Code Transition: Significant Changes to the 2015 IBC

Samir Mokashi, Principal at Code Unlimited, will be teaching a four-hour code seminar, “Significant Changes to the 2015 IBC Code”. In this seminar we will identify the key differences between the 2012 IBC and the 2015 IBC codes, with a focus on regulations common to most building types. We will also explore codes that are commonly misunderstood or misapplied, often due to lack of knowledge, subtle changes in the code language, or misinterpretation of the code language. No matter how it happens, the results can be devastating to the project and to the firm’s bottom line. There will be explanations of how and why the IBC codes have changed, its significance, and how to apply these changes correctly to future projects. In addition to explaining the technical background, we will also discuss strategies to navigate local jurisdictions.

Registration Close Date: Wednesday, June 15, 2016
