The building envelope is
equivalent to the skin of a building. In essence,a structure must be enveloped
from top to bottom to prevent intrusion from nature’s elements into interior spaces
and to protect the structural components from weathering and deterioration. Envelopes
complete numerous functions in a building’s life cycle,including
● Preventing water infiltration
● Controlling water vapor transmission
● Controlling heat and air flow,into and out of interior spaces
● Providing a shield against ultraviolet rays and excessive sunlight
● Limiting noise infiltration
● Providing structural integrity for the façade components
● Providing necessary aesthetics
● Preventing of mold formation and growth
