Building Envelope Horror Stories will take in depth look at the problems faced by Calgary’s Condominiums over the past few years. Problems that are starting to make Vancouver’s leaky condo crisis of the 1990’s seem tame by comparison!  

 

Attendees will gain valuable insights into the origins of the major issues affecting building envelopes and their ultimate impact on the structure of the buildings.

 

We will also look into the process for investigation, evaluation of findings, recommendations and options for repairs as well as a real case study that look at the full gambit of the problem, including litigation, insurance, special assessments, financing options available, etc.

 

This presentation will be well suited to professionals serving the condo industry, including lawyers, property managers, developers, contractors, building officials as well as condominium unit owners, as it the owners, ultimately, who have to deal with the results of a system that has lead to these widespread problems.
