Mitigating Thermal Bridging with Fluid-Applied Coatings
Learn about fluid-applied coatings & building envelope performance.
Description:
Thermal bridging can have a significant impact on a building envelope’s performance. This course discusses using fluid-applied coatings to minimize thermal bridging in new and existing buildings.
Learning objectives
- Provide an overview of aerogel particles and fluid-applied coatings, and their ability to reduce condensation
- Explain where thermal bridging is a concern on the interior and exterior of buildings
- Demonstrate the benefits of using a fluid-applied coating to address indoor air quality issues and reduce thermal bridging
- Discuss the standards that address the need for continuous insulation (i.e. ASHRAE 90.1-2010)
