Code Dependent: Know What You Don't Know - ADU Redux

This is the fourth session in the Code Dependent series.

AIA Seattle’s Codes Committee presents its fourth and final seminar of 2019. Back by popular demand from last year’s ADU/DADU session, the committee returns after the City of Seattle approved a swath of new legislation relating to their construction citywide.

This session will address common issues for Residential projects: – Land Use – Building Code – Energy Code And specifically address current design issues for Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU)/Detached Accessory Dwelling Units (DADU), home business/office, Substantial Alterations, Existing Non-conforming Conditions and site access and environmentally critical areas (ECA).

Code Dependent: Know What You Don’t Know – ADU Redux is now full, please join the wait list. We will contact you if spots become available.  

This program takes place in a wheelchair-accessible facility, with a zero-step entrance via elevator on Third Avenue, or off the street on Fourth Avenue. Bathrooms are fully accessible with a zero-step entrance on the same floor as our program, as well.
