Air Sealing Guides for Multifamily Masonry, Steel & Wood Construction

In a DOE-sponsored study, SWA uncovered why one VRF system used six times less electricity per square foot than another across two similar high-rise apartment buildings in New York City.

For the MassCEC and BE+ Embodied Carbon Reduction Challenge, SWA optimized structural design and reduced reliance on concrete and steel for Building 7 at Northland Newton Development in Newton, MA.

SWA has supported the Building Innovation Hub since its inception in 2019, and we continue to develop resources and share expertise to help break down local BEPS and net zero mandates and further building electrification.
