facility for training on a full-size field.<br />

Enter the Russian Ministry of Sport and a
general contractor for building construction,
Mezhregionalnaya Torgovaya Assotsiatsia Ltd.,
(MTA). As with their newer hockey arenas, the
Russians wanted an international-size indoor
soccer stadium with the best sight-lines possible,
without interference from support columns. This
involved two significant challenges, building with
unprecedented clear spans, and finding a qualified
supplier, given no Russian suppliers were capable. </div>

Behlen Industries LP, headquartered in Brandon,
Manitoba, is Canada’s largest manufacturer of steel
building systems. After submitting a successful bid
for the new stadium, Behlen has demonstrated
once again its experience and expertise in taking
over large and unusual international projects. It’s
also important to say that since the project started,
Behlen has been dealing with MTA who erected this
massive structure in Siberia. </div>

Behlen’s point man was Project Manager Andreas
Riffel, based in Brandon, who speaks fluent
Russian. He says, “The most challenging aspects
of the project related to its size. Firstly we’d never
fabricated a frameless convex-style building that big,
with such large clear spans and secondly because of
that we had to gain the trust of local authorities that
it was even possible. It was unique for us, imagine
for someone who never saw a structure like that, it’s
difficult to believe it’s going to work!” </div>

And that brings up the issue of testing and
ArcelorMittal Dofasco (AMD)’s contribution
besides supplying the steel itself. AMD conducted
diaphragm shear testing on 3.05m to 7.62m (10 ft.
to 25 ft.) panels connected as they would be in the
field, loading them, measuring the deflection and
then crunching the numbers to determine the shear
capacity of the building. As Riffel points out, “The
test results gave us the confidence that the stadium
could be built and it would be able to withstand
local snow loads, and we reassured local authorities
accordingly.” </div>

The project took Behlen a year-and-a-half from first
negotiations to final delivery. That becomes
impressive when you know the actual fabrication
and shipment occurred within a 4-month period
and required 63 shipping containers. Overall
completion was scheduled for August 2014. At
the time of going to press Behlen had obtained a
further five contracts for steel buildings in Russia
and opened an office in Moscow.</div>

Le centre communautaire de Thompson avait besoin d’un bon coup de pinceau. Le Collège universitaire du
Nord avait besoin d’un nouveau campus. La combinaison des deux projets permettrait de créer un lieu de
rencontre communautaire polyvalent. Et c’est justement la vision de Doug Corbett d’Architecture49 Inc.
« L’idée générale était de créer à Thompson un lieu où les gens pourraient se rassembler et profiter
d’activités de loisir », déclare-t-il. « Le nouveau bâtiment serait un lieu d’apprentissage à la fois traditionnel
et innovant. »</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
« Le projet vise à tendre la main à ceux qui ne se sont
jamais sentis à l’aise dans un environnement universitaire
», ajoute-t-il. Corbett travaille depuis dix ans à Thompson
et admet qu’il était nécessaire de bâtir un nouveau centreville
où les habitants se rassembleraient spontanément.
Le projet a été difficile à défendre au premier abord. «
Au début, beaucoup de négativité entourait le projet.
Personne n’y croyait vraiment. Et tout le monde pensait
qu’il s’agissait simplement d’une autre promesse politique.
Puis, lorsque les gens ont compris que le projet allait
réellement voir le jour, ils s’attendaient à un bâtiment
impersonnel », poursuit-il.<br />

Le nouveau bâtiment du campus a une superficie de
8 155 m2
(87 780 pi2
). Il a été conçu et construit en
parallèle des rénovations du Centre communautaire
régional de Thompson. Les deux bâtiments sont reliés et
partagent des équipements tels que des restaurants, un
gymnase, une garderie et une bibliothèque. Entièrement
revêtu d’acier galvanisé Z275 (G90) non peint, le club
de curling est également relié au Centre communautaire
régional de Thompson. Le bâtiment du campus se
compose de quatre étages et possède un lien visuel et
spirituel avec la rivière Burntwood, située au nord du site.<br />

<br />
« Nous voulions créer une entrée solennelle dans les deux
bâtiments. Les membres des Premières nations
entretiennent des liens très forts avec la rivière et nous
voulions que ce lien se reflète dans les bâtiments »,
déclare Corbett, en ajoutant que plus de 2 000 personnes
se sont rendues à l’inauguration. « C’est un bâtiment qui
attire le regard. Les gens en sont très fiers. Ils aiment s’en
vanter. »<br />

