70-75 percent of the storm total falls within a 24 hour period.
In a little less than a month the Atlantic Hurricane Season begins. Every opening in the building envelope that hasn't had a curtainwall, storefront, door, or window installed properly is at risk of being a primary point of entry for wind driven rain.
The time to ensure that your project is protected and delivers a watertight building envelope to the owner is while construction is underway. Ensure your Division 8 Specifications call for verification testing. The ASTM E 1105 Field Test is your reputation's lifeline.
By including the professionals at Recon Independent Assessments in pre-construction meetings with the entire construction project team, testing early in the project to ensure that the interface between the substrates and the installed products is watertight, and testing as the project nears completion; the overall quality of the project can be better prepared for what Mother Nature might throw your way.
