BEC – Control Layer Fundamentals

Online Meeting

Join Building Enclosure Council Research Triangle for a presentation on the four major control layers of the building enclosure. Joseph Anetrella will explain the mechanisms of heat, air, bulk water and vapor and how they transport through building assemblies. This discussion will cover the importance of air barriers and continuous insulation as well as common installation challenges seen in the field. He will also present key strategies for achieving durable, energy-efficient, and thermally comfortable wall, roof and below grade assemblies.

Designer Handbook Series: Unitized Curtain Wall with BEC Research Triangle

Join BEC for a presentation on Unitized Curtain Wall assemblies. This presentation focuses on system components, performance variables, and early design processes involved in providing an efficient and coordinated unitized curtain wall design that can be successfully executed. We will discuss various solutions to handle unique design challenges and rigorous performance criteria for enhanced system performance. 

The Critical Aspect of Air and Water-Resistant Barriers within the Building Envelope

Join BEC for a presentation on the critical nature of the air barrier with an emphasis on how a structure interacts with the surrounding environment. Gain knowledge on marketplace trends, technological advancements, and the importance of specifying the correct air and water-resistive barrier for your project. We will discuss above-grade air and moisture movement,  air barrier definition and its purpose, types of air barriers, design considerations and common jobsite challenges. 

BEC-RT’s Fall Symposium

Join BEC-RT for the reboot of its annual symposium as it "peels back the layers" of what makes a high performing building enclosure with lectures spanning from "concept to construction."
