With the emergence of environmental, social, and governance reporting, companies are working rigorously to identify, assess, and reduce their greenhouse gas emissions.

Commercial building envelope projects are crucial for overall success. Given its importance, it’s easy to see why supply chain shortages could significantly impact commercial project timelines. Here’s a closer look at the extent of the problem and, more importantly, how experts can adapt to the issue.

Adding traditional solar has been the go-to solution for renewable energy, but what if other passive areas of the building envelope could be used more intelligently as well? One Silicon Valley company is doing just that. We asked Veeral Hardev, VP of Strategy at Ubiquitous Energy, what he thought about these changes. 

How do you choose and what is the best way to reach your goals? What role does analytics play in helping to achieve these certifications?

The Spring 2022 edition is jammed packed with technical articles describing the challenges of meeting increasingly stringent standards to support energy-efficient building construction. 

Louvers improve overall building resiliency, occupant health and can contribute to LEED and decarbonization goals.

For roofs with large surface areas, the potential for large overburden installations, such as solar, vegetative roofing, or amenity decks can be exceptional.

Protect your building envelope with confidence. Learn how an integrated gypsum sheathing system creates a WRB/AB that can help improve design integrity, increase installation efficiency, and achieve faster dry-in.

3D printing with prefabrication provides superior capabilities and timeline reduction, changing the conversation about building envelope design.

The pursuit of elegant building enclosure design is ever-growing, particularly for aluminum-framed curtain wall systems. Where these curtain wall systems transition to horizontal roof systems, designers have long sought to minimize the visual impact of these conditions by subtly concealing them.
