This course details the benefits and selection process of Magnesium Oxide (MgO) sheathing in multifamily and commercial construction. MgO sheathing offers structural, fire, and other properties that enable architects and designers to simplify the design and installation of building enclosures. Comparisons of MgO sheathing versus traditional sheathing materials such as gypsum are included.
Understand MgO sheathing’s core construction benefits of structural strength, weather barrier performance, and fire-resistance.
Learn how to interpret the structural and fire resistance ratings, approvals, and certifications of MgO sheathing through ASTM E330, ASTM E119, NFPA 285, and other life safety testing standards.
Understand the different types of MgO sheathing and how to select the right one for your project.
Learn how to design building enclosure assemblies with MgO sheathing to meet structural and fire resistance standards in multifamily and commercial buildings.
