Disaster Durable Solutions for Wind and Water

This course provides an overview of impacts from natural disasters and identifies solutions for building back better. It discusses the use of closed-cell polyurethane foams as well as other performance materials for disaster durable construction applications, including responding to flood and wind events using approved methods and materials.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

• Describe how performance materials such as closed-cell polyurethanes can provide value to buildings in the rebuilding or initial design phases, to enhance disaster durability.
• Identify many other potential applications and materials that provide disaster durable solutions.
• Identify some of the costs and impacts associated with natural disasters, as well as the process of working with the insurance, remediation and restoration industry in response to natural disasters.
• Explain the fundamentals of using closed-cell polyurethanes, in typical and disaster related construction designs, including codes, best practices, and personnel / jobsite safety.

Approximately 1 hour. Delivered via webinar or face-to-face presentation. Available sessions shown below.
