This recorded webinar is the third of five sessions presented during the Building Science Master Summit held by DuPont Performance Building Solutions. This course dives into the topic of below-grade thermal performance and how to appropriately design for the long term. It explores heat loss patterns; energy code requirements and how they differ by region and building type; insulating best practices and benefits; and considerations for material selection.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

  • Understand the benefits of insulating foundation walls and slabs.
  • Become familiar with their energy code requirements.
  • Differentiate between interior and exterior below-grade wall insulation methods and become familiar with various wall and floor slab assembly insulation options.
  • Understand the breadth of below-grade insulation material options and the difference in their long-term thermal performance.

Approximately 1 hour, 15 minutes. Delivered online, at your own pace.
