Papers from an April 2004 symposium provide information on window- wall product materials, installation, and testing, for architects, specifiers, installers, and building owners. Areas covered include material permeability, the ability of self-adhered materials to maintain their original adhesion properties, and the importance of drying in walls. The book will help readers write specifications, create or interpret standards, evaluate materials for product selection, and recommend changes to building codes. There is no subject index.
