SUMMARY:Baltimore Architecture Madness
DESCRIPTION:Baltimore Architecture Foundation is celebrating AIA Baltimore’s 150th anniversary with a March Madness tournament of Baltimore buildings built between 1870 and 2021. Public voting will determine which buildings advance to each round of the tournament. \nCongratulations to Architecture Madness Champion:\nAmerican Visionary Art Museum  – Alex Castro\, Rebecca Swanston\, and Davis\, Bowen & Friedel (1995)\, Diane Cho\, Cho Benn Holback + Associates (2004)\nView Championship Voting Results \nVIEW THE ARCHITECTURE MADNESS BRACKET \n  \nVisit Our Championship Match-Up Page \n\nView Early Round Voting Results:\nSee Round of 64 voting results\nSee Round of 32 voting results\nSee Sweet 16 Match-Up Page!\nSee Sweet Sixteen Voting Results\nSee Quarterfinals Voting Results \n\nHow We Selected the Building Nominations \nBAF sought to include a diverse selection of buildings built over the course of AIA Baltimore’s history. 10 buildings were selected from each decade. AIA Baltimore and BAF committee leaders led the effort to select buildings using sources such as the AIA Baltimore Design Awards\, The Architecture of Baltimore: An Illustrated History\, A Guide to Baltimore Architecture\, and National Register listings. Public voting then determined which buildings were entered into the tournament. \nThe following rules were used: \n\nBuildings must be in the Baltimore region (AIA Baltimore zone)\n\nBaltimore City\, Baltimore County\, Howard County\, Harford County\, Carroll County\, Cecil County\n\n\nBuildings must be built within AIA Baltimore’s lifespan (1870-2021)\nBuildings must be extant\n\nFor the most part\, BAF avoided including single-family homes to protect the privacy of current homeowners. \nWhy Create an Architecture March Madness Tournament? \nThe tournament is intended to celebrate 150 years of architecture since the founding of AIA Baltimore in 1871. This is not a definitive ranking of the ‘best’ buildings in Baltimore. We want to see which buildings you love and learn why you love them.  BAF’s overall goal is to spread more awareness about Baltimore architecture.  As the tournament goes on we will be including articles about the buildings and from experts about the features of architecture that stand the test of time. \nPlease direct questions and comments to Nathan Dennies at ndennies@aiabalt.com.

SUMMARY:Using MEP Systems to Reduce Transmission Rates
DESCRIPTION:Join BEC-Baltimore & AIA Baltimore in discussing how MEP systems can help mitigate the spread of airborne pathogens.\n\n\nOver the past twelve months\, practitioners in design and construction fields have grappled with the realities of a global pandemic and its far-reaching impacts on our indoor environments. Acknowledging that COVID-19 is primarily spread as an airborne virus\, this discussion will review how MEP design can help mitigate those risks. We provide a base understanding of how viruses including COVID-19 are transmitted and review actionable items for reopening and long term strategies for pathogen control. \nWe will focus the discussion to assist participants in: \n\nUnderstanding the three primary transmission methods of COVID-19 & typical preventative measures\n\n\nUnderstanding infectious dose & viral load\n\n\nUnderstanding short term HVAC approaches to reduce transmission (including ventilation & filtration)\n\n\nUnderstanding long term solutions for pathogen control including air sanitization\n\n\nUnderstand other MEP design contributors to pathogen control\n\n\n\nRegister Here\n\n\nSpeaker: \n David Van der Vossen \nAs Senior Vice President\, David Van der Vossen brings a vast array of design experience to his projects. During his tenure with the company\, Dave’s role has evolved – from his entry level position as a drafter in 1993 to his current SVP role where he is responsible for overseeing company operations. In his corporate role\, Dave works closely with Zack to assist with corporate business functions and with individual office leadership to ensure implementation of quality control measures\, client service\, profitability and team training. His business and broad engineering background brings a unique skill set to the company\, and he upholds the firm’s commitment to community engagement through not only providing direct design support to many local non-profits\, but also by actively participating in local organizations such as the Greater Salisbury Committee\, Salisbury Environmental Task Force\, Boy Scouts of America and ACE Mentoring. Most recently\, Dave oversaw the firm’s COVID-19 research\, education and response\, providing free seminars to over 60 groups and 800 individuals on aerosol transmission of COVID-19 and how to reduce it using HVAC systems. He is currently focused on opening the firm’s newest office location in Wilmington\, NC.
