Basic

Primary: Specifiers
Secondary: Construction Project Team Members

Speakers:

David Stutzman and Louis Medcalf

Course Description:

Stud framing products have been quietly changing over the years and the code is changing too. If you are specifying gage, referencing ASTM standards, and not allowing EQ studs, then you are behind the times and will not be code compliant. Join Louis and Dave to learn about the latest developments, what the IBC 2018 requires, and what you may need to be current.
