As natural disasters grow more frequent and severe, the demand for resilient, high-performing buildings has never been greater. This webinar explores the essential role of resilient construction methods in today's built environment and introduces the APA resources available to support resilient design using engineered wood products (EWPs). Whether you're a designer, engineer, builder, or industry professional, this session will equip you to enhance building performance, occupant safety, and environmental stewardship.
What you’ll learn:
How today's building codes and standards address public health, safety, and the environmental impacts of construction materials
Key programs and standards that quantify resiliency and help you meet code requirements using engineered wood products
How to use detailed construction drawings and installation best practices to build strong, sustainable, and energy-efficient structures
How to effectively communicate the value of engineered wood products to clients
How APA resources can support resilient design throughout the construction process
