FGIA on the Main Stage
Designing for Daylight | Illuminating Health and Architecture
- Wednesday, September 23, 11:30 am-12:20 pm Pacific
- Moderator: Janice Yglesias, FGIA Executive Director
Daylight is more than an aesthetic choice. It affects productivity, learning, health, and recovery. This session connects the latest research in daylighting and human health with practical design strategies and offers insights into the code landscape shaping what is required.
NAFS-26 | Understanding Key Changes and Impacts on Testing Requirements
- Thursday, September 24, 2:20-2:50 pm Pacific
- Speaker: Aaron Blom, FGIA Technical Training Specialist
The 2026 edition of AAMA/WDMA/CSA 101/I.S.2/A440, the North American Fenestration Standard/Specification for windows, doors and skylights (NAFS), introduces important updates that impact fenestration product testing, labeling and approval across North America. Developed by CSA Group, the Fenestration and Glazing Industry Alliance, and the Window & Door Manufacturers Association, the standard continues to evolve in response to industry and regulatory needs. This session will focus on the now-mandatory secondary designator, influenced by proposals from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and will break down what this means for performance ratings, compliance and product approval, especially as concerns like water intrusion gain attention in key regions.
