Description
In March of 2022, the NRC made numerous revisions to the 2015 version of the NBC (known as the 2020 NBC). This course is not intended to cover every revision but will be of significant use, particularly to those designers responsible for both Part 3 and Part 9 Buildings.
Materials to be covered will include the new Part 2 and many other additions to the 2015 version of the NBC.
The course is highly interactive, so students are required to purchase and bring their copy of the 2020 National Building Code.
