SUMMARY:The BuildRight Roadshow
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a morning of learning – Earn 4 hours of CCB CE Credits \nPresented by: Builders FirstSource – READY-FRAME \nPresenters: \nRON NUTTALL Advanced Framing\nAs energy codes become stricter\, builders and designers are seeking options for energy-efficient construction that maintain strength\, durability\, sustainability\, and costeffectiveness. One effective solution is advanced framing\, a system of construction framing techniques that optimize material use and increase energy efficiency. Join APA’s Ron Nuttall as he discusses common advanced framing techniques\, the benefits of the system and typical challenges that builders encounter during the conversion from traditional framing to advanced framing. \nCAROL EISENLOHR 5 Easy Steps for Implementing Best Practices in the Field\n1. How a Quality Assurance and Best Practices Program can positively impact warranty and customer experience. 2. Identifying and gathering information for easy access to those who need it. 3. Creating and using simple checklists for each task during the building process. 4. Setting unified expectations between Trades\, Warranty and Construction Managers. 5. Efficiency and Accountability tips: The key to making the program work.\n \nGREG LASHER What does the Oregon Energy Code Require Now & Where is it Going?\nThe latest Oregon Energy Code (ORSC 2021) introduced balanced ventilation and the complex choices where a builder can locate the HVAC system in a new home. Furthermore\, the proposed ORSC 2023 takes these requirements further. Greg will explain the current choices that builders have to comply with the current code and suggest changes that will prepare for the future code changes. The Energy Trust of Oregon offers builders free consultation and training for code preparations and cash incentives to build above code in the EPS for New Construction offering—not a bad way to prepare for the future!\n \nBonus tour of the Ready-Frame Facility on-site at Noon
