Speaking and Teaching

Christine Williamson teaches architects, builders, developers, owners, contractors, and other building industry professionals about building science and construction, especially as they apply to avoiding building failures such as leaks, corrosion, mold, rot, odors, poor indoor air quality, and energy inefficiency. She teaches about both residential and commercial construction in all climates.

Christine teaches in-person at architecture and building industry conferences and also online, here.

Design Charrette

While each design is unique, an architect’s portfolio will typically include only a limited number of foundation systems, wall assemblies, roof assemblies, and window details. Christine Williamson works with architects to review their most common assemblies and details, helping firms to make an honest assessment of their risk and to make adjustments to these assemblies and details as necessary. Typically, a firm will share two or three representative drawing sets and project photos, and identify any specific areas of concern in advance of a day-long charrette in which these details and assemblies are reviewed and altered.
