Updates, a new technical series on construction science and technology, has been launched by the National Research Council's Institute for Research in cons truction.
Targeted at architects, engineers,
technologIsts, specifiers, property
managers, builders and building officials, the new series is designed to provide valuable technical information these practitioners need in order to improve building perfonnance and solve problems. "Construction Technology Updates are similar to Our Canadian Building Digests that were so popular,o said Jim Gallagher, head of IRC's Publication Service. "They are practical, easy to read and are written
by leading researchers who are
investigating the problems the
construction industry faces every day. " The new series deals with buildings and structures, covering such topics as leaking roofs, moisture in walls, design of air barriers, heat ioss, rehabilitation of old buildings, deteriorating concrete, indoor air quality, fire protection and noise control. At only four to six pages, Updates are long enough to inform but short enough for a busy person to read in a single sitting.
"Each Update covers a single topic and contains enough fundamental infonnation to enable practitioners to understand the science underlying a particular problem and its solution," Gallagher said. "ThiS will also help them explain to their clients why they are recommending one solution over another."
With numerous diagrams, lIiustrations and tables, the new series will help
practitioners resolve performance
problems, improve their designs,
understand code requirements and apply building science principles.
Construction Technology Updates are available by subscription. For a brochure and order form, call toll·free 1·800·672· 7990. (In Ottawa·Huli and outside Canada, call 6 I 3'993-2463.)
