	With respect to the control function, the goal of the building envelope is to maintain a desired internal climate despite the changing conditions of the external [[environment]]. This goal is achieved together with the mechanical equipment within a building, such as the [[HVAC]] system. Measures of the effectiveness of the envelope include its ability to provide thermal comfort, protection from the elements, indoor air quality, and energy efficiency.<ref> National Institute of Building Sciences.
