The key to an energy-efficient metal building is the implementation of a continuous insulation system that virtually eliminates thermal bridging and prevents condensation. This course discusses how using thermal spacer blocks and metal building insulation in the building envelope increases energy performance, protects against condensation, and meets stringent energy code requirements.

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

  • Describe metal buildings, how they are manufactured, and the components that make up a metal building system.
  • Explain the issues that compromise energy efficiency, thermal comfort, and condensation management of a building and the design elements that can be implemented to prevent these issues in metal buildings.
  • Summarize the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) compliance paths and the role thermal spacer blocks play in meeting code requirements to reduce energy consumption and minimize mold, mildew, and other condensation-related problems.
  • Define thermal spacer block and list its performance benefits with a focus on how it contributes to the thermal efficiency of a building envelope that improves occupant comfort and reduces the likelihood of condensation.

Approximately 1 hour, 30 minutes. Delivered online, at your own pace.
