Building Envelope Engineer - Thermal, Water and Air Barrier Design
USD 250–750
About the project
Building Envelope Engineer - Thermal, Water and Air Barrier Design PROJECT DESCRIPTION We seek an enclosure / building-science engineer to investigate a weather-tight, energy-conscious 10-inch-deep STEEL ONE modular wall assembly. SCOPE OF WORK • Propose preliminary wall layer arrangements and locations for air, water, thermal and vapor control. • Evaluate steel/aluminum thermal bridging and thermal-break concepts. • Develop conceptual rainscreen drainage, joint sealing and flashing strategies. • Identify condensation, dew-point, serviceability and climate-specific design issues. • Define required performance modeling and air/water infiltration testing. EXPECTED DELIVERABLES • Concept wall sections and typical joint / opening interface sketches. • Initial thermal and hygrothermal risk register with assumptions. • Preliminary performance criteria and verification/test plan. • Coordination notes for the structural and façade engineers. REQUIRED EXPERIENCE • Building envelope consulting or building-science engineering experience. • Experience with metal-framed walls, thermal bridging and moisture analysis. • Familiarity with applicable energy-code requirements and enclosure testing. • Ability to distinguish conceptual details from tested assemblies. HOW TO APPLY Include relevant enclosure projects, modeling tools used and your suggested design/testing milestones. PROJECT TERMS Remote collaboration; initial scope is a milestone-based paid engineering study. Specify your fee and timeline. All output should be clearly labeled by revision. Confidentiality and intellectual-property assignment terms will be agreed before detailed technical disclosure.
