SUMMARY:ABAA\, BEC Minnesota & CSI Minneapolis-St. Paul Full Day Symposium
DESCRIPTION:ABAA in partnership with BEC Minnesota and CSI Minneapolis – St. Paul Full Day Air Barrier Symposium\nEarn up to 4.0 LU/HSW \nRegister Today \nProgram Agenda \n8:00 – 8:30 AM\nRegistration\, Breakfast\, & Networking \n8:30 – 9:30 AM\nBuilding Enclosure Architectural Details: Conveying Construction Drawing Clarity\, 1.0 LU/HSW\nMelissa Payne\, BECxP\, CxA+BE\, CDT\, BE Consulting – Forensics\, Midwest Enclosure Consulting\nIncomplete or unclear drawings often lead to performance issues in the field. This session reviews building science fundamentals and shows how to improve detail clarity at foundations\, roofs\, windows\, penetrations\, and material transitions to support durable\, energy-efficient enclosures. \n10:30 – 11:30 AM\nSelf-Adhered Membrane Applications: What Does It Really Mean to Stick? 1.0 LU/HSW\nCody Shelner\, PE\, Head of Marketing\, Air & Waterproofing\, tesa Air and Waterproofing\nSelf-adhered membranes are popular for their ease of use and reliability in air and moisture control. However\, performance depends on more than peel adhesion. This session reviews the forces these membranes must resist—wind\, stack effect\, and pressurization—and explores how to properly evaluate long-term durability under real conditions. Learn why comprehensive performance testing is essential when specifying or inspecting these systems. \n11:30AM – 12:30 PM\nLunch \n12:30 – 1:30 PM\nLocating That Elusive Point of Condensation: A Review of Hygrothermal Evaluation Fundamentals\, 1.0 LU/HSW\nAndrew Dunlap\, AIA\, NCARB\, LEED AP\, Vice President | Building Technology Studio Leader\, SmithGroup\nThis presentation will review the various types of Hygrothermal modeling tools available to assistance designers in developing a building’s exterior enclosure. Variables such as the interior and exterior climate (temperature/humidity)\, material permeance\, wall assembly types\, and transitions between adjacent construction will be explored. Understanding the impact of the decision to use various modeling techniques such as 1D/2D/3D and transient versus static modeling will be discussed. \n1:30 – 2:00 PM\nBreak \n2:00 – 3:00 PM\nFailure is Not an Option: Air Barrier Continuity Strategies for Storefront & Curtain Wall Systems\, 1.0 LU/HSW\nAndrew Dunlap\, AIA\, NCARB\, LEED AP\, Vice President | Building Technology Studio Leader\, SmithGroup\nWall-to-window transitions are a leading source of enclosure failures. This session provides a step-by-step look at sequencing and connection details\, supported by real-world photos\, to ensure airtight\, watertight\, and thermally protected assemblies. \n3:00 PM\nTeardown & Adjourn \nRegistration Fees: \n\nBEC & CSI Members: $50\nNon-members: $75\n\nSponsorships Contact:\nTamara Foncerrada / tamara@airbarrier.org \nVenue:\nBoy Scouts of America Base Camp\n6202 Bloomington Rd.\nFort Snelling\, MN 55111
