As the physical separator between the building’s interior and exterior, the building envelope works with the structure’s climate control systems to maintain the indoor environment’s temperature. In order to build an effective building envelope, it is necessary to understand how the different components (roof, walls, and waterproofing) work together. This term, or category, has been used interchangeably with exterior wall consulting.
