Insulated Metal Panels: The "Perfect" Envelope Solution

Review the physics of building envelopes, including hygrothermal loads, control layers, climate zones and cladding functions. The importance of control layer continuity at wall, roof and slab connections is studied. We look at how IMPs perform the same functions as multi-component wall systems through the use of panels joints, sealants, and an insulating core. Emphasis is placed on the concept of the 'Perfect/Universal Wall', and how utilizing the proper ordering of wall components can greatly simplify wall design in all climate zones. Energy codes are also touched on, including their impact on the use of 'Perfect/Universal Wall' designs. This course reduces a relatively complex subject to a level that teaches practical concepts for the building designer.
