Building Envelope
Over the last 9 years, GTA has provided building science and building envelope services to a variety of clients. This client list not only includes our own architectural clients, but also a variety of other architectural firms and developers in the Okanagan area. Both Garry Tomporowski and Mark Felt c.c.c.a. of GTA are involved in providing this service. Both have worked extensively in the building science and building envelope realm. Mark Felt has worked for such notable national firms as Morrison Hirschfield and RJC Engineering in a building envelope and building science capacity. GTA has an excellent rapport with the major warranty providers such as Travelers and National Home Warranty. We interact consistently with these organizations to provide additional and support services to not only Architectural Firms but also for our own clients in respect to building envelope issues.
GTA provides an ongoing consulting service as well as an investigative service to various clients and organizations as well as investigation of building envelope failures, providing remediation reports and recommendations. Further to this GTA is in the process of developing a maintenance protocol for its own projects as well as those of other consultants. (On the request of the warranty providers we can prepare a five year water ingress maintenance regime which not only mandates regular maintenance and observation of critical areas of the building envelope, but also provides guidance for undertaking these particular activities.)
The range of buildings includes single family homes over $1 million in value, to multi storied high rise residential complexes and hotels.
GTA works with clients and designing consultants to ensure that the constructability of these projects is not only realistic but effective and assures that the longevity and enjoyment of these structures is not compromised. GTA works in conjunction with the Architect of Record, by enhancing the services that they provide as a third party to the project.
The photo gallery will be posted shortly that illustrates various details and experiences that we have on a variety of projects.
