Program:

Detailing Air Barriers

While most understand the necessity of an air barrier system, often the installation details and system design are less clear. The course provides an overview of specific installation techniques for different air barrier material types including standard details of rough openings, roof-to-wall connections, and transitional joints between different building materials. In addition, this course reviews code compliance, material selection, specifications, and tricky conditions.
