Airtightness & Moisture Management Workshop

This airtightness workshop offers a fresh look at the features of resilient and efficient envelope design. It examines the key layers that comprise the fabric of the building, and describes how a well-planned weather, air, and vapor sealing strategy avoids risk and saves money. Strategies in High-Performance Building Envelopes Participants will be engaged in a discussion and a hands-on envelope detailing workshop. During this 4-hour, interactive course participants will learn:

• Building science fundamentals and the environmental impacts that affect building performance taught by SIGA
• Building envelope key components & terms
• The importance of a continuous weather & airtightness layer(s)
• Strategies to avoid risk from design to implementation
