Description:
Reuse and retrofit of existing buildings is a key climate action strategy. When these projects create new housing from underused or empty commercial buildings, it’s a win-win:
-Major embodied carbon benefits for greenhouse gas emission reductions
-Urban revitalization and economic development
-Housing in locations where it’s critically needed
There are five different compliance paths that California architects have available for work on existing buildings. This program will provide a high-level overview of all code options, insights, and information to make an informed code choice. It will also provide a deep dive into the Work Area Methodology, new to California as of July 1, 2024. Join architect Michael F. Malinowski, FAIA for this fast-paced exploration of code choices and nuanced differences and learn about factors that can lead you to a code ‘best fit’ for your next existing building adventure.
Learning Objectives:
-Understand why existing building reuse and retrofit are essential climate action strategies
-Recognize the various code compliance options for an existing building retrofit/reuse project in California and factors that can influence design professional choice
-Understand how to use the CEBC’s new work area method for code compliance
-Review case study examples of commercial to housing adaptive reuse and code issues that need to be considered
