The Importance of Field Mockups for Exterior Wall Cladding Assemblies

Given rising labor & material costs and ever-expanding lead times, even the smallest element executed incorrectly can have detrimental implications to a project’s budget and schedule. This is particularly crucial for exterior features that safeguard a structure from the elements. That is why field mockups for exterior wall assemblies have become such an essential part of any construction project.

Mockups provide architects, designers, contractors, and owners the opportunity to assess an in-person, three-dimensional representation of a design so that functionality, aesthetics, and quality can be evaluated down to the smallest detail.

Even with today’s photorealistic rendered images through building information modeling (BIM), full-scale mockups do more than a drawing or rendering can.
