Real-world building science.
Real-world building science.
No fluff.
Pull up a stool, grab a drink and some food, and get straight answers from Dr. John Straube (RDH Building Science | University of Waterloo).
Heads up: seats are literally limited. There are only so many stools - when they’re gone, they’re gone.
Register today before they’re taken.
This in‑person series is built for residential builders and contractors who want practical solutions they can use right now—not theory, not lectures that never make it back to the site.
In a relaxed, discussion‑driven setting, John breaks down what actually matters when it comes to continuous enclosure, durability, and performance—using real assemblies, hands‑on prototypes, and real questions from the room.
What you'll walk away with:
- Clear guidance on continuous enclosure and why it’s becoming non-negotiable
- Common moisture and performance issues hiding in walls, roofs, and transitions
- How to simplify enclosure decisions without sacrificing comfort or durability
- What upcoming code changes are signaling - and how to stay ahead
- Lessons from real projects, real mistakes, and real fixes
Why this is different:
- Built specifically for residential builders & contractors
- Real assemblies, hands-on examples, real questions
- Open conversation and peer learning
- Time to connect with fellow builders
This is building science the way builders want it: clear, credible, and immediately useful.
Expect open conversation, peer learning, and ideas you’ll be thinking about on your next site visit—followed by time to connect with fellow builders.
