Approximately 1 hour
Urbanization and increasing land costs creating a tight housing market are driving densification and multifamily residential development. There is increased interest in midrise timber construction due to the 2021 International Building Code®, which permits mass timber buildings up to 18 stories high. This course discusses current IBC® requirements for the fire design of wood structural elements in Type III and Type IV buildings. Learners will review the use of continuous rod tiedown systems for light wood frame shearwalls and uplift restraint for wood structures up to 6 stories.
