SUMMARY:BC Housing's Part 9 Builder Visual Guide (updated)
DESCRIPTION:BC Housing has released a fully updated Part 9 Builder Visual Guide\, expanding on the original Step Code Builder Guide introduced in 2018. This new edition focuses on best‑practice strategies for achieving Step 4 and Step 5 performance levels\, offering builders\, renovators\, designers\, and building officials a clear\, practical resource for meeting today's higher energy‑efficiency requirements. The guide also integrates modern design considerations including power‑efficient strategies\, climate‑resilient detailing (wildfire\, heat\, and flood preparedness)\, accessibility\, and passive cooling approaches\, making it a comprehensive reference for both new construction and retrofit projects.This session will explore the updated guide and highlight the building‑science principles behind durable\, efficient wall assemblies. Participants will gain insight into design strategies\, construction details\, and code‑aligned solutions that support better performance and reduced warranty risk. With the potential involvement of BC Housing\, attendees may also receive a guided overview of the document's key sections and design recommendations\, ensuring they can confidently apply the guide's best practices in the field.
