About the Presenter: Mike Wilson, M.Eng, P.Eng, BEP, RDH Building Engineering

Mike Wilson is a Principal, Senior Building Science Specialist and Manager of the Victoria office of RDH Building Engineering Ltd. RDH focuses on the integration of building science engineering, architecture, construction management, and risk assessment services for the building enclosure on new construction projects and existing buildings with office in British Columbia, Washington, and Oregon. Mike has practiced as a licensed engineer for over 20 years in the provinces of Nova Scotia, Ontario and British Columbia; providing consulting services in new construction, failure investigations, performance assessments, litigation support, and building rehabilitation.

About the Topic:

Mike’s presentation will provide an overview of the recently published APEGBC Building Enclosure Practice Guidelines. The guidelines were developed by the Building Envelope Committee of APEGBC, of which Mike is a member. The committee reviewed the original 1999 document and other relevant documents, such as AIBC’s Bulletin 34, endorsed by APEGBC, and the published document was reviewed and endorsed by both APEGBC and AIBC governing councils. The guidelines set out the standards of practice that a Building Enclosure Engineer should follow and meet when providing building enclosure engineering services for building projects. The guidelines reflect the current state of practice in jurisdictions where application of independent building science expertise is both mandatory and mature. The logic and contents of the guideline should be of interest to practitioners and building code authorities. Of particular interest to all stakeholders in the industry is the recommended practice associated with letters of assurance in relationship to enclosure engineering.
