Oct 21 | IEBCA-ACCEPT Joint Webinar: Post-COVID Transportation Impact Assessments – How Can We Do Better
Alon Weinberger, P.Eng.
Thu Oct 21 2021 17:30:00 GMT-0700 (Pacific Daylight Time)
Please join the Iranian Engineers of BC Association (IEBCA) and the Association of Canadian Chinese Engineering Professionals and Technologies (ACCEPT) in an informative webinar presentation by Mr. Alon Weinberger, P.Eng. from Evolve Traffic Solutions. This virtual event (through Zoom Meeting) is in English and free of charge, and it is open to the public. Members of Engineers and Geoscientists BC may claim 1 Continuing Education (CE) Hour for attending the event.
The COVID-19 Pandemic has transformed our way of life. There is little disagreement that some of these changes, like the way we live, work, and shop, are here to stay after this pandemic is over. These changes have already had direct impacts on where people choose to live and how they travel. While Transportation Impact Assessments (TIAs) have evolved over the years, they still generally follow a traditional pattern of vehicle trip generation, parking, and AM/PM peak periods. This presentation delves into the approaches to TIAs, and explains why and how the focus has to shift to include other areas more in-line with the new post-COVID reality.
About the Speaker:

Jun 24 | Flood Protection in the Lower Mainland
Please join the Iranian Engineers of BC Association (IEBCA) for an informative signature webinar, which includes four presentations on flood protection in the Lower Mainland; one with a regional perspective by the Fraser Basin Council, and three from municipality perspectives: City of Delta, City of Richmond, and City of Surrey. The event is in English, and it is intended to create an environment for a constructive dialogue and knowledge exchange between the authorities and the public, especially engineers. EGBC members may claim 2 Continuing Education (CE) Hours for attending the event.
Climate scientists have estimated about 1 m rise in sea level by the year 2100 for the Lower Mainland of British Columbia. Simultaneously, climate change is resulting in higher intensity and shorter duration precipitation events, which the existing municipal stormwater systems may not be able to handle with their current capacities. At the same time, Greater Vancouver’s population is forecast to grow by about 300,000 over the next 10 years, which will lead to more residential, commercial and industrial developments, thereby further taxing the existing municipal infrastructure systems. These factors, either on their own, or in combination, can lead to flooding which will have a detrimental effect on people’s lives, their properties and the environment. Flood protection measures are therefore critically important to be properly funded and maintained. Three of the Lower mainland municipalities which are facing some of the greatest challenges viz-a-viz flooding are Delta, Richmond and Surrey. These municipalities and other organizations and agencies are also working on a regional flood strategy being facilitated by the Fraser Basin Council. IEBCA is very much pleased to have gathered the regional and municipal staff with responsibility to address flood protection management protocols. This event will help us better learn how each of us, as residents of the Lower Mainland, can do our part to help address and mitigate the challenges of future flooding.
Notes:
1) The event will be in English, and EGBC members may claim 2 Continuing Education (CE) Hours for attending the event.
2) At the time of the event, the admittance to the presentation room starts at 5:15 PM, and the program starts at 5:30 PM sharp. During this time (5:15 -5:30), the audience will have a chance to network with each other in the room through the Chat Box. A second chance will also be provided to the audience after the Q/A session of the program to do their last minutes of networking through the Chat Box.
Registration Fee:
$5 for IEBCA Members (need to login before payment)
$20 for Non-Members
Location:Online (Zoom Meeting) - Please see the Registration Link at the bottom of this page.

May 25 | BC Energy Step Code and Compliance Reports IEBCA
Amir Ekhlasi, M.Arch., CEABC Energy Step Code and Compliance Reports
BC Energy Step Code was introduced on April 7, 2017 as an amendment to the 2012 BC Building Code (BCBC) with goal of raising the bar in energy efficiency and saving in building construction through a step-based, motivational approach that leads to harmonization of local governments' bylaws as relates to energy efficiency in new buildings. Under the Building Act, December 15, 2017 was set as a deadline for BC local governments wishing to set higher energy-efficiency standards than the minimum requirements required by BCBC to do so using the BC Energy Step Code instead of their current bylaws. This presentation aims to: Build an understanding of: The BC Energy Step Code, The BC Energy Step Code Metrics, Provide clear instructions on how to address the BC Energy Step Code requirements; more specifically: How to work with local governments, How to work with an Energy Advisor, and How to prepare the BC Energy Compliance Reports.
Location:Delbrook Community Recreation Center 851 W Queens Rd, North Vancouver, BC V7N 4E3
About the Speaker:Amir Ekhlasi has over 20 years of education and experience in residential construction. With an architectural engineering education background, Amir’s focus has been on single-family and multi-unit residential energy evaluations and energy consulting. He has evaluated hundreds of new homes across the Lower Mainland. Drawing from this experience he now works as a Certified Energy Advisor for Enersaver Solutions delivering EnerGuide, Energy Star and Net Zero for New Homes, and BuiltGreen programs.

The ACCEPT Student Mentorship Program is designed to pair an engineering student with an engineer-in-training to provide students with guidance and support as they progress towards completing their engineering degree. ACCEPT believes that mentoring will equip engineering students with a greater understanding of the roles and responsibilities of an engineer-in-training working in the industry and preparing them for success in their chosen profession.
The primary objective of the Student Mentorship Program is to help guide engineering students through their undergraduate education, develop as a professional student and preparing them for working in the industry. While discussion around career matters are encouraged, the intent of the program is not to be a job search mechanism. ACCEPT do have other program offerings that are specifically designed to help students through their job search process.
The kickoff event of the Student Mentorship Program is a 2-hour speakers series. Registered Professional Engineers and Engineers-In-Training from the industry will facilitate the event. Students will be given an hour following the speakers series to network among presenters and other engineering students.
