This all day session will address provisions in the 2015 International Building Code® (IBC®) and referenced standards relating to the design and construction of care facilities, such as medical care, custodial care, ambulatory care and day care facilities. It will focus on the specific decision making needed to apply the provisions appropriately by highlighting the differences between the various types of care activities. The seminar will include a discussion on how the length of stay, number of care recipients, degree of care and capability/incapability of self-preservation all relate to the occupancy classification and resultant code requirements. Smoke compartments, dwelling and sleeping unit separations, incidental use separations and other special conditions provisions are also addressed. Unique provisions will be highlighted in the areas of accessibility, type of construction, fire protection, means of egress and interior finishes.
ICC Instructor
This four hour session will provide an understanding of penetration, joint and perimeter fire barrier (curtain wall edge of-slab) firestopping, as mandated by the International Building Code. The seminar is intended to provide code enforcers (AHJ's) and those involved in specification and installation the knowledge to understand firestopping to a sufficient degree to be able to ask the right questions and look for the right thing when assessing the code compliance of penetrations and joints in fire resistance rated assemblies.

This two hour session will introduce an overview of a variety of current and new wood products and techniques. It will discuss how they may be applied to building designs and how they can be used in both commercial and residential projects today to comply with the Wisconsin Commercial Building Code (WCBC) and Uniform Dwelling Code (UDC). The course will touch on Nail-laminated Timber (NLT), Glued-laminated Timber (GLT) and Cross-laminated Timber (CLT) structural framing members. NLT and GLT has been included in the IBC and utilized throughout the world for several decades on a wide variety of buildings. Structural and fire protection characteristics of NLT, GLT and CLT will be discussed as well as WCBC and UDC code provisions that allow their specification in both residential and commercial applications for a wide variety of occupancies.
American Wood Council
This four hour session will demonstrate advancing compliance for fire resistance systems within the fire duct industry requires more than a casual understanding of how to apply fire resistive testing concepts such as symmetry, continuity and orientation to these products. The instructor gradually leads the audience through each step in product selection and approval complexity, building incrementally on responses to choices presented along the way, to a fuller understanding of achieving compliance.
Conquest Firespray, LLC
In this three hour session, participants will gain a better understanding of the requirements in the IBC with respect to NFPA 13 and NFPA 13R sprinkler systems in commercial multi-family buildings. You will learn the major differences between the two sprinkler systems with respect to operation and installation methods. This course will expose you to some of the common pitfalls discovered during routine installation inspections. The last portion of this class will discuss the requirements from SPS 314 with regards to adoption of the 2012 NFPA 1 and the associated chapters. It will also touch on the municipalities option to adopt an alternative fire code through an ordinance. It will also cover the adoption of the 2015 IFC through SPS 361 and the associated chapters that Wisconsin adopts.
City of Madison Fire
This one hour session will provide overviews for the specification requirements of metal plate connected floor and roof trusses, how to read, understand and use basic truss placement plans and truss drawings, and truss design provisions of the I-codes, NDS, and ANSI/TPI design specifications.
MiTek
This two hour session will demonstrate that when constructing a new building there are several things that can hinder or help the indoor air quality of your building. This class will enlighten you to what some of those code related items are and how they work with the building codes.
Aprilaire
This one hour session will overview the steps needed to design multilevel wood buildings to maintain a proper load path to the foundation, topics include restraining hardware, the ASCE 7-16 ASD Load combination equations that control the design of tensile load restraining elements and the equations that control the design of Compression load resisting systems.
WE ARE ALL IN THE SAME BOAT - Helping building departments adopt, implement & use technologies to improve the compliance - California Innovative Practices & MADCAD eLibrary of Codes & Standards. This program shares with Wisconsin Building Officials work being done by CALBO Innovative Practices Committee in ten different technology areas and provides a demonstration of one of the innovative services, MADCAD's eLibrary of Codes and Standards which being used by Wisconsin Department of Health Services.