<br />
Pour sa souplesse et sa résistance, l’acier a tout
naturellement été retenu pour le projet. La superstructure,
le toit, les panneaux à joint debout et la charpente des
bâtiments sont en acier.<br />
<br />
« Une grande partie des matériaux est exposée. L’acier a
été l’élément principal de notre processus de conception.
Nous voulions avoir cet aspect galvanisé naturel et brut
», déclare Corbett. « L’un des avantages de l’acier dans
un climat nordique est qu’il est possible de l’utiliser à
tout moment dans l’année. L’acier est idéal pour ce type
de climat et la fonction des bâtiments. Si un panneau est
endommagé, il est facile de l’enlever et de le remplacer. »<br />

« L’architecture a une responsabilité sociale. Notre
objectif était que la communauté se reflète dans cette
architecture », déclare Corbett. « Les jeunes Autochtones
représentent la plus forte croissance démographique
au Canada, mais le manque d’accès à une éducation de
qualité est l’un des principaux problèmes auxquels font
face les membres des Premières nations. Le nouveau
campus du Collège universitaire du Nord est un endroit
convivial, qui inspire et unit la communauté, en faisant en
sorte que les étudiants des Premières nations s’y sentent
accueillis. »<br />

<b>Project: University College of the North &
Thompson Regional Community Centre</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Location: Thompson, Manitoba</b></div>
<br />
The community centre in Thompson, Manitoba needed a facelift. The town’s University College of the
North needed a new campus. Combining the two projects would create a multipurpose community
meeting place. And that’s just what Doug Corbett of Architecture49 Inc. intended. “The overall vision
was to create a hub in Thompson where people could congregate and enjoy recreational activities,” he
says. “The new building would be a place for traditional and advanced learning.”<br />
<br />
He added, “It would also attempt to reach out to
those who have not previously felt welcome in a
university college environment.” Corbett had spent
ten years working in Thompson and recognized
the need for a new city centre where people would
naturally gather. The project was a tough sell at first.
“There was a lot of negativity in the beginning. No
one believed it would get built. They thought it was
just another political promise. And then, once they
realized it was going to happen, they were expecting
to get a vanilla box,” he explains.<br />
<br />

<br />
The new campus building has a floor area of
8,155 m2
(87,780 sq. ft.). It was designed and built
in conjunction with renovations to the existing
Thompson Regional Community Centre. The two
buildings are connected, sharing amenities such as
food services, a gymnasium, day care and a library.
Also connected to the TRCC is the curling club
which is clad with unpainted Z275 (G90) galvanized
steel. The campus building is a four-storey structure
with a visual and spiritual connection to the
Burntwood River on the north side of the site.<br />
<br />

<br />
“What we intended to do was make a ceremonial
entrance to both buildings. The First Nations people
have very strong connections to the river, so we
wanted the buildings to have this connection as
well,” says Corbett, adding that over 2,000 people
came to the grand opening. “It’s a striking-looking
building. The community is very proud of it. They
tend to show it off quite a bit.”
The flexibility and durability of steel made it a
natural fit for the project. The super structure,
roof, standing-seam paneling, and the studs of the
buildings are steel.<br />

<br />
“We left a lot of the materials exposed. Steel was the
main part of our design process. We wanted a natural
galvanized look. The design concept was raw,”
Corbett says. “One of the main advantages of using
steel in a Northern climate is that you can erect it at
any time of year. Steel is durable for the buildings’
purpose and climate. If a panel gets
damaged, you can take it off and replace it pretty
easily.”<br />

“Architecture has a social responsibility. Our intent
was to express the community’s values through
architecture,” says Corbett. “Aboriginal youth are
the fastest-growing demographic in Canada, but the
lack of access to good education is a major problem
facing First Nations people. The new UCN campus
is an inviting destination that inspires and connects
the community, and makes the First Nation students
feel welcome.”<br />

