Proper moisture control is essential to designing and building durable, lasting masonry structures. Join us as we discuss the importance of flashing and components for masonry wall assemblies. Together, we’ll learn how to mitigate common moisture-related issues like mold, corrosion, staining, and cracking through proper detailing and construction. You’ll walk away better equipped to approach flashing system materials and strategies to help you create an optimal moisture control design and installation.
