Monthly Meeting and Educational Program

Cashman Equipment Headquarters: Panel discussion on the LEED Green Building Process
with the Owner, Architect, and General Contractor

Panel: Mike Pack, COO, Cashman Equipment
Eric Roberts, Associate AIA, LEED AP, SH Architecture
Roger Thomas, Senior Project Manager, LEED AP, Burke and Associates, Inc.

Please join us for a relevant discussion on the LEED process using a recently completed project as an example. Cashman Equipment completed their new headquarters in Henderson and anticipates a LEED Gold certification. The campus uses technologies such as a ground source heat pump system for heating and cooling, high performance glass, high indoor air quality strategies, use of recycled products, and of particular importance to Cashman, the project doubled the minimum required regional material. The project was designed by SH Architecture and built by Burke and Associates.

The owner, architect, and general contractor performed as a true team collaborating on all issues to make the best possible choice for the maximum benefit. This panel will include a representative from each organization to share their experiences.

Sponsored by: Nevada Sales Agency

Green Munch & Learn

How do you save up to 8% of your kilowatt hours and add electrical capacity?

Presented by: Nick Burton, Harmonics Limited

Nick will explain that the cheapest “New Power Plant” is the one you don’t have to build. There is a renewable energy resource that is perfectly clean, remarkably cheap and surprisingly abundant as well as immediately available. It’s called Energy Efficiency. Harmonics Limited focuses on a key component in our customer’s electrical distribution system for saving energy and increasing usable capacity by eliminating 3rd harmonic currents that flow throughout their system.

Advance reservations are required. Please use this Event Flyer / RSVP form.
