August 14th Webinar: 2024 IRC Provisions Prescriptive Wall Bracing, Part 1: Loads and Connections

The 2024 International Residential Code (IRC) provides detailed guidelines for constructing one- and two-family dwellings, as well as townhouses, up to three stories. This course explores gravity and lateral loads, their regional applicability, and how they transfer through a building to the ground. The course will examine proper wall bracing connections, analyze load paths, and assess the scope and limitations of prescriptive building codes. Learners will be equipped to evaluate structural stability and code compliance.
