Storm-Resistant Construction

Description

Registration Closes July 28

Wind forces create significant loads on residential structures, which can be dramatically increased based on exposure and configuration on custom residential structures.  Join Brian Eubanks and Noel Janacek, with Paragon Structural Engineering, as they provide participants with key insights into International Residential Code requirements for superstructure framing, the impact of wind forces on structures, and effective strategies for resisting wind loads.  This Lunch & Learn will also explore the differences between prescriptive and engineered design methods, highlight common framing errors observed in construction, and include a discussion on dedicated safe rooms and storm shelters.
