Building testing is as unique as each building that is built. This presentation shows applying air tightness testing requirements and protocol in unusual building environments with three case studies: a dry room with an unfortunate event, a LEED building with USACE specifications, and a historic building campus renovated into living units. Each case explores how to make construction testing work and the obstacles to overcome.
