When following conventional construction of residential buildings, protecting the safety and welfare of the building occupants and the public is a primary concern. But as a professional, you don’t want to feel backed into a corner by standards. The 2015 International Residential Code® provides comprehensive, easy to use standards that afford the greatest design flexibility in recognizing other methods and materials of construction.
 
This interactive, online course explains the difference between “prescriptive” and “performance” requirements. Prescriptive structural design requirements to resist the forces of wind, earthquake and snow are described and illustrated in an easy-to-understand way. Structural topics include conventional wood floor, wall and roof framing, and engineered wood products.
 
Developed in partnership with the International Code Council®
