SUMMARY:Influencing Building Codes on the National, Provincial, State, and Local Levels
DESCRIPTION: \nInfluencing Building Codes on the National, Provincial, State, and Local Levels\nDate: February 13, 2024Time: 1:00 p.m.–2:00 p.m. Eastern Time\n\nImage Courtesy of iStock by Getty Images\nThis live virtual webinar will take place via Zoom. Registrants will receive an email to confirm enrollment in the “Influencing Building Codes on the National, Provincial, State, and Local Levels” course, which is accessible in the LearnUpon platform. The Zoom link/login information is posted within the course.\n\n \nCost: Members: Free /Nonmembers: $65.00\nDescription\nIIBEC members use various codes and standards in their daily work. This familiarity with model building codes has allowed IIBEC to influence and propose changes to the national model codes based on member feedback. While modifying the model codes is an efficient method at the national level, local adoptions of current codes vary widely in the United States. Delayed adoptions and local modifications have the potential to reduce stringency, but they also pose an opportunity for IIBEC members who are familiar with the local-amendment process. This webinar will give IIBEC members an introduction into the world of code development. Through this process, opportunities for proposing local amendments will be highlighted, including a recent success story related to adopting 2024 International Building Code amendments in the state of Georgia’s building code.\nKnowledge Level: Introductory\nRecommended Prerequisite Knowledge: None\nLearning Objectives: At the end of this course, the learner will be able to:\n \n\n1.tDetermine the dates for submission of code-change proposals for the 2027 International Code Council’s code development cycle.\n2.tExplain how model building codes are modified, adopted, and amended in the United States.\n3.tRecognize opportunities to influence code development in their local jurisdiction.\n4.tRestate a story of IIBEC members’ success in amending the building code in Georgia.\n\nSpeakers\n \nEmily Lorenz, PE\nInternational Institute of Building Enclosure Consultants\n \nEmily Lorenz, PE, F-ACI, specializes in building code and standards work and advocacy, currently representing the International Institute of Building Enclosure Consultants as its senior director of technical services.
