This year, the Ohio Valley Chapter of IIBEC - the International Institute of Building Envelope Consultants (formerly RCI) - will host in-person educational workshops on November 30 in Columbus and December 7 in Cleveland (Amherst). These workshops are designed to help architects, engineers, roofing and wall specialists, and contractors to manage risk and achieve success in their projects by providing essential building enclosure knowledge. The 2021 agenda includes the following topics:

• Using photogrammetry for building assessment and documentation. This class will cover the use of drone-mounted cameras for building assessments and documentation.
• Industry impact of 2020 FM Global 1-28 and 1-29 modifications.
• Building cladding, continuous insulation, and vapor barrier performance.
• Tapered Insulation: A hands-on workshop for design professionals demonstrating essential dos and don’ts for proper tapered insulation design.
• Fall Protection and the Law: What architects and building owners need to know about fall protection systems for their projects.
• IIBEC Roof certification practice exams.

Participants will earn up to 7 AIA HSW Learning Units for completing the scheduled classes. IIBEC members will receive corresponding IIBEC Continuing Education Units. Those who cannot attend in person can participate virtually and still earn 6 credits.

In addition to the classwork, some of the country’s leading roofing manufacturers will be available to show you the latest in roofing product innovations.
