SN-ICC Firestop Seminar
Firestopping has become a hot topic because of the new Firestop Inspector requirements in the International Building Code (IBC). This training is designed for Plans Examiners, Fire and Building Inspectors, Contractors, Architects and Engineers.
We will review the requirements of sections 714 and 715 of the IBC for joint systems, perimeter containment, through and membrane-penetrations, discuss the new ASTM firestop inspection standards and you will receive an overview of Draftstopping and the residential requirements of fireblocking.
This program will also provide code compliant solutions along with helpful hints for plans examiners and inspectors.
The presenter will be Brice Miller. Brice has over 25 years’ experience as Building Official, Inspector and Plans Examiner and holds four International Code Council (ICC) certifications. He has provided firestop presentations to most state ICC Chapters throughout the country and proposed the ICC firestop inspector certification that should be implemented in 2018, and was instrumental in the development of the new ICC book, titled Firestopping, Joint Systems and Dampers.
Please note that this is a half-day class presented twice that day -- once in the morning and once in the afternoon. You MUST choose one option.
