This presentation will outline the general use of ultrasonic measurement devices, discuss considerations related to in-situ measurements and substrate impacts, and present preliminary findings along with planned next steps for […]

“Systems thinking” is a term that is discussed at times in Building Science. But what if systems thinking asks us to consider more factors in the long term viability of […]

This course examines how modern building codes and airtight construction practices are increasing the importance of moisture-aware roof design in cold-climate environments. Participants will explore building code requirements and the […]

Thermal innovations are necessary as energy codes evolve. In this seminar, we discuss innovative design strategies to address thermal bridges in wall assemblies and the impact they have on air […]

These terms are often described as simple—so why is there so much confusion? This presentation explains what air barriers, vapor barriers, and water-resistive barriers are, and when a single material […]
