Understanding BC Building Code Update: Bracing to Resist Lateral Loads – Prince George

March 5 @ 8:00 am - 3:00 pm PST

The BC Building Codes 2024 include new bracing requirements for wood framed Part 9 housing (i.e. homes and low-rise residential). These changes are meant to resist increased force from extreme winds and earthquakes.

Builders, get ready for these changes coming into effect on March 10, 2025. Sign up for an in-person, full-day education session with the Canadian Home Builders’ Association. You can earn 6 CPD points from BC Housing.

Community Energy Association is offering a $50 rebate to attendees in Prince George (Mar 5), Fernie (Mar 12), Invermere (Mar 13), and Creston (April 11).
