Al Cobb - The Durability of SIPs
Manage episode 457272019 series 3600607
In this SIP BITS episode, Al Cobb, Director of SIPschool in Shenandoah, CEO of PanelWrights and a Master SIP Builder at SIPA, explores the greatest durability factors that make SIPs a preferred building solution for residential and light construction projects. Al is an internationally respected expert on SIPs, offering consulting services and guidance to companies beginning their SIP journey, single individuals independently training or professionals experienced with panelized building system practices.
Al takes a detailed look at the inevitability of moisture entering a structure and the ability of that structure to actively dry. It's not about a "home that breathes". The very low air-leakage rates of a SIP structure enhances the rest of SIPs' abilities: thermal performance, drying capacity, indoor air quality - and these factors make SIPs a high-performance buiding product.
