PRESENTATION: “The Building Envelope is Our Third Skin – Design, Build & Maintain it to Optimize Health, Safety & Welfare”, presented by Jason Kliwinski, AIA, LEED Fellow/Faculty

DESCRIPTION: The Building Envelope is our third skin. Clothing is our second and of course your actual skin is first. Building envelopes must provide a range of functions that include shelter, climate control, security and a healthy space all while looking good doing it. The Building Envelope is the first line of defense in protecting the health, safety and welfare of the public. Designing and maintaining the building envelope properly also has the single biggest impact on energy consumption & resiliency in any building. Just like your own skin, when there’s a problem you need to see a specialist like a dermatologist. Architects are the specialist when it comes to the building envelope. This session will explore the best options for a high performance building envelope across multiple markets and the emerging field of Building Envelope Commissioning to help diagnose and maintain them that any Architect should be able to provide and capitalize on for their clients.
