Building Science
This series of videos focuses on building science - primarily, understanding the basic principles of air and water movement throughout a building, and learning how inadequate control of air and water within the structure can create problems.
In the U.S., construction professionals spend more than $9 billion each year on construction defects litigation, mostly due to water and moisture problems. In these videos, building science expert Steve Easley highlights examples of some of the design and installation mistakes that cause moisture problems in commercial structures.
The manner in which building designers and contractors control air and moisture within the building envelope ultimately determines the building's performance. Good design can avoid most problems. However, construction assembly mistakes often overrule good design or even exacerbate the problem of an inadequate design detail, leading to or even causing moisture damage in a structure. Learn how smart design and proper component assembly reduces and even eliminates problems caused by mold and moisture within a commercial structure.
