SUMMARY:WORKSHOP: Wood Frame Construction for High Wind Regions - 06/25/2009
DESCRIPTION:Wood Frame Construction for High Wind Regions  LIMITED SEATING-PLEASE REGISTER EARLY TO SECURE A SPACE  Workshop Overview The program provides an overview of how wind loads affect a building and how proper design and construction prevents damage to the building. We will cover the use of code referenced design manuals as well as locally approved design documents. The audience will gain an understanding of building code requirements\, structural design and framing methods to reduce costs for building in high wind regions including using wall sheathing for combined shear and uplift. The program will include\, selection and specifying wood frame products\, fastening with nails\, screws and glue and complying with the ever changing building codes.   Norbord will also present their new Pinnacle Premium Sub-Flooring product that offers builders the choice of FSC OR SFI Chain of Custody Certified Wood   Handouts Hard copy or electronic versions of the program will be available. We will also hand out design documents that the attendees will keep as a reference.    This class is certified by the AIA and qualifies for 2 hours of CEU (Continuing Education Units).    Instructor Biographical Information David E. Lewis received his BS In Civil Engineering from the University of Central Fla. Mr. Lewis started his career as a forensic engineer where he analyzed the failure of buildings and building components. In 1994 Mr. Lewis joined APA The Engineered Wood where he served as a senior engineered wood specialist until joining Norbord Industries in 2007. At APA he developed and implemented training courses for the construction industry. The courses included high wind design for wood frame\, moisture control in homes and green building with wood. He has served on several building code committees and remains active in the code development process. During his career Mr. Lewis has served on damage assessment teams assigned to review and analyze structural damage caused by high wind and seismic events beginning with hurricane Andrew in 1992. He has authored articles on topics ranging from wood frame structural design to controlling mold and mildew in homes. Currently he provides continuing education courses in states where high wind is a primary design issue including Florida\, Louisiana\, Mississippi\, Connecticut and Massachusetts.
