1 WORKSHOP Progressive Multi- Family Design: New Opportunities for Light Frame Mid-Rise Structures February 14 16, 2017 San Diego, Long Beach, San Francisco

2 The Wood Products Council is a Registered Provider with The American Institute of Architects Continuing Education Systems (AIA/CES), Provider #G516. Credit(s) earned on completion of this course will be reported to AIA CES for AIA members. Certificates of Completion for both AIA members and non-aia members are available upon request. This course is registered with AIA CESfor continuing professional education. As such, it does not include content that may be deemed or construed to be an approval or endorsement by the AIA of any material of construction or any method or manner of handling, using, distributing, or dealing in any material or product. Questions related to specific materials, methods, and services will be addressed at the conclusion of this presentation.

3 Workshop Description Updates to the California Building Code along with the availability of innovative new products have created opportunities for designers to add value to their mixed-use and multi-family projects by increasing scale and improving aesthetics. This workshop will introduce a new code allowance for additional stories in podium structures and review specific ways it can impact building designs. Referencing built projects and common design techniques, discussion will cover fire-rated detailing provisions, including those relevant to the detailing of wood shaft walls, and options for cost-effectively integrating mass timber into projects that are otherwise light wood-frame. Code provisions related to safety during construction will also be reviewed to demonstrate how to minimize the risk of fire on large wood projects.

4 Learning Objectives 1. Determine the design Challenges and solutions using a multi-story podium under four and five stories of wood-frame construction, using references to built examples 2. Discuss opportunities and requirements for wood shaft wall designs, including detailing options, cost benefits and relevant code provisions. 3. Investigate opportunities for combining wood-frame and mass timber solutions in multi-family mid-rise applications in order to take advantage of the aesthetics and speed of mass timber while deriving the economic benefits of wood-frame 4. Review 2015 IBC Chapter 33 provisions regarding construction safety that can minimize on-site risk of construction fires on large wood projects.

5 Design Considerations for Multi-story Podium Projects Presented by Tim Smith Togawa Smith Martin, Inc. Disclaimer: This presentation was developed by a third party and is not funded by WoodWorks or the Softwood Lumber Board.
