SUMMARY:Type III Fire-Resistant Design for Exterior Walls\, Shafts and Intersections
DESCRIPTION:Regional In-Person Seminar (Peachtree Corners\, GA)\n\n\nA trend toward larger mid-rise wood-frame buildings increases the need for information on fire-resistant detailing and construction. This presentation will focus on common detailing issues and areas of misunderstanding related to exterior walls and their intersection with rated floor assemblies\, and detailing for elevator\, stair\, and mechanical shafts. The discussion will focus on fire resistance-rated design parameters and other architectural and structural considerations related to exterior and shaft walls. Mid-rise wood-frame opportunities and code-specified building sizes will be reviewed\, followed by a discussion about detailing code requirements\, code compliance\, and rationale for approval with an emphasis on constructability and practicality. \nFollowing the presentation\, continue the conversation at an on-site networking happy hour. \n  \nCredits: Attendees can earn 2.0 AIA/CES HSW LU\, 2.0 PDH credits or 0.20 ICC credits \n  \nSpeaker: \n \nLaura Cullen\, PE\, Regional Director | WoodWorks \nLaura Cullen is passionate about educating others on the benefits of building with wood. Prior to joining WoodWorks\, Laura worked as a structural designer for seven years. Her previous structural design experience focused primarily on mixed-use and multi-family structures\, as well as K-12 schools. She holds bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Civil Engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology\, as well as a bachelor’s degree in Political Science from Berry College. Laura is based in the Atlanta area\, where she is a member of CREW Atlanta\, a business network for the commercial real estate market\, and a 2018 graduate of Leadership CREW. \n  \nLocation: \nStage Kitchen and Bar \n5260 Peachtree Parkway \nPeachtree Corners\, GA 30092 \nMap & Directions \n  \nLearning Objectives: \n\nReview Type III construction with regard to cost\, building size\, and fire resistance per the International Building Code.\nReview code requirements for exterior and shaft walls\, emphasizing common questions\, including the use of asymmetric assemblies\, allowance of wood structural panels\, and bearing vs. non-bearing requirements.\nExamine a variety of floor-to-exterior wall and floor-to-shaft-wall details for use in wood-frame\, Type III construction\, and discuss code compliance paths and approval rationale for each.\nRecognize structural design considerations for stair and elevator shafts.\n\n  \nFor questions or additional information\, please contact: \nLeeAnn Charpentier\, CMP | leeann.charpentier@woodworks.org | (301) 633-0330 \n  \nImage: 1766 El Camino Real\, TCA Architects\, Carmel Partners\, Photo courtesy of IMEG
