2018 Permit Tech Series: Reading Construction Documents

This self-paced course will provide an overview of the basic concepts of the International Building Code® (IBC®). These concepts provide a basis for the correct utilization of the code. A clear understanding of the identified requirements allows the code user to apply the IBC in specific situations and helps to build an understanding of the intent of the code when asked to make a judgment on code compliance. This course will also help the code user to correctly locate code requirements. It will also provide a basis for the correct use and application of the code as well as to begin to develop a procedure for applying them. This particular webinar will provide the participants with an overview of the construction documents, symbols and abbreviations associated with the technical aspects of code enforcement. Participants will become familiar with the plan review process and different types of inspection.
