No prior experience with building codes is required. The courses are structured to guide students through the code provisions step by step while explaining their application in construction. However, individuals who are preparing to work or who already work in construction, engineering, architecture, or building departments may find the material especially useful for strengthening their plan review skills.
The courses focus on how building code provisions are applied when reviewing construction drawings. Students will learn how to interpret key requirements of the IBC and IRC, understand the intent of specific code provisions, and apply those provisions when evaluating building plans for compliance. The goal is to help students develop the ability to approach plan review in a systematic and informed manner. A key feature of the courses is the use of realistic plan check examples. These examples demonstrate how code requirements are applied when reviewing construction drawings. By working through these examples, students gain insight into the strategy and thought process used by experienced plan reviewers.
