Description

WEBINAR DESCRIPTION
The 2015 version of the International Green Construction Code has been approved.

The 2015 IgCC creates a regulatory framework for new and existing buildings, establishing minimum green building requirements for buildings and complementing voluntary rating systems, like LEED. The 2015 version of this form code ratchets up, significantly, the energy performance requirements from the current version. And with the delays associated with LEED v4, observers have suggested that a building constructed to this new code will be greener than a LEED 2009 building.  

The 2015 IgCC acts as an overlay to the existing set of International Codes, including provisions of the International Energy Conservation Code and ICC 700 - the National Green Building Standard; and incorporates ASHRAE Standard 189.1 2014 as an alternate compliance path.

The IgCC is spreading across the country and it is in your future.

THIS WEBINAR IS DESIGNED TO:
 

  •  Examine how a clear understanding of the contractor’s unique role and responsibilities in a green building project can create business opportunities and mitigate risk for contractors.
  • Identify new challenges and risks faced by contractors constructing IgCC projects in this fast evolving environment.
  • Explore emerging sustainable design and construction topics such as implementation of the IgCC, including the new 2015 IgCC and how they impact contractors.
