Project development and documentation is of little consequence if the materials selected and the building assemblies specified are not installed correctly in the actual building. Site Quality Assurance Programs (QAP) integrate into the project management, construction and evaluation process to enhance the chances of achieving properly installed complete wall components to improve the performance and health of a building and its occupants, reduce energy costs, benefit the environment, and reduce moisture damage. Important elements of QAP are reviewed including pre-qualifying and educating contractors and installers on proper installation processes, documentation and verification via independent audits.
