Researcher Isaac Rudnicki successfully defended his Master of Applied Science (M.A.Sc) thesis at Carleton University. His work in in Building Performance and Simulation, "Development of Panelized Exterior Retrofit Solutions for Commercial and Institutional Buildings” took place at the Centre for Advanced Building Envelope Research (CABER) and was supported by the Chair as a part of the Reconstruct Initiative. By simulating upgrades to building and mechanical systems to determine optimal component configurations, Isaac has helped develop vital technical solutions for the adoption of deep energy retrofits in Canada. Congratulations, Isaac!
