IIBEC is the International Institute of Building Enclosure Consultants. Members specialize in design, investigation, repair, and management of roofing, exterior wall, and waterproofing systems.
The IIBEC Western Canada Chapter (IIBEC WCC) is one of 21 regionally-governed chapters throughout America.
Since 1983, members have offered unbiased design, repair planning, quality observance, legal testimony, and general roof management services. In March of 2006, the organization expanded its mission and service scope to include waterproofing and exterior walls. This action reflects the understanding that roofing issues often influence the entire building envelope. It was discovered that in increasing frequency, members are called upon to address building-wide concerns from below-grade to rooftop.
Professional members adhere to a strict ethics code that offers unprejudiced service without affiliation with any product or manufacturer. The organization’s current membership numbers more than 2,500 and includes an international constituency residing in all 50 U.S. States, Canada, Mexico, Africa, Europe, Australia, the Middle East and the Philippines.
IIBEC WCC regularly hosts educational programs designed to demystify and explain the practical application of roofing technology, waterproofing methods and sound building envelope theory.
A monthly technical journal (Interface), and a Western Canada Newsletter provide interactive forums for information exchange and networking.
The Professional Registrations of Registered Roof Consultant (RRC), Registered Waterproofing Consultant (RWC), Registered Roof Observer (RRO), Registered Exterior Wall Consultants (REWC), and Registered Building Envelope Consultant (REBC) distinguish professionals with the proven standards of education, experience and ethics.
The organization’s mission is realized through a professional staff headquartered in Raleigh, NC, through the efforts of a volunteer Board of Directors, by numerous committee members, and by its individual members across the globe.
