Description

This course outlines the dangers posed by Mother Nature and how science, codes, testing, and methods have been developed to a platform upon which to build and combat these forces.   We will also address how properly incorporating materials, including continuous insulation and air and weather-barrier systems, will improve indoor air quality and contribute to environmental sustainability.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
1.  Learn About the Science Behind Thermal, Air, Vapor, and Water Control for Steel Stud Construction
2.  Provide an Understanding of Rainscreen Systems and how they can Enhance Building Design; improving Building Performance and Longevity, while improving the Indoor Environment and contribute to Environmental Sustainability.
3.  Discover How POLYISO and ACM/MCM can work together Meeting Requirements Outperform Traditional Methods in High Wind conditions and meet NFPA-285 Wall Assembly requirements.
4.  Interpret the Code Requirements for Building Envelope Design and Performance .
