description The building envelope is the skin that surrounds a building, providing protection for the structure, interiors, and occupants from the degrading elements of nature. Protection may also be provided against manmade events, such as vandalism, bomb blasts, etc. The building facade includes the vertical elements of the building envelope, and horizontal and sloping surfaces can be included in the facade as well. On a new building, the cost of the building envelope is generally 20 to 25 percent of the total building cost, and can be higher if certain design criteria is met, such as storm or blast resistance. Statistics show that more than 50 percent of construction litigation is related to envelope deficiencies.
