Thank you

This live web event has ended. Thank you for attending.

Description

About This Program

This presentation will cover a detailed explanation of the challenges and solutions facing flashings and transition membranes throughout the building envelope. Attendees will gain a thorough understanding of flexible self-adhering stainless-steel membranes, silicone rubber extrusions, and liquid applied flashing. The presentation will emphasize the importance of compatibility and explain proper installation techniques.

Session Takeaways

Identify critical building envelope transitions and solutions
Provide an understanding of how silicone rubber extrusions function and perform, and how these engineered transition systems can minimize risk and maximize control of air and moisture infiltration.
Attendees will learn how these systems are engineered, how they can be incorporated in designs, and the added value they bring to a building enclosure system when used to transition at critical connections with the potential for increased liability.
Discuss advantages of liquid applied flashings and proper installation
