This course will provide attendees with valuable information and context endeavoring to help improve a practical understanding of the International Wildland-Urban Interface Code (IWUIC) and its implications on the uses of certain combustible building materials in the building envelope. The course will discuss how the International Wildland-Urban Interface Code (IWUIC) is designed and structured to supplement other I-Codes (e.g., the International Building Code (IBC) and International Residential Code (IRC)) as opposed to exist as a stand-alone code. Course content will include helpful background and theory behind the wildfire hazards the IWUIC is intended to mitigate. Most importantly, the course will provide attendees with understanding and examples of how combustible building materials and assemblies are suitable, viable options for use in construction under the IWUIC and capable of complying with the applicable requirements.

Over time urban parks and other open landscaped areas are being lost to development. One solution to mitigate this issue is to reconsider undeveloped areas such as building roofs to create green amenity spaces. Amenity decks can provide some alleviation of lost green space, while affording developers the potential to monetize unutilized spaces in their buildings and provide an advantage over older buildings to attract tenants.

In basic roofing design vapor retarders and air barriers play a crucial role in reducing air leakage and enhancing roof system performance. However, their benefits extend beyond simple air sealing. This course explores the impact of new innovative technology: permeable vapor retarders and air barriers on moisture management, energy efficiency, and wind uplift resistance in low-slope roofing assemblies. Attendees will gain insights into moisture infiltration, air movement, and the risks associated with condensation buildup, material degradation, and loss of R-value in the roofing assembly. The presentation will cover strategies for proper design and placement of a permeable vapor retarder to mitigate condensation buildup and premature roof failures. Recent research findings will highlight how advanced moisture control solutions, such as permeable vapor retarders, enhance long-term roof resiliency and durability, lowering total cost of ownership.

Are Highly Permeable Membranes Too Permeable?

Low permeance vapor barriers, once thought to improve performance, may in fact increase interior condensation and trap moisture within the wall assembly. Due to the problems with impermeable water-resistive barrier (WRB) installation many architects are now incorporating highly vapor open WRB systems in their designs. But many still believe too much permeability is bad for a wall assembly. Studies show that highly permeable WRB systems increase substrate drying, reduce the wet time of absorptive claddings allowing permeable WRB membranes to enhance the wall assembly performance. This presentation investigates the current research on vapor open systems and discusses how more permeability enhances wall assembly performance.

From pitched to low slope roofing a myriad of designs are possible. Conventional roofing with the waterproofing membrane located weather-side and Protected Membrane roofing with the waterproofing membrane located at the deck can be used on buildings of various end-use, be low or high albedo surfaced (solar gain). Add to this vegetative roof assemblies (green roofs), roofs with solar arrays, blue roofs (stormwater management), - and no two roofs are alike. Join us to review the modern roof taxonomies and associated benefits and drawbacks, learn about latest options in roof construction, and reflect on performance differences.

Engineering Judgement are a necessary tool to provide and ensure the fire protection and life safety of buildings. The exponential number of wall assembly combinations and detailing of enclosure assemblies in the built environment prevents the opportunity to confirm fire performance through direct testing. This is especially true with the required investment of time, effort, and cost of larger scale tests such as NFPA 285. Qualified Fire Engineering teams in partnership with third-party labs and the product manufacturers offer the opportunity to extend successful test results beyond the tested specimen through a Letter of Engineering Judgement. This presentation will discuss the opportunity, challenges and limitations present when considering acceptance of test data extended to support substitution or modification to an assembly.

The 2024 edition of the International Building Code® (IBC®) contains significant, helpful, and useful updates to fire safety provisions for exterior wall assemblies containing combustible components and combustible exterior wall coverings. Key changes include new and revised defined terms, new provisions clarifying when vertical and lateral flame propagation testing (NFPA 285) is required and provides three (3) prescriptive compliance methods. Several New sections were added for building materials such as Insulated Metal Panel systems (IMPs) and Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) systems for exterior wall coverings. Additionally, significant reorganization and revisions of Section 104 Duties and Powers of the Building Official were made that provide the building official with more clear guidance and tools to both interpret and enforce the building code. This presentation will combine an overview of fire safety requirements for exterior wall assemblies based on the 2021 IBC with explanations regarding updates that were made to the 2024 IBC.
