A rainscreen is a type of assembly applied to an exterior wall consisting of an outer layer, inner layer, and a ventilated cavity between the two. These systems have been used extensively in other markets but are relatively new to the US. As codes evolve, and building science advances, rainscreens are becoming a popular way of enclosing buildings. They greatly increase performance while simultaneously enabling designers to achieve new and striking designs.

Designers, owners, and occupants all value the appeal of natural brick and wood for exterior cladding and interior surfaces. But these natural materials come with drawbacks. Wood can split, warp, cup, mold, and attract insects. Brick is heavy and susceptible to efflorescence. Quality control is not assured. The fresh alternative is resin cast shapes that mimic wood and brick, delivering the benefits of biophilia and a sense of connection with the natural world, but without the problems. This course examines the wood and brick aesthetic of resin cast shapes and demonstrates their sustainability and performance qualities. They are durable, lightweight, easy to install, and contribute to a continuous building envelope. Case studies of noteworthy projects illustrate the superior form and function of this next-level cladding alternative.

Fiber cement rainscreen systems combine timeless, designer aesthetics with advanced energy efficiency, creating a superior building envelope solution. This course discusses the history and characteristics of high-density cement fiber cladding. It then illustrates how a fully engineered, multi-layered system integrates an air and water-resistive barrier, a robust sub-construction made from aluminum or steel brackets and profiles, mineral wool thermal insulation board, and durable high-density fiber cement. Images illustrate how the fiber cement panels can be custom-fabricated into various shapes, offering design versatility. Ideal for both modern and traditional architecture, fiber cement rainscreen systems ensure long-lasting performance, durability, and adaptability to any design vision.