and fire protection requirements for buildings constructed across Canada. These requirements
prescribe the minimum levels of occupant safety to be achieved.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Steel construction has a long history of implementing standards and conducting tests to
meet these codes. The latest series of tests have produced new fire-resistance ratings for floor
assemblies using cold formed c-section joists, suitable for constructing houses and small
commercial and industrial buildings. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Steel construction has sometimes been unjustly perceived as offering reduced fire safety.
Testing conducted by the National Research Council of Canada (NRC) - Institute for Research
in Construction (IRC) in Ottawa, provides an indisputable third party endorsement that cold-formed
steel framed floor assemblies can meet and exceed the building code requirements,
and in fact out-perform the more traditional framing materials. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Testing Program </b></div>
<div>
The fire testing conducted by NRC/IRC was part of a three year joint government and
industry program. The project participants included representatives from the steel, wood and
concrete industries, gypsum board and insulation manufacturers, home builders and related
government agencies. Thirty-two fire tests were conducted on full scale floor assemblies
framed using dimensional lumber, wood-I joists, concrete and cold-formed steel joists. Testing
was done in accordance with fire endurance testing standards CAN/ULC-S101-M89 and ASTM
E119. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The time temperature curve that is specified in the CAN/ULC and ASTM standards was adhered
to in all tests. The test standards also called for the floors to be loaded to 100% of strength. This
was the case for all the steel framed floors and some of the wood and wood-I floors. </div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
<b>Results</b> </div>
<div>
In the following table, the test results show that the steel framed floors achieve a higher fire
resistance than either of the wooden counterparts. For the same floor assembly construction
(see Figure 1), and switching only the floor joists, the cold-formed steel joists achieved a fire
resistance of 74 minutes while the dimensional wood joist achieved a rating of 69 minutes
under the same loading conditions. The wood-I framed floors reached 72 minutes and the fire
resistance was found to depend on the type of wood-I joist used. The effect of imposed test
load was found to be significant. For the solid wood joist increasing the load from 75-100%
decreased the fire resistance by 14%. The failure mode for all the floors in this comparison was
structural. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The data, published by the NRC/IRC in an
internal report (IRC-IR-764), will form the
basis for fire resistance ratings for floor
assemblies to be listed in the NBCC. The
tests outlined in the following table are
baseline tests from which the various
effects of insulation and resilient channel
can be extrapolated. The data will
eventually enable derivation of fire resistance ratings for unlisted assemblies according to the component method found
in Appendix D of the NBCC. The steel industry, through the Canadian Sheet Steel
Building Institute, has already developed a large series of non-loadbearing cold-formed
steel framed wall assemblies that achieve the required fire-resistance and
acoustic ratings and these are listed in the NBCC Part 9- Table A-9.10.3.1.A.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Figure 1: Système de bâtiment en acier de vente au détail</b></div>
<br />
Le Code national de l’énergie pour les bâtiments (CNEB) a été publié à l’automne de 2011. Il s’agit d’un modèle de code national qui peut être adopté par les provinces et les territoires dans la mesure où il répond à leurs besoins. À l’heure actuelle, cinq provinces ont adopté des règlements sur la conservation de l’énergie. Le CNEB s’applique à la construction de nouveaux édifices qui sont tenus de respecter les dispositions de la Section 3 du Code national du bâtiment du Canada ou du Code du bâtiment provincial applicable.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Il est possible de rendre la conception des immeubles conforme au CNEB 2011 de quatre façons : </div>
<div>
<ol>
<li>La méthode normative (section 3.2) par laquelle les assemblages et les composants doivent satisfaire aux exigences minimales de rendement prescrites. </li>
<li>La méthode de remplacement simple (sous-section 3.3.3) par laquelle certains ensembles ou composants peuvent ne pas satisfaire aux exigences de rendement prescrites, tandis que d’autres ensembles ou composants dépassent les exigences de rendement prescrites, de façon telle que le rendement global de l’immeuble ne consommera pas plus d’énergie. </li>
<li>La méthode de remplacement détaillée (sous-section 3.3.4) par laquelle un modèle informatisé est utilisé pour établir une cible énergétique de référence pour l’enveloppe du bâtiment. Certains composants sont approuvés pour un rendement moins écoénergétiques à la condition qu’il puisse être démontré que l’enveloppe du bâtiment ne transférera pas plus d’énergie que la quantité indiquée par la cible énergétique de l’enveloppe du bâtiment. </li>
<li>La méthode du rendement (section 3.4) selon laquelle la méthode de remplacement est étendue pour inclure l’équipement à l’intérieur de l’immeuble (c’est-à-dire les ventilateurs, les appareils électroménagers, les ascenseurs, etc.) et un modèle informatisé sont utilisés pour s’assurer que assemblages de construction, les composants et l’équipement en agrégat ne consommeront pas plus d’énergie que la quantité indiquée par la cible énergétique de l’enveloppe du bâtiment.</li>
</ol>
<h4>
La méthode normative permet une transmission thermique globale maximale pour les murs, le toit,
les portes et les fenêtres du bâtiment. L’avantage de la méthode normative c’est qu’elle est très facile
à appliquer; toutefois, elle impose parfois l’obligation de satisfaire aux objectifs du code de l’énergie
relativement à l’enveloppe du bâtiment. Cela peut résulter en une conception trop poussée de l’isolant
