CIBC Building Envelope Condition Assessment 
CIBC Building Envelope Condition Assessment, Morrison Hershfield 

Morrison Hershfield was able to provide our client with an understanding of the performance of the building envelope elements so that they could effectively budget for current and future repairs and replacements.  Additionally, Morrison Hershfield was able to provide the information necessary to limit liability in regards to the effect of envelope damage and potential mold growth.  Our client was very happy with the information they received, and is using it effectively to manage the branches in a lower risk environment.

Morrison Hershfield conducted assessments of four CIBC branches in Alberta.  For each of the buildings, Morrison Hershfield conducted visual and physical reviews associated with building envelope elements.  The numerous elements were visually reviewed in order to determine current condition, anticipated lifespan, and cost for future repairs within the defined study period.  Additionally, for each branch, Morrison Hershfield conducted test openings in order to review for possible moisture related damage and mold growth.  Moisture probe tests were conducted in each opening in order to determine if the envelope is performing in terms of water penetration.
