Progress report #4 : measured pressure equalized performance of a brick veneer/steel stud assembly : performance of pressure equalized rainscreen walls, a collaborative research and development project...: NH17-232/1995E-PDF

"A literature review conducted by the National Research Council (NRC) in 1992 to determine design guidelines for pressure equalized rainscreen (PER) walls concluded that current guidelines were not at all comprehensive. As a consequence, a research and development project was initiated to generate design guidelines for PER walls.
