Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) are a new sustainable structural panelized building material that can be used for roofs, floors, and wall panels. This webinar will examine various uses and structural limitations on the materials. An exploration of code requirements and constructibility will be included. Design examples will illustrate cost effective approaches to incorporating this new sustainable material.
Note: This is a live
webinar delivered via WebEx. Session instructions will be emailed to you 24-48
hours prior to the webinar and the morning of the webinar. If you have not
received your instructions for any reason please call client support the day of
the event. Webinars are live and interactive and students will have the ability
to directly interact with and ask questions of the presenter.
Illustrate how to incorporate this material into traditional building construction to provide style, comfort, safety and durability
Calculate the demand on the material without sacrificing affordability and life safety
Define the code expectations for gravity and lateral performance to provide occupants with adequate protection
Address constructibility issues
