Learning Objectives
Upon completing this training, attendees will be able to identify and describe:
- Able to identify key changes to the structural-related energy efficiency provisions in the 2021 and 2024 IECC.
- Can describe how these energy code requirements affect structural integrity and identify the implications for shear walls, braced wall panels, load paths, and EWP floor systems while also considering how these changes benefit occupants by contributing to safer, healthier, and more resilient buildings.
- Participants can discuss the potential moisture management challenges that arise from tighter building envelopes, increased insulation, and relocating ducts into conditioned space, and describe the best practices to prevent mold, improve air quality, and enhance occupant well-being.
- Identify design and construction strategies to achieve compliance with advanced energy codes and discuss how to optimize structural building practices, durability and occupant health in a cost-effective manner.
