SUMMARY:Addressing Condensation in Low-Slope Roof Assemblies 1.0 CEU/HSW
DESCRIPTION:Addressing Condensation in Low-Slope Roof Assemblies\nIn basic roofing design\, vapor retarders and air barriers play a crucial role in reducing air leakage and enhancing the performance of the roof system. However\, their benefits extend beyond simple air sealing. This course explores the impact of new innovative technologies\, including permeable vapor retarders and air barriers\, on moisture management\, energy efficiency\, and wind uplift resistance in low-slope roofing assemblies. Attendees will gain insights into moisture infiltration\, air movement\, and the risks associated with condensation buildup\, material degradation\, and loss of R-value in the roofing assembly. The presentation will cover strategies for the proper design and placement of a permeable vapor retarder to mitigate condensation buildup and premature roof failures. Recent research findings will highlight how advanced moisture control solutions\, such as permeable vapor retarders\, enhance long-term roof resiliency and durability\, lowering the total cost of ownership. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nUnderstand the function of vapor retarders\, permeable vapor retarders\, and the main component layers in low-slope roof assemblies.\n Examine vapor drive and how moisture vapor moves through roofing systems.\n Assess the impact of permeable vapor retarders and air barriers on condensation buildup\, thermal performance\, and wind uplift resistance.\n Identify common misconceptions about air and moisture control layers and how to effectively mitigate moisture-related roof assembly failures.\n\nRegister Now \n \nScott Wood\, Senior Building Scientist\, VaproShield \nScott D.
