Rather than focusing on litigation and failure investigation, the conversation centers on bringing consultants in early to prevent problems before they start. They cover building enclosures as systems, condensation and dew point analysis, climate-specific design strategies, and how risk management benefits both builders and homeowners. The discussion also touches on wildfire-resistant window testing, including tempered glass and frame performance under fire conditions.","meta_description":"On this episode of the Build Show podcast, host Matt Risinger sits down with James from RDH Building Science to unpack what a building science consultant…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":1989,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-build-show-podcast-2136317/episodes/why-every-custom-builder-needs-a-building-science-consultant/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-build-show-podcast-2136317/why-every-custom-builder-needs-a-building-science-consultant.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
