Au Québec, où les hivers rigoureux, les cycles de gel-dégel et l’humidité exercent une pression considérable sur les bâtiments, la gestion de l’exposition par l’enveloppe du bâtiment constitue une fonction essentielle de la conception. Limiter l’infiltration du radon, prévenir les dommages causés par les inondations, atténuer les risques d’incendie et contrôler les mouvements d’air et d’humidité sont également essentiels; ensemble, ces mesures améliorent la sécurité des occupants et la durabilité.

Maxime Duzyk, directeur international senior, Science du bâtiment et ingénierie chez HSB, explique dans le magazine Formes comment un bâtiment plus sécuritaire commence par son enveloppe :

In Quebec, where frigid winters, freeze-thaw cycles, and humidity put immense pressure onto buildings, managing exposure through the building envelope is a central design function. Limiting radon entry, preventing flood damage, mitigating fire risk, and controlling air and moisture movement are also key – together improving occupant safety and sustainability.

Maxime Duzyk HBS Senior Global Director of Building Science and Engineering, explains how a safer building begins with its envelope in Formes Magazine (article in French only:
