2021 and 2024 IECC: Impact on Structural Building Systems
11 a.m. PDT/2 p.m. EDT - September 17
The 2021 and 2024 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) introduced new energy-efficiency requirements that affect structural building systems. From air sealing to the integration of continuous insulation and advanced framing techniques, these changes create new challenges and opportunities for designers, engineers and builders.
This session will explore the structural implications of these energy code updates, including potential effects on wall bracing, load paths, moisture management and engineered wood floor systems. Gain practical insight and tips for navigating these structural challenges while ensuring compliance with advanced energy codes. AIA and ICC credit pending.
