What to Know About Building Enclosure Design

Similar to how a winter jacket protects you from the elements, a building envelope protects the contents of a building throughout its lifespan. A successful building enclosure design separates the interior of the building from the exterior while controlling the exchange of heat, air, and moisture between the two. It can extend the life of building components and help keep occupants comfortable year-round.
