How to Achieve Superior Building Envelope Performance in Rainscreen Wall Design

Approximately 1 hour 30 minutes

The building envelope must withstand the effects of long-term exposure to the elements. This course explores rainscreen wall design and the control of hygrothermal loads. The traditional multicomponent backup wall assembly is compared with the single-component, insulated metal composite backup wall system, outlining key differences in design and construction and their overall effect on installation and performance.
