CEU Course

This program is designed to provide the design community with an understanding of how energy efficiency impacts water management in wall systems and how to address the control layers of the envelope.

The presentation will cover building science, code for bulk water, air, thermal, and vapor, and practical solutions for WRBs, drainage, and flashing.

After attending this seminar, you will be able to:

1. Understand how energy efficiency trends impact water management in wall systems
2. Understand science and code requirements for water management in residential wood frame wall assemblies
3. Explore the performance of key water management wall assembly components, including water-resistive barriers and flashing
4. Identify moisture management implications of air leakage and vapor diffusion
