Building Envelope Technology Access Centre (BETAC)

建筑围护结构技术访问中心（BETAC）提供建筑围护结构和组装研究， 为建筑物业主、设计师、产品供应商、服务供应商和制冷行业提供技术服务和培训 气候服务的广度和获得专业技术、专门知识和设施的机会提供了灵活性， 为积极主动、追求效率的受众增加价值。 在过去的四年半里，交谘会一直专注于最初提出的应用 研究、技术服务和培训。TAC积极与各种组织和小到 中型企业（中小企业）在该地区，在三个服务类别的每一个活动。完成 40多个整栋建筑气密性测试超过2200万平方米。英尺建筑面积;确定超过25万立方 米当量的天然气能源消耗，以加热意外的空气泄漏，相当于475吨 温室气体排放量（GHG）。 RRC要求将NSERC CCI的TAC支持延长五年。访问RRC 如果没有这种支持，工业界的技术资产和专门知识将极为有限。RRC 战术咨询委员会的持续运作对于保持创新和持续应用的势头至关重要 研究计划和服务。

The Building Envelope Technology Access Centre (BETAC) provides building envelope and assembly research, technical services and training to building owners, designers, product suppliers, service providers and trades in cold climates. The breadth of services and access to specialized technology, expertise and facilities provide flexibility and add value to an audience that is proactive and seeks efficiency. Over the last four and a half years, the TAC has focused on the originally proposed service portfolios of applied research, technical services and training. The TAC is actively engaged with a variety of organizations and small to mid-size enterprises (SMEs) around the region, with activities in each of the three service categories. Completed over 40 whole building air tightness tests over 22 million sq. ft. of building floor space; identified over 250,000 cubic meters of equivalent natural gas energy consumption to heat unintended air leakage which translates to 475 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) per year. RRC is requesting the renewal of NSERC CCI's TAC support for another five-year period. Access to RRC's technological assets and expertise by industry would have been extremely limited without this support. RRC's continual operation of the TAC is critical for sustaining the momentum towards innovation and on-going applied research programs and services.