des murs et du toit. Avec un peu plus d’efforts, une solution plus rentable pourrait être obtenue en
appliquant les autres options du CNEB : la méthode de remplacement simple ou la méthode du
rendement. </h4>
</div>
<div>
<b><br /></b>
<b>Exemple de la méthode de remplacement simple </b></div>
<div>
La méthode de remplacement simple démontre que la somme des aires des ensembles verticaux (ou
horizontaux) de l’enveloppe du bâtiment multipliée par leur transmission thermique globale ne dépasse
pas celle des assemblages de construction correspondants du bâtiment de référence. Le bâtiment de
référence utilisé pour la méthode de remplacement simple est le même que l’on utilise pour la méthode
normative. Si certains composants sont plus éco-énergétiques que ceux préconisés dans la méthode
normative, il est permis de prendre en compte ce gain de rendement dans le calcul du remplacement. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Le choix de la méthode de remplacement simple peut présenter un avantage économique considérable
pour les murs en tôles d’acier isolées et les structures de toit. Les données indiquées dans le
Tableau 1 résument les calculs effectués pour trois villes au Canada avec deux configurations différentes
de construction qui seraient semblables à l’immeuble à commerces de détail illustré à la figure 1. Ces
calculs sont pour la surface des murs, mais un processus similaire peut être utilisé pour le toit. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Les étapes pour utiliser la méthode de remplacement simple sont les suivantes :<br />
<div>
<ul>
<li>La ligne 1 énumère les degrés-jours de chauffage (DJC) qui proviennent des données climatiques pour l’emplacement spécifique. Les données climatiques indiquées à l’Annexe C du Code national du bâtiment du Canada peuvent être utilisées à moins que l’autorité locale ne requière d’autres valeurs. Le CNBC 2010 a été utilisé dans cet exemple. </li>
<li>Les facteurs U maximums de la ligne 2 pour les murs proviennent du Tableau 3.2.3.1 du CNEB et dépendent des DJC. </li>
<li>Les facteurs U maximums de la ligne 3 pour la fenestration proviennent du Tableau 3.2.2.3 du CNEB. Remarque : les facteurs U maximums pour les portes sont les mêmes que pour la fenestration. Ces valeurs dépendent également du DJC.</li>
<li>Le rapport de l’aire maximale totale acceptable de la fenestration et des portes verticales avec l’aire
de mur brute (RFPM) est déterminé conformément à l’article 3.2.1.4. Pour des DJC inférieurs à 4000,
le RFPM maximal = 40 %. Pour des DJC entre 4000 et 7000, le RFPM maximal = (2 000 - 0,2 x
DJC)/3000. Pour des DJC de plus de 7000, le RFPM minimal = 20 %.</li>
<li>En effectuant le calcul de remplacement simple de l’article 3.3.3.2, le facteur U maximal pour le
bâtiment de référence du CNEB se calcule comme suit et illustré à la ligne 5 :
Max U (bât. réf.) = (1 - Max_RFPM)(Max Umur) + (MAX_RFPM)(max UFen) </li>
<li>Le RFPM à la ligne 6 est le rapport pour le bâtiment proposé. Dans cet exemple deux rapports sont
sélectionnés : 8 % et 20 % </li>
<li>La valeur Max U (mur) à la ligne 7 est calculée comme suit :
Max U (mur) = [(Max U (bât. réf.) - (RFPM)(Max Ufen)]/ (1 - RFPM) </li>
<li>Les valeurs R indiquées aux lignes 8 et 9 sont des conversions du facteur U de la ligne 7. </li>
<li>Les valeurs R indiquées à la ligne 10 sont tirées du Tableau 3.2.2.2 pour le CNEB et elles
représentent les exigences normatives pour les murs opaques du bâtiment. </li>
</ul>
Les avantages de la méthode de remplacement simple sont démontrés dans la comparaison des lignes
9 et 10 du Tableau 1. Il convient de noter que les valeurs R minimales admissibles indiquées à la ligne 9
sont bien en deçà des valeurs R communément appliquées dans les ensembles muraux en tôles d’acier
isolées.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>La méthode du rendement </b></div>
<div>
La méthode du rendement fait appel à la modélisation énergétique pour comparer la consommation
d’énergie annuelle d’une conception proposée par rapport à celle d’un bâtiment « de référence », qui
possède la même taille et la même forme que celles de la conception proposée, mais qui est peu
compatible avec le code de l’énergie dans tous les autres aspects. La méthode du rendement permet
de rendre un projet conforme au code de l’énergie par le remplacement de certains systèmes moins
performants, comme l’enveloppe de l’immeuble, par des systèmes plus performants comme de
l’équipement mécanique ou un éclairage plus efficace. L’objectif de la méthode du rendement est de
permettre l’adaptabilité à une plus grande flexibilité en matière de conception. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
La société Morrison-Hershfield a été mandatée par l’ICTAB pour entreprendre la modélisation d’un
système de bâtiment en acier à commerces de détail semblable à celui illustré à la figure 1. Le modèle
énergétique a été développé à l’aide du programme EnergyPlus v8.4 et il a pris en compte les variables
suivantes : </div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Trois zones climatiques (4, 6 et 7A) </li>
<li>Deux systèmes de CVCA </li>
<li>Économies d’éclairage : De 0 à 45 % de la base de référence du CNEB. </li>
<li>Valeurs de vitrage : U-0,5 à U-0,25 </li>
<li>Valeurs R des murs et du toit : R-10 à R-40 </li>
<li>RFPM de 8 % et 20 % </li>
<li>Facteur F de la dalle : R-10 à R-7,5 </li>
</ul>
Compte tenu du nombre de variables, un total de 20 736 différentes options ont été analysées
représentant différentes combinaisons. Les résultats ont été présentés de façon graphiquement similaire
au résultat illustré à la figure 2. Ces courbes illustrent diverses options qui seraient conformes aux
exigences du code énergétique. Par exemple, le fait de comparer la ligne rouge avec la ligne jaune
indique la manière dont le code peut être respecté avec des murs à R15 et R20 respectivement. Des
courbes similaires peuvent être générées en fonction d’autres variables. Le rapport de Morrison-Hershfield
est disponible sur le site Web de l’ICTAB à http://cssbi.ca/fr/produits/systemes-de-batimenten-acier.
La principale conclusion de cette étude a été de faire la démonstration qu’il existe une grande
variété d’options pour répondre aux exigences du code de l’énergie, et que la solution la plus rentable
n’est pas simplement d’ajouter plus d’isolant dans les murs et dans la structure de toit. </div>

