WHO WE ARE

WE ARE A NON PROFIT SOCIETY DEDICATED TO THE PROMOTION OF BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE BUILDING ENVELOPE

The Building Envelope incorporates all of the roofs, walls, windows, floors and foundations that enclose the indoor environment of a building.

ABEC is interested in design, construction, performance, evaluation, testing, renovation, restoration and maintenance of building envelopes.
