Building Envelopes

The building envelope is the physical separator between the interior and the exterior environments of a building. It serves as the outer shell to help maintain the indoor environment and facilitate its climate control. The physical components of the envelope include the foundation, roof, walls, doors and windows. The dimensions, performance and compatibility of materials, fabrication process and details, their connections and interactions are the main factors that determine the effectiveness and durability of the building enclosure system.

North Pacific Erectors, Inc. has years of experience as a general contractor with a wide variety of building envelopes, including:
