Building envelopes and the performance of buildings will be impacted by the next adoption of the state building codes. This roundtable will review the relationships between the building envelope, mechanical systems, building energy usage, and occupant health and comfort. Attendees will also gain an understanding of exterior wall construction challenges, new materials, trends, prefabrication, and innovation to help architects design an efficient building envelope.

Schnitgen and Shea will be joined by Mike Allen, EXO; Terry Diltz, Valley Interior Systems; Nestor Melnyk, AIA, LEED AP BD+C, MSA Design; and Nick Decker and Adam Marlman of Altiers AP. Zoë Gizara, AIA, MSP Design, will serve as the moderator.
