Build a Better Wall

The Extruded Polystyrene Foam Association (XPSA) is here to help – with extruded polystyrene rigid foam (XPS) insulation products. Products that are strong, but versatile! When deployed effectively, these products may help home and commercial building owners reduce utility bills. At the same time, and for the same cost, XPS insulation used as a weather-resistant barrier can assist in ensuring your home or building minimizes the possibility for moisture-intrusion into the exterior walls and thus the subsequent damage that can occur as a consequence.

Builders, architects and code officials alike are constantly looking for ways to adopt practices that lead to energy-efficient and moisture-resistant buildings. People deserve the most comfortable, energy-efficient, moisture-resistant living and working environments you can give them.

The Objective Of This Course Is To Help Designers Understand:

  • To understand thermal performance in Commercial buildings constructed with steel stud/foam sheathing and brick veneer
