Tales from the Clipboard: Season 2 1.0 CEU/HSW
2025-05-29 13:00 - 14:00 (America/Detroit)
Have you been a participant to a flawed decision in air barrier design and building enclosure improvements? These “gifts” or lessons grow the collective base of functional air barrier retrofit processes and procedures…providing we share our findings. It is from these moments that we are able to grow and utilize building science principles to avoid significant building degradation and functional installation processes. Let’s share the information so others do not have to make the same mistakes and frustrations. We do have to be on the edge in order to move forward. It shows us what is possible. Without these small steps forward we are stuck at idle. Everyone has to learn each of their own lessons, but if we can help someone avoid the same mistakes, they can then learn their own lessons to share with others while avoiding costly mistakes. This is a continued excerpt from some of the discovered failings from 20 years of energy audits, and air barrier inspections.
Learning Objectives:

Understanding high pressure flows towards low pressure
Explain why liquid applied membranes need to be applied at design temperatures
Explain what will happen if an air barrier and thermal barrier is poorly defined in steel stud construction.
Describe basics of a large building blower door test and what could happen if not prepared.

Designing Wall Systems for Specific Climate Zones 1.0 CEU/HSW
2025-06-05 13:00 - 14:00
Copying 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.
Learning Objectives:

Learn climate-specific design strategies for durable construction.
Learn to avoid common mistakes that can lead to mold, rot, mildew, corrosion and decay.
Understand how hygrothermal modeling can be used in the design process to ensure durability.
Learn how material properties (permeability, heat capacity, density, conductivity, and porosity) impact wall assemblies.

ABAA Contractor Webinar: A Little Light Reading: A Contractor’s Guide to Specifications
2025-06-25 11:00 - 12:00
ABAA Contractor Webinar: A Little Light Reading: A Contractor’s Guide to Specifications
We are excited to invite you to an exclusive webinar presented by Amy Baker, a seasoned Registered Architect and Specifications Consultant with over 20 years of experience in the commercial construction industry.
Construction specifications are assembled by design professionals to communicate product information, qualitative standards, and procedural requirements to the construction team. The resulting project manual, a contract document which can be several hundreds of pages long, takes time to break down and understand.
This presentation is designed to help contractors effectively navigate construction specifications and understand where to find specific information on processes, materials, and quality expectations.
Learning Objectives:

Terminology & Navigation: Master the basic terminology used in specifications and discover where to find crucial information.
Quality Air Barrier Installations: Learn how specifications communicate ABAA QAP requirements and procedures for whole building air tightness testing.
Requesting Clarifications: Understand the proper procedures for requesting clarification when drawings or specifications are unclear or conflicting.
Coordination Across Trades: Identify key specification language that requires coordination between trades and understand its implications for your work.

Unforeseen Impacts of Building Modifications to Envelope Assemblies 1.0 CEU/HSW
2025-06-26 13:00 - 14:00
Unforeseen Impacts of Building Modifications to Envelope Assemblies
This presentation involves case studies involving renovations, additions, and changes of use to buildings which resulted in building envelope failures. Project examples will demonstrate how interior renovations and changes of use and occupancy can negatively affect envelope assemblies, and how risk can be minimized with proper design solutions, as well as making sure the end-user is aware of how their interior environmental requirements will affect the building they have decided to occupy. One case study involves a manufacturing facility that was constructed with a low sloped single-ply membrane roofing system. An expansion to the building and changes to its interior environments required elevated internal humidity levels with frequent air exchange rates. These modifications caused the assembly’s structural attachment to the roof deck and parapet walls to fail, increasing the risk of a blow-off which would have halted its production output and affected its financial bottom line. Additional case studies provide examples of how increases in interior vapor drive negatively affected other similar roofing assemblies, as well as opaque wall and glazing assemblies due to excessive condensation and deterioration of their system components. Analyses of these buildings were performed, identifying significant hygrothermal issues which initiated complex designs to repair the observed damage and deterioration.
Learning Objectives:

Recognizing during design how an exterior envelope system will perform after a building’s use and/or occupancy will be altered during a renovation or addition project.
Why continuous air and vapor control layers within roofing and wall assemblies are necessary to protect their various components, increase the lifespan of the assemblies, and benefit the overall well-being of a building’s users.
Selecting proper glazing systems, roofing membranes, air and/or vapor barriers, and insulation components, and the importance of transition details from the roof to the wall to maintain the continuity of these barrier systems for protecting the building from both water infiltration and vapor drive.
How hygrothermal analysis methods can be used to diagnose the negative effects of uncontrolled vapor drive, as well as inform design solutions for repairs.

2025-07-10 13:00 - 14:00
Sustainable Building Envelope Performance with Self-Sealing Fasteners & Anchors
1.0 IIBEC credit and 1.0 GBCI credit
Sustainable building envelopes demand high performance from and proper installation of continuous insulation and air, water, and vapor control layers. What happens when thousands of holes are made in these materials as they are installed with blind fasteners, one layer on top of another by different subcontractors? Sequencing issues can generally not be avoided; instead, this course focuses on self-sealing fasteners as a solution to avoid damage and thermal bridging in insulation and control layers. Various fasteners and anchors are described, and recommendations are presented for how to specify and what testing data to look for.
Learning Objectives:

Describe the functions of a wall and the air, water, vapor, and thermal control layers that are essential to sustainable, energy-efficient buildings without excessive moisture penetration.
Explain how fastener penetrations can cause damage and permit air and water leaks through control layers, resulting in diminished moisture management and energy efficiency of the building envelope.
Select fasteners and anchors capable of self-sealing to manage moisture, increase energy efficiency, and ensure sustainable thermal performance of the building envelope.
Discuss strategies to easily specify fasteners and anchors tested in complete wall assemblies, including cladding attachment solutions to ensure sustainable long-term building envelope performance.

Path to Net Zero: Beyond Handing Over the Keys 1.0 CEU/HSW
2025-07-17 13:00 - 14:00
Path to Net Zero: Beyond Handing Over the Keys
Net Zero is not a pass/fail scenario. We are designing our buildings to be able to make a net positive outcome, but if the true operational impacts are not baked into the design are these buildings being set up for failure? Do we have the opportunity to fine tune the operations and set points through partnerships to meet the design intent or is it too late? What if we can time travel back to the beginning and include key stakeholders in the goal setting? This session will present real world net zero design project examples pass and fail scenarios. The lessons learned, optimized process, and importance of communication. We will review why projects are not meeting their net zero objectives and what we can do to course correct. We will review the examples of successful delivery process and the players roles to make this project a success. This team will present post occupancy solutions like Whole Building Airtightness, deep data analysis, and predictive modeling solutions. The team will express the value of the Owners Project Requirements and demonstrate how key facility operators are to ensure net zero goals are met.
Learning Objectives:

Explore the challenges of pursuing Net Zero and how a well-designed building does not always operate as expected.
Discuss real-world examples of a Net Zero Energy designed project.
Investigate how to assess and refine strategies for post-occupancy performance.
Describe lessons learned from Net Zero challenges to help plan future building design and operation protocols.
