Nooniversity:Tall Timber Building Design: Acoustics, Connections and Fire Protection

12:00 PM
Center for Architecture & Design | 1801 McGee, Suite 100 Kansas City, MO 64108 Map

This program is being offered as a hybrid program.  You may attend either in person or on Zoom.

Join Woodworks for this program that will give an  introduction of three new construction types in the 2021 International Building Code that has created exciting possibilities for tall mass timber buildings. However, to effectively and efficiently implement the new code provisions for construction types IV-A, IV-B and IV-C, it is necessary to thoroughly understand the allowances and required design methodologies. This presentation will take a detailed look at a number of critical design and construction topics for tall timber buildings, including high-rise and sprinkler requirements, options for lateral force-resisting systems, fire design for penetrations, connections and abutting panels, shaft wall considerations, acoustics performance, and construction fire safety practices.

This program is worth 1 HSW.  Lunch will be provided for those who attend in person.  For those who attend on Zoom, you must attend the full session in order to get AIA credit.  If you leave the Zoom meeting early, no credit will be reported.
