SUMMARY:Outside the Box Plan Review
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Steve Thomas Description: The class addresses the true intent of alternative and or performance-based code versus the prescriptive code. It encourages students to look outside the box when evaluating unusual conditions or projects. The ICC Performance Code for Buildings and Facilities® (ICCPC®) will be reviewed as part of this class. Although not widely adopted\, this code provides a method to deal with unusual conditions. It also describes the true intent of the I-Codes to assist in evaluating performance-based design.

SUMMARY:Ventilation
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Hope Medina Description: A building ventilation/mechanical system doesn’t just appear. It starts with the design of the system and ends with it being inspected. We need to know what should be provided on the plans and what should we be looking for when reviewing a project to get the desired results in the field by the contractors and inspectors for energy compliance? We are going to review these questions with examples from plans and pictures from the field\, both good and maybe not so good. Let’s talk about the process that is needed to get a project compliant with the energy code.

Participants will learn how to recognize key components of commercial construction plans and understand what plan reviewers and inspectors evaluate during the permitting and inspection process. The class will provide insight into how commercial projects move through the building department\, highlighting the roles of permit technicians\, plan reviewers\, and inspectors. Real-world examples and inspection photos will be used to demonstrate how items shown on commercial construction plans translate to what inspectors see in the field\, helping permit technicians better understand the full build

SUMMARY:Construction Terminology for Techs
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Jessie Sorensen Description: Permit Technicians often encounter construction language in permit applications\, plan sets\, inspection notes\, and customer conversations. This course trains technicians to recognize components of a building\, understand key terminology\, and see how construction concepts appear in the real world by analyzing actual inspection photographs and plan notes. The course provides a broad overview of terminology across multiple disciplines\, including residential and commercial construction\, plumbing\, mechanical\, and energy systems\, with a focus on how these terms are used during plan review and field inspections. Participants will gain practical insight into how terminology connects to code requirements\, construction methods\, and common field condit

SUMMARY:Residential Plan Review 101
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Josh Harmon Description: This course will review what details should be provided on the construction plans and what expectations staff should have for projects demonstrating compliance with the current residential construction codes. A building doesn’t just appear – it requires a thorough design\, and this course highlights the role of plan review in facilitating compliance with residential construction codes. Course attendees will review sample plans for adequate detail\, review components for compliance with the prescriptive and mandatory requirements of the code; and identify how alternative compliance paths can affect the details provided to the building department throughout the construction process.

SUMMARY:Deep Deve 2024 IECC – Thermal Envelope Residential / Commercial
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Hope Medina Description: (Residential) When the phrase of the “building thermal envelope” is mentioned the image people think of is insulation\, but what other components are involved with the thermal envelope. The Building Thermal Envelope is a critical component of project design that serves to provide thermal resistance and create a level of safety and separation between the exterior environment and the interior conditioned spaces. This training course will discuss what the energy code provisions has for various materials and assemblies that provide this\, and where provisions have increased and those locations that the provisions decreased.  Join us to what new and exciting provisions are now in the IECC for residential thermal envelopes. \n(Commercial) When the phrase of the “building thermal envelope” is mentioned the image people think of is insulation\, but what other components are involved with the thermal envelope. How do air barriers and thermal bridging fit into the thermal envelope?
