On Demand In modern roofing systems, vapor retarders and air barriers do more than just minimize air leakage—they’re essential to maximizing performance and longevity. This engaging course dives into the next generation of moisture control: permeable vapor retarders and air barriers. Discover how these cutting-edge technologies are transforming low-slope roofing assemblies by improving energy efficiency, managing moisture, and boosting wind uplift resistance.

On-Demand This one-hour course will cover the lessons learned from over 20 case studies regarding Electronic Leak Detection (ELD) quality control testing as part of new construction, forensic testing in existing buildings with active leaks, and continuous moisture monitoring for conventional roofing. Participants will learn about the principles outlined in the ASTM Standard Guide D7877 and ASTM Standard Practice D8231 and will be able to identify common causes for moisture intrusion.
