AIA Florida and AIA Orlando have partnered together to offer the advanced Florida Building Code credit to Florida architects.

​

The course is entitled, “Preparing Code Compliant Construction Documents” and will be held via webinar on October 23, 2020 from 10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. Easter time.

​

This course provides a detailed overview of what and how an architect should be including in their Construction Documents, culled from the current edition of the Florida Building Code, that facilitates a road map for plans examiners to more rapidly review the design for code compliance and lessening the required time to obtain and issue a building permit. A case study for a design project is included to demonstrate providing the code required information.

 

At the end of this program, participants will be able to:

​

• Better able to understand the need and necessity to provide Construction Document information relative to the design of a building or interior for submission for a building permit.

• Be able to discern the important information that must be a part of the Construction Documents in order to expedite the review process.

• Explain to a plan reviewer in a concise manner, both visually and verbally, the design parameters affected by the building code.

• Be able to use the information contained in this class as a marketing tool for owners and builders in the ability to produce the plans so that plan review time is minimized.
