Insulated Metal Panels: All-In-One Air and Water Barrier

Earn 1 AIA HSW LU.

Ideal for both retrofits and new construction as an all-in-one air and water barrier with continuous insulation, roof and wall insulated metal panels deliver a plethora of performance, erection, durability, and aesthetic benefits

Learning Objectives:

• Identify the role of prefabricated insulated metal panels (IMPs) as all-in-one water and air barrier enclosure with continuous insulation.
• Compare the construction benefits that IMPs deliver via a more simplified, cost-effective, and time-efficient erection process in addition to enhanced safety and less required manpower in the field.
• Describe the key full building enclosure, structural, and fire-performance attributes of IMPs.
• Explore the versatility and performance attributes of IMPs for retrofits and recladding.
