**This is a paid On-Demand session. You will be sent a link for the recording after registration, there is no live Zoom meeting.
This session will outline the ever-increasing challenges presented in new and existing buildings associated with advancing code changes and ever-rising construction costs. We will be highlighting “Things you could be doing that you will soon be required to do.” Specifically, this workshop will focus on how to simultaneously reduce costs and adhere to changing code regulations while using the rules of building science to optimize your decisions. Air tightness, optimizing glazing choices, finding the “perfect wall” and understanding opportunities in foundations should be on your list of 5 things you can be doing to simultaneously make homes safer, healthier, more comfortable, more durable and more affordable.
