What is Building Science?

CR-BPS offers three core service areas, including Building Science. In simple terms, what is Building Science and what is a Building Scientist?

Building Science Defined

Building Science utilizes a unique mix of physics, material science, meteorology, construction technology, physiology, engineering and design.

Building Scientist uses this collection of scientific knowledge and experience and applies it to the analysis and control of the physical phenomena affecting buildings and architecture.

The building science of a project refers to strategies implemented in the general and specific arrangement of building materials and component-assemblies. The practical outcome of building science knowledge is reflected in the design of the architectural details of the building enclosure and ultimately in the long-term performance of the building enclosure.
