Advancing the Future of Construction with Bio-Based Materials
AIA CES program ID: GMGH.0026
Approved LUs: 1 LU|HSW
Prerequisites: None
Program level: Entry
Advance learner preparation: None
What if your material choices could lower carbon emissions, slash fire risk, improve indoor air quality, and create affordable housing options—without sacrificing performance or code compliance?
Hemp and other bio-based building materials aren’t fringe anymore. They’re advancing into the heart of construction—and changing what it means to build responsibly. This course shows you how to align climate goals with real-world application, unlocking sustainable design that actually delivers.
Program Description
From carbon-negative walls to toxin-free insulation, bio-based materials are redefining the future of construction—and hemp is leading the charge. This course, developed in partnership with the Hemp Building Institute, takes you inside the evolving landscape of natural building materials that do more than just meet sustainability standards. You’ll explore how industrial hemp and hempcrete are being used to create fire-resistant, energy-efficient, and breathable buildings that outperform traditional systems in both residential and commercial settings.
But innovation doesn’t come without barriers. That’s why this course doesn’t stop at performance—it also addresses the political, logistical, and regulatory forces that shape adoption, and equips you with the tools to navigate them. From permitting to public perception, you’ll leave with the clarity and confidence to specify bio-based systems in real projects. Whether you’re designing for affordability, resilience, or regenerative impact, this course helps you push beyond greenwashing and into true environmental leadership.
Learning Objectives
By taking this course, participants will:
Identify the carbon reduction, health, and resilience benefits of hemp-based materials in both new construction and retrofits
Evaluate the structural and thermal performance of hempcrete, including its fire resistance and vapor permeability advantages over traditional insulation
Navigate real-world regulatory, market, and perception-based barriers to specifying hemp, and examine strategies for overcoming them in both commercial and residential contexts
Apply bio-based materials in the design of affordable housing projects that prioritize occupant health, long-term durability, and reduced environmental impact
Who Should Take This Course
This course is designed for professionals who don’t just want to follow sustainability trends—they want to lead the charge. Perfect for:
Architects and designers working toward net-zero, regenerative, or low-carbon standards and looking for actionable material alternatives
Builders, contractors, and consultants ready to integrate fire-resistant, cost-effective insulation and wall systems into real-world workflows
Housing authorities, developers, and nonprofit builders focused on sustainable, healthy materials for affordable housing initiatives
Firms navigating ESG or LEED targets and seeking alternatives to conventional, carbon-heavy materials that no longer align with client values
If you’re done settling for “less bad” materials and ready to specify options that truly do good, this course is for you.
Why It Matters
This is more than a sustainability credit. It’s a gateway into the next era of architecture—where buildings sequester carbon, protect...
