Abstract
~ Vancouver’s &dquo;unique&dquo; climate ~ zoning by-laws ~ use of -face sealed wall systems -polyethylene vapour barriers (with or without sealing) -acryhc coatings on stucco -welded wire mesh instead of expanded metal to reinforce stucco -polyolefin sheathing membranes instead of building paper -oriented strand board (OSB) instead of plywood sheathing -wet wood during construction -poor quality windows
