Description

In this half-day course, you will review the factors that govern cladding requirements in the Manitoba Building Code.

You’ll also go over several case studies past and present involving cladding fires.

  • 2020 NBC Requirements – Insulation Requirements in Combustible and Noncombustible Construction
  • Case Histories – Building Interior Fires Involving Foamed Plastic Insulation- Station Night Club Fire
  • Spatial Separation Requirements for Construction of Exposing Building Face and Cladding (Part 9 and Part 3)

NOTE: In anticipation of the pending adoption of the 2020 NBCC in Manitoba this training will be based on the 2020 code.  References will be made to the 2010 and 2015 NBCC to identify any differences and changes.  A brief overview of what's new in the 2020 NBCC will also be presented.
