Fire-Retardant-Treated Wood in Today's Building Code
08:00 AM - 09:00 AM
This session is a discussion of fire-retardant-treated wood's technical characteristics and building code-related applications. Emphasis is placed on the testing and labeling required by the International Building Code. The building code, as with many products, regulates the use of wood in construction. Two broad categories separate materials: combustible and noncombustible. Codes limit the applications of combustible materials on the basis of fire and life safety. The question is then, are there options available to using wood in lieu of a noncombustible material. Fire Retardant Treated Wood (FRTW) provides that option. Codes recognize FRTW for many applications where a noncombustible material is mandated.

Lunch
Building Barrier-free Showers
01:15 PM - 02:15 PM
Mandated requirements for ADA compliancy and demand from an aging population, is creating a
growing need for barrier-free bathrooms. Today’s ADA compliant bathroom no longer has to be utilitarian
or “institutional” in its design. Design options are enhanced through the use of tile and innovative
construction methods. The result is beautiful bathrooms that also adhere to ADA standards for
accessible design.
This seminar will examine ways in which barrier-free environments can be customized to include
various design elements while remaining ADA compliant. This seminar will also address why bonded
waterproofing technology lends itself to the construction requirements of barrier-free design.

Biophilic Design & Building Integrated vegetation
02:30 PM - 03:30 PM
Learn how the biophilic connection between humans and nature is an important part of the WELL building standard and how it compliments LEED. See and hear about how nature can be incorporated into the built environment and the economic reasons for its success. Get an understanding of green roof and living wall systems, the design criteria for long term success and the construction budget. Comprehend the importance of professional on-going maintenance of living plants in all places.

Benefits of Ultra Low Permeability Concrete in the Building Envelope – An Integral Approach.
03:30 PM - 04:30 PM
The exceptional durability of portland cement concrete is a major reason why it is the world’s most widely used construction material. But material limitations, design and construction practices, and severe exposure conditions can cause concrete to deteriorate, which may result in aesthetic, functional, or structural problems. The Portland Cement Association prescribes proper concrete coverage of reinforcing steel and a Low Permeability concrete mix design as the primary goals for “Best Practice”. A talented, seasoned contractor is the answer to the first…..Vapor Lock enhanced concrete may be a reasonable answer to the second.
