This is where the building science rubber meets the architect’s road. Steve uses his many high-performance projects to show how high performance is translated into actual assemblies, with real materials, and with tried-and-true project management done cooperatively with the architect and builder. 

This one-hour webinar explains requirements for mechanical ventilation for single-family homes and options for code compliance. The class will also explore best practice options by climate zone and will discuss common ventilation installation mistakes.

The building science principles forming the foundation for high performance are how heat moves, how moisture moves, and how the two always work together. 

In this webinar, we will teach attendees about the specifics of pre-drywall inspections and testing. We will discuss the value of third-party pre-drywall inspections and testing for builders and raters, and how they can result in reduced callbacks. We will also examine how this aspect of the rating process has become increasingly important for consistency and defensibility for builders who choose an ERI Path for code compliance.
