Recent and proposed revisions to building codes and performance standards, as well as publications authored by independent research groups, are expected to have a major impact on the importance of the building envelope. This paper analyzes these publications and other relevant research and their effects on the design and construction disciplines. It will examine the function and common faults of the building envelope in terms of energy efficiency and outline field-proven methodologies for testing and solving building envelope problems. It will also provide tools for making the business case for envelope upgrades.
