Research Report - Study of High-Rise Envelope Performance in the Coastal Climate of British Columbia

This 2001 study by RDH Building Engineering Ltd. identifies causal relationships that have resulted in building envelope issues and successes, in non-combustible high-rise residential buildings in the coastal climate area of B.C. This is done by correlating building envelope performance with sources of moisture, along with features of design and construction of assemblies and details.