<br />
The National Energy Code for Buildings (NECB) was published in the fall of 2011. It is a National Model Code that can be adopted by the Provinces and Territories to the extent it meets their needs. At the present time five provinces have adopted some energy conservation regulations. The NECB applies to the construction of new buildings that are required to meet the provisions of Part 3 of the National Building Code of Canada, or the applicable Provincial Building Code.<br />

There are four paths through which building designs may comply with NECB 2011: </div>
<div>
<ol>
<li>The Prescriptive Path (Section 3.2) in which assemblies and components must meet minimum prescribed performance requirements.</li>
<li>The Simple Trade-off Path (Sub-Section 3.3.3) in which certain assemblies or components may not meet the prescribed performance requirements, while other assemblies or components exceed the prescribed performance requirements, such that the overall performance of the building will not use more energy. </li>
<li>The Detailed Trade-off Path (Sub-Section 3.3.4) in which a computer model is used to establish a reference building envelope energy target. Some components are permitted to be less energy efficient provided it can be demonstrated the building envelope will not transfer more energy than the building envelope energy target. </li>
<li>The Performance Path (Section 3.4) in which the Trade-Off methodology is extended to include equipment inside the building, (i.e. fans, appliances, elevators, etc.) and a computer model is used to determine that the building assemblies, components and equipment in aggregate, will not use more energy than the reference building envelope energy target.</li>
</ol>
<h4>
The Prescriptive Path provides maximum overall thermal transmittance for the building walls, roof, fenestration and doors. The advantage of the Prescriptive Path is that it is very easy to use; however, it often places the full burden for meeting the energy code targets on the building envelope. This can result in the insulated wall and roof assemblies being over-designed. With a little additional work a more cost-efficient solution can be obtained by using the other NECB options; the Simple Trade-off Path or the Performance Path. </h4>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Example of the Simple Trade-Off Path</b> </div>
<div>
The Simple Trade-off Path demonstrates that the sum of the areas of vertical (or horizontal) assemblies of the building envelope multiplied by their respective overall thermal transmittance is not more than the corresponding assemblies in the reference building. The reference building for the Simple Tradeoff Path is the same building used with the Prescriptive Path. If certain components are more energy efficient than those prescribed in the Prescriptive Path, the trade-off calculation is permitted to take this increased performance into account. Taking advantage of the Simple Trade-off Path can provide a significant cost advantage for insulated sheet steel wall and roof assemblies. The data given in Table 1 summarizes the calculations for three cities in Canada with two different building configurations that would be similar to the retail building shown in Figure 1. These calculations are for the wall area, but a similar process can be used for the roof. </div>

