Available In: OR, WA, ID, MT, WY, BC, AK
This AIA-accredited course explores the design and performance of drained and back-ventilated rainscreen (DBVR) wall assemblies. Attendees will learn how cladding, attachment systems, ventilation cavities, insulation, and air and water barriers work together to manage moisture, improve durability, and support thermal and fire performance. The session also examines high-density fiber cement (HDFC) panels, common façade materials, design challenges, and key engineering considerations for creating coordinated, high-performance rainscreen systems.
