This one-day workshop covers the following areas:

1) 2015 IRC and Mass amendments to the 9th edition of the State Building Code: 

The first 4- hours of this workshop begins with the development of building codes and our state’s history as to how building codes became mandated. Also reviews the new requirements for Construction Supervisors Licensees for the 9th edition and outline the state and local structures surrounding permitting. Then we will get into the 2015 International Residential Building Code and the Massachusetts Amendments discussing how to research code questions and what the chapters of the code mean and how they apply. Also the changes from the 2009 code to the 2015 codes pertaining to residential 1 and 2 family construction with code compliance.  

2) Energy Code class 2015 IECC with Massachusetts amendments: 

The final 2 hours reviews the energy code and the reasons for the changes in the way we approach energy conservation through our Massachusetts State Building Code and how the Commonwealth mandated the changes, the incentives to exceed the mandated requirements and how to achieve compliance in new and existing buildings. We also look to see what lies ahead for the future of renewal energy and how it may apply to construction.
