E – 2087 Integrating Climate Change Data into Codes and Standards
$100.00
Courses Included
Climate change is fundamentally altering weather patterns, increasing the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, and challenging the assumptions on which building codes have historically been based. The goal of this course is to equip building professionals with the knowledge to anticipate and incorporate future climate risks into today’s building standards. With real-world examples and expert-led insights, participants will learn how to create safer, more resilient structures that can adapt to an unpredictable climate future.
As climate change accelerates, the building codes and standards we rely on must evolve to meet new environmental challenges. This course explores the critical intersection of climate science and building regulations, providing an in-depth understanding of how forward-looking climate data can be integrated into U.S. building codes. Learn from experts on the latest tools, models, and best practices to future-proof buildings and infrastructure against intensifying climate risks such as floods, extreme heat, windstorms, and wildfires. This course equips engineers, architects, and policymakers with the knowledge to create resilient, sustainable buildings that can withstand the test of time.
Why take this course?
Climate change is reshaping the built environment, and the need to adapt is urgent. This course offers essential insights and actionable strategies to help participants integrate the latest climate science into building design and policy, ensuring safe, resilient, and sustainable communities for future generations.
