Online Design Reviews and Design Workshops
Air Tightness Consultancy is often required if you have a low air tightness specification of 5m3/(h.m2) or you have multiple contractual and design interfaces.
Early-stage design reviews can identify any air leakage risks and recommend cost-effective design solutions to achieve air tightness targets. Stroma Built Environment offers desktop and on-site design reviews, as well as pre-test inspections to ensure compliance before final air testing and handover.
We’ll review your architectural drawings to identify any design faults and potential risks that may affect your development’s air tightness. Our Air Tightness Consultants will provide recommendations to improve the project’s design intent and overall air tightness approach for final compliance.
Our consultant will visit your site to attend a design workshop alongside your project team. The on-site design workshop will examine the key details of your air barrier design to highlight potential weaknesses or risks at an early stage to recommend improvements to achieve compliance, whilst saving costs.
Before final air tightness testing, we’ll arrange a pre-test site inspection to review the air barrier against the design and as-built details. The inspection will examine the air barrier details to identify the potential risks of an air test failure in an illustrated report. Any remedial works can then be actioned to ensure your project is on course to pass its final air tightness testing.
Stroma Built Environment offers complementary services for Air Tightness Consultancy
and Design Reviews to reduce procurement costs, gain project
efficiencies and achieve full compliance and sustainability targets for your project.