<br />
The steps for using the simple trade-off method are as follows:<br />
<div>
<ul>
<li>Line 1 lists the Heating Degree Days (HDD) that comes from the climatic data for the specific location. The climatic data in Appendix C of the National Building Code of Canada can be used unless the local jurisdiction requires other values. NBCC 2010 has been used in this example. </li>
<li>The maximum U-factors in Line 2 for the walls come from Table 3.2.3.1 in NECB and depend on the HDD. </li>
<li>The maximum U-factors in Line 3 for the fenestration come from Table 3.2.2.3 in NECB. Note that the maximum U-factors for doors are the same as for the fenestration. These values also depend on the HDD. </li>
<li>The maximum allowable total vertical fenestration and door area to gross wall area ratio (FDWR) is determined in accordance with Article 3.2.1.4. For HDD less than 4000, the maximum FDWR = 40%. For HDD between 4000 and 7000, FDWR = (2000-0.2xHDD)/3000. For HDD over 7000, the minimum FDWR = 20%. </li>
<li>Using the simple trade-off calculation from Article 3.3.3.2, the maximum U-factor for the NECB reference building is calculated as follows and given in Line 5: Max U (ref. bldg.) = (1-Max_FDWR)(Max Uwall) + (Max_FDWR)(Max UFen) </li>
<li>The FDWR in Line 6 is the ratio for the proposed building. In this example two ratios are selected: 8% and 20%. </li>
<li>The Max U (Wall) given in Line 7 is calculated as follows: Max U (Wall) = [(Max U (ref. bldg.)- (FDWR)(Max Ufen)]/ (1-FDWR) </li>
<li>The R-values given in Lines 8 and 9 are conversions for the U-factor from Line 7. </li>
<li>The R-values given in Line 10 are taken from Table 3.2.2.2 for the NECB and are the prescriptive requirements for opaque building walls. </li>
</ul>
The benefits of the Simple Trade-off Path are demonstrated in the comparison of Lines 9 and 10 in Table 1. It is worth noting that the minimum allowable R-values shown in Line 9 are well below the R-values commonly used in insulated sheet steel wall assemblies.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<b>The Performance Path</b><br />
<div>
The Performance Path uses the energy modeling to compare the annual energy use of a proposed design against that of a “baseline” building, which has the same size and shape as the proposed design, but is minimally compliant with the energy code in all other aspects. The Performance Path allows for a project to be complaint with the energy code by trading off lower performing systems, such as the building envelop, with higher performing systems, such as higher efficiency mechanical equipment or lighting. The goal of the Performance Path is to allow compliance with greater design flexibility. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The CSSBI commissioned Morrison-Hershfield to undertake Performance Path modeling of a retail steel building system similar to the one shown in Figure 1. The energy model was developed using EnergyPlus v8.4 and considered the following variables: </div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Three climate zones (4, 6 and 7A) </li>
<li>Two HVAC systems </li>
<li>Lighting savings: 0% to 45% of NECB baseline </li>
<li>Glazing values: U-0.5 to U-0.25 </li>
<li>Wall and roof R-values: R-10 to R-40 </li>
<li>FDWR of 8% and 20% </li>
<li>Slab F-Factor: R-10 to R-7.5 </li>
</ul>
Given the number of variables, a total of 20,736 different options were analyzed representing different combinations. The results were presented graphically similar to the output shown in Figure 2. These curves illustrate various options that would comply with the energy code. For example, comparing the red line to the yellow line shows how the code can be met with an R15 and R20 wall respectively. Similar curves can be generated based on other variables. The report from Morrison-Hershfield is available on the CSSBI web site at www.cssbi.ca/products/steel-building-systems. The principal conclusion from this study was the demonstration that there are a wide variety of options for meeting the energy code requirements, and the most cost-effective solution is not to simply add more insulation in the wall and roof assemblies.</div>

