The International Building Code (IBC) and International Existing Building Code (IEBC) give consideration to historic buildings to accommodate their use and reuse for a multitude of purposes.

Ted Vedock, AIA, NCARB, LEED AP, BD+C, an experienced preservation architect whose firm has worked on more than 120 historic buildings, will use case studies to illustrate alternative compliance paths. He will trace the history of building codes and their application to historic buildings as well as discuss accessibility Thursday October 5th, starting at 2pm.

Learning Objectives

· Discuss how existing and historic buildings are addressed in the International Building Code and International Existing Building Code.

· Compare and contrast alternative compliance paths available to the project designer.

· Cite examples of alternative compliance paths that have been successfully used in historic preservation through case studies.

· Recall historic architectural elements, finishes, and materials saved in the case studies and discuss how similar strategies can protect historic materials in future work.
