Air Barrier Requirements for New Construction
Credits: 1LU
Live
Air barriers consist of several parts which, together, make up a system that is air-impermeable. The Air Barrier Association of America explains that simply installing an air impermeable material in a building is not enough to ensure an air barrier. This is the case because “to achieve an airtight building enclosure you need to join the various air barrier materials together using an air barrier accessory.”