<b>CAMBRIDGE, ON</b> - The Canadian Sheet Steel Building Institute (CSSBI) released the first industry-wide Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for Roll Formed Steel Panels manufactured in Canada. The EPD quantifies the “cradle-to-gate” with options. Therefore, the life cycle stages taken into account include raw materials supply, transportation, the North American manufacturing of hot dip galvanized coils, paint coil coating, panel roll forming and end of life recycling. Based on a peer-reviewed life cycle assessment (LCA), this EPD is a transparent tool that can help achieve credits required for building certification within LEED® v4 and other green building rating programs.<br />
<br />
This is the first industry-wide assessment of the life cycle environmental impacts of roll formed steel panels. The panels are roll formed from Galvanized (100% zinc) or Galvalume (55% aluminum, 45% zinc) coated steel that may be painted using a continuous coil coating process. A variety of profiles are available for steel roofing, decking and cladding applications. Roll formed panels may be used in residential, agricultural, industrial, commercial and institutional building construction.<br />
<br />
The EPD is available for download at <a href="http://www.cssbi.ca/resources">http://www.cssbi.ca/resources</a><br />
<br />
As an association, the CSSBI and its members recognize that sustainable construction is an important and essential part of our world’s long-term ecological and economical prosperity. This EPD and other research on the topic of sustainability demonstrates that roll formed steel panels for building applications can play a significant role in any sustainable project. <br />
<br />
The CSSBI is Canada’s foremost authority on sheet steel, its products, and its many applications. The CSSBI is an industry association responsible for the development and dissemination of industry standards. A source for technical information and resources, the CSSBI provides expert guidance to the general public and sheet steel manufacturers alike.

<b>Baker Lake, Nunavut</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
The geographic centre of Canada, Baker Lake, is the only inland Inuit community in Canada, with access by water to Hudson Bay through Chester eld Inlet. The concept for the new 4,580m2 (49,300 sq. ft) school, occupied since August 2004, ‘Broad Horizons’, relates to the school’s location adjacent to Baker Lake, as well as the ideals of the educational process.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXM1ucnu3cXXeue8ivbIeIIXMI6OYRfuw6sHmmgmEff4P9Z87_0p2JfHuTG1esUp3HmPM36W95MaIWwEcVtj_H868-8kQWPr-QqgfmCsHInhCgzmvtTjebD7IdPlcWFzhWeX6Up1Seexk/s1600/CS-17-05-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="314" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXM1ucnu3cXXeue8ivbIeIIXMI6OYRfuw6sHmmgmEff4P9Z87_0p2JfHuTG1esUp3HmPM36W95MaIWwEcVtj_H868-8kQWPr-QqgfmCsHInhCgzmvtTjebD7IdPlcWFzhWeX6Up1Seexk/s320/CS-17-05-2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
The gentle arching plan of the school takes advantage of the school’s location central to the community overlooking Baker Lake. A central triangular shaped atrium punctuated by a central stair and bridge, expands outward toward the lake in both plan and section.The school is designed to function both as a school and as a community library. After hours both the library and gymnasium can be accessed directly from the entrance vestibule without entering the rest of the building. The foundation is built on141mm (5-1/2”) diameter rock socketed piles elevating the school over a sloped site and allowing the community area snow melt to drain below. Access is provided by a series of galvanized steel stairs and ramps.<br />

