CARP 125 - Spray Applied Thermal Barrier

3 Credits
The overall purpose of the class is to develop the apprentice carpenters’ ability to select and use proper means and methods to install thermal barriers within building envelope systems, specifically those requiring the use of sprayer equipment. Fundamentals of spray applied thermal insulators, application techniques, and sprayer maintenance, will be covered. Three major conceptual schemes comprise the focus of this course: planning thermal barrier installation, managing project variables, and implementing equipment maintenance routines. Although the major emphasis of the course will be on thermal barriers, views on technique by class participants will be considered as well.
