SUMMARY:Dispelling the Myths about Building Enclosure Warranties  1.5 CEU/HSW
DESCRIPTION:Dispelling the Myths about Building Enclosure Warranties\nBuilding Envelope System Warranties are becoming more sought after and bring some real value to a building owner – they help manage risk and obtain peace of mind. What constitutes a building enclosure system warranty? Can such a warranty be attained under one umbrella of coverage? Our industry understands how critical it is to ensure building enclosure protection from water\, air\, and thermal intrusion\, at every level\, and at every transition\, but is our industry ready for shift in practices to make this a reality for building owners? In a world aiming to minimize financial exposure\, system warranties are a good option. But are they really that simple to specify and implement? Join us to learn more about building enclosure system warranties\, the value they bring\, what they are\, how to specify them\, and what to look out for during the build process. \nLearning Objectives: \n\n Explain the scale and causes of building enclosure failures as a billion-dollar annual issue and describe why performance specifications – defining performance\, functional\, and technical requirements – are essential to reducing these failures.\n Identify and interpret key contract terms\, conditions\, and warranties\, and analyze how they assign responsibilities among parties and outline remedies in cases of claims or breaches.\n Differentiate between full system warranties\, component warranties\, and workmanship warranties\, and evaluate how full building envelope warranties align with Building Code compliance and the performance expectations of components that are moderately difficult to access or replace.\nDistinguish the coverage terms of various whole building envelope warranties and apply this understanding to appropriately incorporate warranty requirements into project specifications\n\nRegister Now \nMelissa Payne\, BECxP\, CxA+BE\, CDT\, Owner\, Midwest Enclosure Consulting\, LLC \nMelissa I.

SUMMARY:Air Barrier Embodied Carbon: A Critical Review 1.0 CEU/HSW
DESCRIPTION:Air Barrier Embodied Carbon: A Critical Review\nThe session will start with a review of embodied carbon impacts applied to air barriers. This will include a comparison of published air barrier embodied carbon values\, varying assessment methodologies\, and their limitations. A recommended approach of evaluating embodied carbon impacts based on clear field and linear/point impacts similar to modern thermal performance analysis will be presented. The impacts of this approach will be illustrated using example building envelope assemblies. A number of common project air barrier considerations will be discussed including: the use of membranes under exterior spray foam applications\, the use of liquid applied air barriers on masonry when applying interior fibrous insulation\, and the use of loose sheet vs liquid applied or self-adhered air barriers. This session will be of interest to a range of participants: manufacturer’s will be interested in the review of environmental product declarations (EPDs) and how it may affect their systems; professionals will be interested in the insights and approaches offered and application to their practices in selecting systems and reporting embodied carbon impacts. The session be a great targeted introduction for contractors and others in the industry with an interest in embodied carbon applications to their field of work. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nIdentify the embodied carbon impact stage for air barrier\n Determine Clear Field vs Linear Impacts\nIllustrate the impact of air barrier on the embodied carbon of building envelope assemblies\nIdentify the impacts of common air barrier strategy selections\n\nRegister Now \nDr. Randy Van Straaten\, PhD\, P.Eng\, President\, Building Science Specialist\, Building Enclosure Labs\, Inc \nDr. Randy Van Straaten is the President and a Building Science Specialist at Building Enclosure Labs Inc.

SUMMARY:Saddle Up! Integrating Control Layers at Parapet to Rise Walls Conditions 1.0 CEU/HSW
DESCRIPTION: Saddle Up! Integrating Control Layers at Parapet to Rise Walls Conditions\nWater and air leakage\, deterioration\, and biological growth often occur at parapet terminations where adjacent rise walls lack proper integration of air and moisture control layers. These issues typically stem from missing or inadequate detailing\, sequencing\, trade coordination\, and installation—compounded by limited industry standards and general lack of awareness. While most designs rely on two-dimensional details\, complex roof-to-wall interfaces require multi-step\, three-dimensional detailing. Proper construction sequencing\, trade coordination\, and mock-ups—including saddle flashing—are essential. This presentation will review design principles for integrating control layers at complex conditions and demonstrate how freehand sketches\, paper folding\, 3D modeling\, collaboration with trades and manufacturers\, and mock-ups help develop effective saddle flashing details. \nLearning Objectives: \n\n Understand the importance of critical detailing of control layers at complex conditions to avoid air and water-related problems\n Learn effective ways to develop and design successful details at complex conditions that are constructable and durable\n Recognize the importance of considering construction sequencing and trade coordination when developing complex details\n Understand the importance of mock-ups for evaluating detailing\, sequencing and performance testing to ensure water-resistant and airtight designs\n\nRegister Now \nMichael Nagle\, NCARB\, Firmwide Quality Leader | Building Enclosures\, Cannon Design \nIn his role as a firmwide quality leader of building enclosures\, Michael Nagle leads CannonDesign’s building enclosure group\, leads standard development\, performs quality reviews\, and develops in-house training for fellow colleagues in the area of building science fundamentals and building enclosure design.

SUMMARY:Designing Wall Systems for Specific Climate Zones   1.0 CEU/HSW
DESCRIPTION:Designing Wall Systems for Specific Climate Zones\nCopying and pasting a wall or roof assembly that works in one part of our country into a project in another part of the country could be not just problematic\, but potentially catastrophic. This presentation will use data and hygrothermal modeling to articulate what happens when tried and true assemblies from one part of the country get moved to a very different climate. More importantly\, we’ll cover strategies to mitigate these issues. While many may be familiar with a Class I Vapor Retarder (“vapor barrier”) in the wrong part of an assembly\, we’ll also cover the impacts of insulation type\, the overreaction to perm ratings\, light-colored roofing membranes\, and reservoir claddings such as stucco and unit masonry. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nLearn climate-specific design strategies for durable construction.\nLearn to avoid common mistakes that can lead to mold\, rot\, mildew\, corrosion and decay.\nUnderstand how hygrothermal modeling can be used in the design process to ensure durability.\nLearn how material properties (permeability\, heat capacity\, density\, conductivity\, and porosity) impact wall assemblies.\n\nRegister Now \nJohn Posenecker\, P.E.\, Senior Principal And Regional Facilities Manager\, Terracon Consultants\, Inc.  \nJohn Posenecker is the Senior Principal and the Building Enclosure Practice Leader for Terracon Consultants\, Inc.

SUMMARY:Peeling Back the Onion   1.0 CEU/HSW
DESCRIPTION:Peeling Back the Onion\nThis presentation is an in-depth dive into a leak investigation at a high school Industrial Arts and Horticulture Building that snowballed into a remedial architecture project and then escalated further with discoveries that raised structural red flags and created an expansion to the original scope of work. While investigating water damage\, additional nonconforming conditions were uncovered and additional areas had to be opened\, revealing even more questionable building practices. In the end\, the structure of the south façade was replaced\, as well as 1/3 of the roof structure\, and the entire building was “re-skinned”. Due to the nature of the failures\, this project also became a case for litigation. \nThis presentation is presented as a Case Study that covers the timeline of the project from the initial investigation\, the layers of additional discoveries\, the remedial design\, and the construction process while briefly covering the litigation that followed. Throughout the timeline\, each layer of the onion is pulled back for discussion\, as well as to inform attendees of how each of those issues was overcome. \nLearning Objectives: \n\n Through a Case Study of a completed K-12 project\, participants will examine the importance of regular on-site QA/QC observations during the construction process\n Participants will discuss the importance of continuity between air and water barrier systems and how lapping and transitions between adjacent systems are often incorrectly addressed\n Participants will discuss the importance of well-planned and coordinated building maintenance plans in relation to an existing real-world project.\nParticipants will acquire a better understanding of sequencing and constructability and how what is drawn relates to what is actually constructed.\n\nRegister Now \nNathan Taylor\, CSI\, CDT\, Associate\, Building Enclosure Consultant\, DTR Consulting Services \nNathan Taylor\, CSI\, CDT\, is an accomplished international professional with extensive architectural design and building envelope experience. He holds a Master’s degree in Architecture and Urban Planning and is highly involved in CSI.

SUMMARY:If It's Not Raining Why Is My Roof Leaking? 1.0 CEU/HSW
DESCRIPTION:If It’s Not Raining\, Why Is My Roof Leaking?\nRoof leaks and moisture within wall assemblies are never good for building performance. The typical response is to search for a rain-related leak—until it becomes clear that it isn’t raining at all. Without rainfall\, bulk water entry should not be occurring\, yet moisture continues to appear in the building enclosure. Too often\, the real causes are overlooked because not all mechanisms of moisture transport are considered. This leads many to incorrectly assume the issue lies with the perm rating of the water-resistive barrier. This presentation examines all primary modes of moisture movement within buildings\, explains why relying on the perm rating of a single material is misleading\, and reveals how moisture—often in significant volumes—can accumulate within the building envelope. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nIdentify the primary mechanisms of moisture transport in building envelopes\nDescribe the two most common causes of moisture accumulation in buildings\nExplain why water vapor transmission rate alone is an unreliable indicator of moisture risk\nDiscuss how and why moisture-related building problems tend to worsen over time\n\nRegister Now \nLaverne Dalgleish\, Executive Director\, ABAA \nMr. Laverne Dalgleish is the Executive Director of the Air Barrier Association of America (ABAA). As such\, he works to champion energy conservation in buildings while educating the building owners and designers about the benefits of energy conservation such as durability\, comfort\, reduced maintenance\, reduced HVAC equipment costs and the positive impact on the environment. \nMr. Dalgleish travels North America on a weekly basis to educate building owners and designers on the benefits of effective and working air barrier systems in buildings. This education mission includes working with standards development organizations\, training and education groups\, government policy departments\, and quality assurance program developers for the construction industry. Mr. Dalgleish is the Secretariat of two ISO Committees\, ISO TC61 SC10 Cellular Plastics and ISO TC163 SC3 Thermal Insulation Products. He is also Chair of the ULC Thermal Performance in the Building Environment Standards Committee. \nMr. Dalgleish was the key developer of the ABAA Quality Assurance Program for the installation of air barrier systems in buildings. This program is based on ISO9000 and ISO 12576-2 but brings the ISO requirements together with practical applications for the air barrier industry.