<b>Good Building Practice Guidelines </b><br />
The Nunavut Government has prepared guidelines for good building practice for northern facilities to assist designers with reducing problems and eliminating past mistakes. Building overhangs are discouraged and special attention is encouraged regarding mechanical air intakes and exhausts regarding ice build-up and infiltration of fine blowing snow. The new school reflects these guidelines.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKGZft3aaGNz6OE5oFkFjUegEBZ3lM4NJR4ADa8RVrWs7NohTnx5dG2r-g4uoiibKcrAwccwItG3ZGZbATzrQVnHGqjpu4oPb0mWjqP9-eRhScVKDva31lU4pVQnUZVupXWQXiNCfkAxg/s1600/CS-17-05-5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKGZft3aaGNz6OE5oFkFjUegEBZ3lM4NJR4ADa8RVrWs7NohTnx5dG2r-g4uoiibKcrAwccwItG3ZGZbATzrQVnHGqjpu4oPb0mWjqP9-eRhScVKDva31lU4pVQnUZVupXWQXiNCfkAxg/s320/CS-17-05-5.jpg" width="249" /></a></div>
Massing is straight forward without overhangs. The envelope design is simple, sheathing to the walls, soffit and roof is covered in a continuous air-vapour barrier with semi-rigid non-combustible insulation and prefinished steel on girts and clips on top. Outside field painting to wood or metal does not last in this dry harsh climate. To reduce maintenance and achieve a long-lasting finish, Architects Smith Carter of Winnipeg selected prefinished steel for exterior walls, soffit and roof and galvanized steel for exterior ramps, handrails and canopy extensions.<br />

Elevations are enlivened by a variety of prefinished steel profiles, colours and finishes. The majority of the facade is clad in 7/8” corrugated Z275 galvanized steel panels in 0.66mm and 0.81mm (0.026” and 0.032”) HMP Series Regent Grey QC6082, 0.81mm (0.032”) 10000 Series, Twilight Blue QC3644 and 0.81mm (0.032”) Metallic Series Bright Silver QC2624. Flat prefinished steel panels are also used to provide a contrasting texture at window areas. Primrose Yellow QC3729 is used between windows, with Silver.<br />

<br />
Steel shipping containers have been used as the basis for modular homes around the world for many decades and finally one is scheduled to be constructed in Hamilton, Ontario this coming spring.<br />
<br />
Jason Halter, owner of <a href="http://www.wonderinc.com/" target="_blank">Wonder Inc.</a>, a modular housing company will be breaking ground when the ground thaws in April.<br />
<br />
From Halter,<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
In a way, all architecture is temporary and the shipping container is sort of this icon of being temporary," Halter says. "Here today and moved around the world all over the place. I like that place, yet at the same time you hope something you made still looks good in 10 years. That's the challenge for any architect or designer.</blockquote>

From the article, </div>
<blockquote>
Under LEED for New Construction and Major Renovations (v4), there are five MR credits available for many steel products, for a total possible 13 LEED points:<br />
<ul>
<li>Building life-cycle impact reduction (up to five points) </li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<ul>
<li>Building product disclosure and optimization — environmental product declarations (up to two points) </li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<ul>
<li>Building product disclosure and optimization — sourcing of raw materials (up to two points) </li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<ul>
<li>Building product disclosure and optimization — material ingredients (up to two points) </li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<ul>
<li>Construction and demolition waste management (up to two points).</li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
The CSSBI is in the process of finalizing its industry average Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for steel roofing, cladding and decking products and it will be available early 2016.<br />
<br />
Mark Thimons, vice-president of the Steel Recycling Institute also mentions in the article that steel can play a role in credits relating to recycled content and urban heat-island effect.<br />

<br />
The <a href="http://www.cfsei.org/student-competition-2015-winners" target="_blank">Cold-Formed Steel Engineers Institute</a> recently announced the winners for their 2015 International Student Competition on Cold-Formed Steel Design and second place was awarded to Taylor Porter from the University of Waterloo.<br />
<br />
The CSSBI has a long-standing relationship with the University of Waterloo so we are thrilled that one of its students has done so well in this incredibly competitive competition. With a total of 34 entries from eight universities in Brazil, Canada, China, India, Iran, Mexico and the United States, competition was steep and it seems that <a href="http://www.cfsei.org/student-competition-2015-winners" target="_blank">2 other University of Waterloo students </a>also managed to place in the top 10.<br />
<br />
Congratulations to Taylor Porter and all of the other winners! <a href="http://www.cfsei.org/student-competition-2015-winners" target="_blank">Check out the winning designs here.</a>
