Troubleshooting the building enclosure is a broad subject with many facets. Contributions from the audience provided a well-rounded perspective with representation from designers, contractors, and manufacturers alike. Chapter members and guests, regardless of their stake in the industry, provided insightful input which captured the essence of why IIBEC’s diverse membership is one of its strongest qualities.
