Building Science Education, Made Accessible.
We translate building science into technical resources and learning experiences for manufacturers, practitioners, and institutions responding to evolving codes, standards, and technologies.
From best-practice guidelines to scalable education programs, we turn complex requirements into shared understanding across the industry.
How We Work
RDH’s Training and Publications team pairs building science expertise with instructional and editorial rigor. Our specialists include instructional designers, visual designers, technical editors, and technical illustrators.
Who We Work With
We develop custom educational resources and training programs for technical, sales, and business development staff. From installation guides to product-specific e-learning, we build the materials and deliver the training.
We create custom training materials, industry-specific installation guides, and facilitated programs in in-person, online, and self-paced formats. We also support engagement with collaborators and partners.
We apply RDH’s building science and engineering expertise to develop capacity-building tools, staff training, and educational resources that support the adoption of building performance policies, codes, and standards.
We develop field-focused training materials and courses that address installation techniques and construction challenges, designed to fit construction schedules and support hands-on learning.
We produce continuing education courses, workshop materials, and technical resources on building performance, enclosure, constructability, and materiality, supporting teams in applying new knowledge to practice.
What Sets Us Apart
Technical and Instructional Expertise — RDH has a dedicated team specializing in learning technology, editorial, and graphic design that partners with our building science specialists including instructional designers, visual designers, technical editors, and technical illustrators to create accurate, goal-oriented resources that make complex information usable and memorable.
Learning by Doing — Our programs focus on collaboration, peer learning, and hands-on problem-solving, helping participants apply new knowledge directly to their professional work, whether they are using a tape measure in the field or a pencil at the desk.
Simplifying with Visualization — We produce illustrations and animations to explain complex enclosure concepts, including construction sequencing graphics, photorealistic renderings, and animations from whole-building conceptual modeling to fabrication detailing.
Clear, Concise, and Complete — We hold our work to a communication standard that serves AEC audiences specifically. Our resources distill regulatory complexity, installation requirements, and building science principles into guidance that supports professional development, workforce training, and industry education.
