SUMMARY:IIBEC Northern California Chapter: Exterior Wall Technology & Science
DESCRIPTION:Build a stronger foundation in exterior wall technology with this comprehensive seminar presented by the Northern California Chapter of IIBEC.\nDesigned for design professionals who want to expand or strengthen their knowledge of exterior wall systems, this course introduces the essential terminology, concepts, materials, and design considerations that form the basis of effective exterior wall performance.\nParticipants will explore a broad range of topics, including exterior wall types and functions, moisture movement and psychometrics, building code requirements, wall penetrations, coatings and water repellents, sealants, and common design challenges. The course also examines how material selection, detailing, preparation, and installation can influence long-term wall performance.\nWhether you are expanding your expertise into exterior walls or already work with wall assemblies and want to deepen your technical understanding, this seminar provides practical knowledge you can apply to design, investigation, construction, and consulting work.\nIIBEC Core Competency: Exterior Wall\nKnowledge Level: Intermediate\nRecommended Prerequisite Knowledge\nParticipants should have a baseline understanding of general construction and wall assemblies, including foundation elements that support wall systems. Familiarity with terms and concepts such as **mass wall construction, curtainwall, storefront, fenestration, weather-resistive barriers (WRBs), and the International Building Code (IBC)** is recommended.\nLearning Objectives\nAt the conclusion of this seminar, participants will be able to:\n1. Explore key building code requirements applicable to exterior wall systems.\n2. Explain the proper use of coatings, water repellents, and sealants, including material selection, substrate preparation, and installation considerations.\n3. Discuss psychometrics and moisture movement and explain why moisture migration is critical to successful wall design.\n4. Identify appropriate design approaches for wall penetrations and recognize problems that can result from poor detailing.\nJoin fellow building enclosure professionals, architects, and engineers for an informative session designed to strengthen your understanding of exterior wall systems and the principles that contribute to durable, high-performing building enclosures.\n
