We are the leader in the development of building codes and standards for wood design, and provide online and live training to support their implementation.
Our education programs include courses related to the use of traditional and engineered wood products for residential and commercial applications, and are ideally suited for code officials and design professionals.
We have partnered with the International Code Council (ICC), and the American Institute of Architects (AIA), and National Council on Structural Engineers Associations (NCSEA) to grant professional continuing education.
This presentation introduces basic design and construction methods for single-story residential wood decks focusing on the significant changes to the 2024 International Residential Code (IRC). The vertical and lateral load paths of conventional residential decks, as well as other general information about decks is also included. Specific design guidance includes convenient span tables for joists and beams and tables of post sizing limitations and connection methods.
