Single-Skin Metal Panels for Pressure-Equalized Rainscreen (PER) Applications
About the Provider
We aspire to reshape the boundaries of architectural potential, seamlessly blending innovation and sustainability. Our commitment goes beyond design, striving to inspire a harmonious coexistence between structures and the environment for a brighter, better tomorrow.
Learning Objectives:
- Compare the performance attributes of different types of metal cladding exterior panels to determine how metal panel wall systems can protect a building’s structural components, reduce heat loss, eliminate moisture issues, and maintain indoor environmental quality.
- Identify the testing methods established by the American Architectural Manufacturers Association (AAMA) for rainscreen systems to determine whether a wall system meets the requirements for wind loads, fire resistance, and minimizing air and water infiltration.
- Discuss the basics of detailing climate-appropriate single-skin metal panel PER wall assemblies in order to improve the energy efficiency of a wall system and increase occupant comfort.
- Specify a metal panel with a suitable finish for a single-skin metal panel PER wall assembly to meet a building’s projected cost, thermal control requirements, and maintenance life-cycle needs.
