But in reality, the building system extends to the outer reaches of what it impacts and what impacts the building. Boundaries and Boundary Criteria-Many people believe that a building system ends at the outer surface of its enclosure, in some cases at the property line.This approach is derived from general systems theory and the basic characteristics common to all systems are important to keep in mind when applying building science. There exist millions of buildings and their diversity would be overwhelming were it not for the systems approach. With the help of Building Enclosure Specialists, you can rest easy knowing you have building science experts overseeing your project. There was no need for building science when only successful precedents were copied and handed down from one generation to the next, but there was also no advancement toward high-performance buildings within traditional building practices. Modern building science, as it is known today, was born of innovation - more correctly, because of the large number of failures encountered when building designers attempted to innovate without applying building science principles. It is usually a significant departure from normative practices and relies on the scientific method to advance its agenda.

Innovation is not a trial and error process that relies on gradually refining past precedents. For this reason, contemporary building science has taken on greater importance in response to an increasing trend of innovative departures from traditional building practices based on successful past precedents. The importance of contemporary building science is often fully appreciated after the occurrence of building performance problems, or worse, after failures, rather than at the planning and design stage of building projects. The disciplinary involvement in contemporary building science ranges from the physical and engineering sciences to economics, political science, behavioral sciences, life sciences, and architecture.

More specifically, contemporary building science is a broad discipline that is concerned with the full life cycle of buildings, including:

Our building envelope specialists can apply their knowledge of building science to the work they do at BES. Modern building science attempts to work with models of the building as a system and to apply empirical techniques to the effective solution of design problems. Understanding the physical behavior of the building as a system and how this impacts energy efficiency durability, comfort, and indoor air quality is essential to innovating high-performance buildings.
