the buildingenvelope
The Building Envelope is essentially the ¨skin¨ of a building. The quality ofthe Building Envelope will determine how well a building will function andits life span.
The requirements of the Building Envelope will differ with the climate ofthe area. In areas where insulation is necessary the following requirementshave been identified by Dr. Neil Hutcheon in the Canadian Building Digest –CBD48 (1963).
1. control heat flow;2. control air flow;3. control water vapor flow;4. control rain penetration;5. control light, solar and other radiation;6. control noise;7. control fire;8. provide strength and rigidity;9. be durable;
10. be aesthetically pleasing; and11. be economical.
Examination of building problems clearly indicates that the requirementsof the Building Envelope most in need of solutions are air flow, watervapor flow, rain penetration, and durability.
Building Envelope failures are evident as rain penetration, high energycosts, early deterioration of building components, and Sick BuildingSyndrome/ Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) problems.
At Bakor we understand the principles of providing integrated systems, with our high quality products, to ensure superior building performance.
This translates into Bakor roofing, air barrier and waterproofing systems and the expertise to integrate these systems.

The most important aspect of any green roof isits ability to protect your building by keepingwater out. That is why the Bakor Green Roofsystem incorporates our premier highperformance Bakor 790-11 hot rubberizedasphalt membrane. Trusted since 1967, thissystem provides a joint-free, fully adheredmembrane that is ideal for concrete decks.
For extensive or intensive systems, Bakor canlet you choose from multiple growingmediums, vegetation or landscaping features.
Like all warranted Bakor systems, it is appliedby Bakor trained and qualified contractors.

SEBS Polymer Modified Asphalt greatlyimproves the performance of a built-uproofing system.
Bakor 890-12 mopping asphalt has more than75 times the elongation of an unmodifiedCSA Type 3 asphalt and more than four timesgreater tensile strength. This allows the asphalt to stretch and react with normalstructural shifts and temperature cycles. The asphalt is naturally adhesive withexcellent bonding to fiberglass felts andgranular or gravel surfacings.
Maintained flexibility is far superior to theFrasse Breaking Point of unmodified CSAType 3. ISO

No stink. With modified PLUS® SA, there is no disturbing odor.
No torch. There is no open flame, reduces risk of fire.
No sweat. It is self-adhering, so much safer and easierto apply.
Bakor, with its leading position in self-adhesive bitumen technology, developed the modified PLUS®
SA Roofing System to provide all the advantages ofmodified bitumen while reducing the concerns related to more conventional methods of application.modified PLUS® SA eliminates the odor of roofingasphalt and the risk of fire from torching. It is that friendly.

Air leakage is the uncontrolled movement
of air through the building envelope. This
movement of air is caused by wind, stack
effect and fan pressures. The combined
forces are significant and must be resisted
by the air barrier system. Uncontrolled air
leakage translates into:
• Uncontrolled heat loss
• Uncontrolled cooling costs
• Increased humidification needs
• Condensation problems
• Mold and serious indoorair quality concerns
These issues have proven to be
significant enough to effect building code
changes. Air barrier technology is a
rapidly growing concern for all designers
and specifiers, and Bakor leads the
industry with over 15 years of experience
with successful, high profile projects.
With over 12 completely integrated
systems, our architectural services team
can assist building owners, designers and
specifiers to create an effective plane of
air tightness throughout the building
envelope.
