What is Building Enclosure Commissioning (BECx)?
Building Enclosure Commissioning (BECx) is an emerging service with a quality focused process of evaluating and verifying the design, construction, and maintenance of the building envelope.
As projects have become more complex and systems more efficient, the importance of providing well-designed and properly installed building envelopes has become even more critical to the energy efficiency, occupant’s health, and building’s life expectancy.
