Determining the best system for managing moisture can be challenging. Many factors such as climate, cladding, and cost should be considered when designing a sustainable wall. This course explores those factors, as well as trends in building codes and best practices. 

This class will recognize the integral role of a gap within the exterior wall; understand the performance characteristics of drainable housewrap and rainscreen systems; understand the selection criteria to consider when designing for moisture management in wall systems; determine the appropriate ways to employ draining and drying principles for a variety of cladding systems.
