2 Houston IAQA Building Science and Imperfection: Managing Risk in Building Enclosures October 16, 2015 Five Approaches to Risk Mitigation in Building Enclosures 1. Buildings are complicated 2. Think in terms of functions, not products 3. Water shedding is different than waterproofing 4. Decide what is inside and what is outside 5. Mock-ups and pre-installation meetings are really important Construction time throughout history Notre Dame de Paris completed 1345 Johnny Appleseed Cronin buildingscience.com photo by Gavin Malavolta, 2 of 16

5 Diversity of building types Buildings are complicated. - David Shrigley, The Essential David Shrigley Cronin buildingscience.com 5 of 16
6 Think in terms of functions, not products Basic Enclosure Functions* Support: resist and transfer physical forces Control: control mass and energy flows Rain and soil moisture (drainage plane, capillary break, etc.) Air (continuous air barrier) Heat (continuous layer of insulation) Vapor (balance of wetting & drying) Finish: interior and exterior surfaces for people * Text quoted from John Straube The Perfect Wall Cladding Control Layers Structure Cronin buildingscience.com 6 of 16
7 the perfect slab and the perfect roof Most walls are not the Perfect Wall Maintain continuity of the control layers Identify locations of cold surfaces Evaluate the wetting & drying potential of moisture sensitive materials Cronin buildingscience.com 7 of 16
