This technical training session will explain four (4) high-performance wall-assemblies recently published by NRCan in the LEEP NZE Wall Guide Series. It will discuss their use for both new construction and renovation. The ‘Wall Selection Guide’ and ‘Appendix A’ & ‘B’ provide additional information to help builders, designers, and energy advisors compare options and better understand the building science inside each wall-assembly.
The LEEP NZE Walls allow flexibility for a wide range of R-values, suitable for tiered code compliance, and for every climate zone in Canada.
Topics include: insulation types and ratios, vapour permeable vs. impermeable materials, “critical barriers”, effective R-value, long fasteners, furring strips, rainscreen systems, window installation in thicker walls, and more. 3D illustrations and Construction Details are included for each wall-type.
The seven (7) PDF guides are available for free download from NRCan. Search: “LEEP Technology Guides” or click HERE.
Webinar attendees have a chance TO WIN a box set of all the Guides.
