Continuous Insulation Compared within 8 Steel Stud Wall Assemblies
Presenter: George David Schoenhard, AIA – Manager & Principal, DSS-Philly
Continuous Insulation, while required by the energy code, presents challenges integrating it with the overall wall-assembly’s design, performance and construction. This program at the intermediate to advanced level, comparatively studies eight steel-stud commercial wall assemblies with considerations including: Overview of the Assembly components, High-performance Net-Zero Energy, WUFI thermal and moisture modeling comparisons, NFPA 285 and fire-rated compliance.
