Content Description

How to Achieve Superior Building Envelope Performance in Rainscreen Wall Design, 2023
CEU: 0.15 | CEU Code: CT-EN-148005-0224

CENTRIA, a Nucor company The building envelope must withstand the effects of long-term exposure to the elements. This course explores rainscreen wall design and the control of hygrothermal loads. The traditional multicomponent backup wall assembly is compared with the single-component, insulated metal composite backup wall system, outlining key differences in design and construction and their overall effect on installation and performance. 90 minutes.

Learning Objectives

  • Summarize how to properly establish building envelope control layers to protect against the four hygrothermal loads in order to optimize energy efficiency, indoor air quality, and occupant comfort.
  • Describe the traditional multicomponent backup wall assembly and explain its challenges in relation to energy efficiency, installation, and long-term performance.
  • Explain how the design of the insulated composite backup wall system overcomes the challenges of traditional assemblies, contributing to ease of installation and overall thermal efficiency.
  • State how the pre-engineered insulated metal composite backup wall system can integrate with virtually any rainscreen material, allowing designers the freedom to mix and match rainscreen materials across the exterior.

Faculty BIO

Currently serving as the Definitions Committee Co-Chair for the Rainscreen Association in North America, Andrew has spent the last decade specializing in rainscreen systems and building enclosure. He has assisted in the design and development of innovative rainscreen assemblies, trained dozens of installers on how to handle, fabricate, and install various types of materials and systems, and provided hundreds of hours of continuing-education AIA courses centered around building science and rainscreen concepts.
