Energy Codes: What is New and Coming Up in the IECC?

The IRC and IECC model codes are always evolving, with some big changes in the 2021 release that many designers and builders (and some code officials) are still getting their heads around. Soon their 2024 update will be released, with more changes. What are these changes and why were they included? What are the options to following the prescriptive options for each building element? Do the changes really make a difference to occupants or the environment? Are there situations where it makes sense to go beyond code minimums?

Robby Schwarz, founder of BUILDTank, Inc. and a frequent presenter on energy codes and similar topics, will be our guest expert.
