Continuous Insulation: 8 Wall Assembly Comparisons (Advanced)
About This Webinar
Continuous Insulation, while required by the energy code, presents challenges integrating it with the overall wall-assembly’s design, performance and construction. This second of two programs at the advanced level, comparatively studies eight commercial wall assemblies with considerations including: Overview of the Assembly components, NFPA 285 compliance and fire rated options, WUFI thermal and moisture modeling comparisons, Weight of the cladding as structural comparisons, and Construction cost along with production speed as comparative rankings.
Agenda
- OVERVIEW of EIGHT ASSEMBLES: Understand the rationale of the eight commercial steel studframed wall-assemblies and how they compare with their types of continuous and total insulation, sheathing, air, water and vapor control layers.
- 285 & RATED: Compare how each assembly complies with NFPA 285 requirements and optional fireratings.
- WUFI: Understand how each assembly compares utilizing WUFI Hygrothermic (thermal and moisture) evaluations over four climate seasons chosen for Climate Zone 5 (due to the requirement for an interior vapor retarder).
- WEIGHT OF CLADDING: Compare how the wall’s assembly can affect the structural cladding load capacity of each.
- COST & PRODUCTION RANKINGS: Compare the eight wall assemblies by their constructed cost, their daily production speed and by their combined rankings.
