How to Meet California's High Performance Walls and Attic Requirements (Room Lobby, Room 104-105)

31 May 19
10:00 AM - 11:00 AM

Tracks: Affordability Solutions, Included with PCBC Passport, Technology & Automation

This class examines how to design and build high performance wall and attic assemblies that delivery energy efficiency and do not lead to water and moisture failures. Steve Easley will use pictures from real world installations to illustrate the do’s and don’ts to building high performance walls assemblies that are affordable and cost effective. This interactive class is designed to sort through the myriad of insulation system options in order to match the best insulation system to the type of structure. Energy codes are requiring specific installation protocols for ensuring true insulation performance. This class also will explain installation and air barrier requirements by codes in order to develop appropriate specifications to meet these new codes and create buildings that perform with better real world results.
