Build Science 201: Ep. 1 - Water Management: Protection

Описание: Welcome back to Build Science™! Matt and Steve kick-off the series discussing water management and protection; remember, water is the number 1 killer of buildings. They emphasize how different design elements, climates, and locations affect risk levels. Matt compares protection elements to wearing a raincoat and using an umbrella; different design elements provide varying levels of protection. Matt and Steve share a few examples, such as houses in coastal areas and modern architectural designs, to illustrate how overhangs, projections, and other protective features can reduce the risk of water damage. They stress the importance of risk assessment, considering not only the overall structure but also individual components like windows and walls. Ultimately, Matt and Steve emphasize the need to prioritize water protection, explaining that less risky designs provide more forgiveness, while riskier ones demand higher costs and precision. Utilize building science to avoid common mistakes through careful planning and protection strategies.
