Understanding the Fire Safety Requirements for Exterior Walls

Presented by Keith Calder

The building code fire safety requirements for exterior walls are complex and given the recent history of international incidents, the industry has faced varied interpretation of requirements and compliance challenges in a market with an increasing need for energy efficient building products that tend to contain combustible material. This presentation will cover the complexities of exterior wall cladding/assembly fire safety requirements of the 2018 British Columbia Building Code and 2019 Vancouver Building Bylaw, including referenced test standards.

AIBC Members will receive 1 Core LU (Learning Unit) for attending this event.
