4 Course Title: Description: Ever since its introduction, there has been a lot of speculation regarding the International Green Construction Code (IgCC). What is IgCC all about and what does it mean for you? Who has adopted IgCC Codes in the region and what are future trends? What will I be expected to know and do? This presentation will take a practical look at the 2012 IgCC from the perspective of Architects and Engineers practicing in Maryland. It will cover an overview of the 2012 IgCC, including the scope and basics of the new code as adopted in Maryland and Baltimore. A technical discussion on the IgCC chapters will focus on the site development, energy, commissioning, materials, water, and IEQ requirements of the IgCC that standout from other green rating systems. You will come away with an increased level of understanding of the IgCC and its requirements in Maryland. You will be able to demonstrate technical knowledge of the IgCC and evaluate the administrative and compliance challenges that will affect you.

to demonstrate knowledge of how the IgCC is being implemented in the State of Maryland for state funded projects and in Baltimore City

5 Course Title: Objectives: Participants will be able 1. to explain the development of the IgCC as a code overlay and describe current status of the IgCC regionally, and locally. 2. to demonstrate knowledge of how the IgCC is being implemented in the State of Maryland for state funded projects and in Baltimore City building codes. 3. to assess the critical concepts and requirements of the IgCC and how it regulates building sectors new construction and existing buildings projects. 4. to describe chapter requirements and analyze individual credits.
