Tanya J. Laird From time immemorial, fire risk has been a critical consideration in the design of wooden buildings. This webinar explores how light wood frame construction and heavy timber construction performs in a fire-design context. The fire performance of wooden structures will be explored and compared with the performance of other building systems, such as steel frame and reinforced concrete construction. Additionally, recent changes to building codes to allow for the construction of mass timber buildings up to 16 stories will be discussed. This course includes a multiple-choice quiz at the end, which is designed to enhance the understanding of the course materials. Note to Webinar Attendees: Our live webinars (web seminars) are considered as "Courses of Learning" (live courses) by the New York State Board for Engineering and Land Surveying and as "Timed & Monitored Courses" by the Ohio State Board for Professional Engineers and Surveyors. Unlike the traditional seminars held in a classroom setting, our webinars deliver live instruction to your home or office. You will be able to interact directly with our instructor during a webinar through audio channel or chat box. However, you must attend the webinar at a scheduled date and time. We will verify your attendance through our online webinar platform. The certificate of completion will not be issued unless you attend the webinar and pass a quiz (all quiz questions will be reviewed during the webinar). Thank you for your cooperation.

NY Board does not accept courses related to office management, risk management, leadership, marketing, accounting, financial planning, real estate, and basic CAD.
