Designing with Modern EIFS
This course introduces EIFS and explores how today, it is one of the few truly complete, engineered exterior wall cladding systems available, providing all control layers, long term resiliency, and a wide variety of aesthetics options.
There are many choices of exterior wall cladding systems to choose from. Design professionals may have heard of EIFS, unaware that today’s systems are quite different from the original system of the late 1950’s. EIFS continuously evolves to remain ahead of building and energy codes, includes new technologies and affords maximum design freedom to architects.

A Complete Approach to Rainscreen Design
This course presents the complete design approach to rainscreens and explains why rainscreens are an important topic for the building envelope and enclosures. This course enforces the use of control layers to maximize the use of a drained, backed ventilated rainscreen system performance for both new and existing buildings. Audience will learn and be able to identify different rainscreen technologies and how a complete approach is beneficial to a building’s performance, by ensuring compatibility among components and understand the relationship of control layers of the exterior wall assembly for health and safety of occupants. Lastly, the course will review this approach using real-world rainscreen systems..
