After the presentation\, Jonathan will walk everyone through the shop showing the process of raw material to the final product to gain a better understanding of what goes into the building of stairs and high end custom products. You’ll be guided and instructed by one of the best stair installers in the industry. JD Stairs has won several awards with the SMA (Stairbuilders and Manufacturers Association) and has opened up their shop to help architects with any struggles or questions they have pertaining to the stair industry. \nThe International Residential Building Code (IRC) is the most widely adopted model code for 1 and 2 family homes. Significant changes in the 2009 and subsequent editions of the IRC widely affect the design of stairways. Building codes applicable to Stairways\, Handrails and Guards are a minimum standard of safety that can be easily exceeded providing an additional margin of safety for residential occupants and provide the aesthetic desired. Recent changes have clarified many issues previously subject to wide interpretation.  Many of these changes have already been adopted by local jurisdictions or are being considered.  An understanding of the intent and direction of the IRC model code and how it is applied to the design\, specification and construction of stairways will be provided.  This course requires completion of the AIA evaluation to receive credit and certificate of completion. \nThis program will registered for 1.5 AIA CE/HSW Credits \nThere is no fee but you must RSVP to attend.  No Walk-ins please.\nRSVP No-Shows will be invoiced $35. \n

Weinberg\, Attorney at Law\nChristine Drage\, Founding Partner\, W&D Law\nKevin J. McGrath\, J.D.\, Vice President\, Professional Services\, Risk Strategies Company\nSociety is clearly becoming more litigious\, and design professionals are being drawn into litigation with ever-increasing frequency. Insurance companies and clients alike want to minimize their risk; mediation is a relatively inexpensive and rapid alternative to litigation. How does it work\, and how can you prepare for it?\nMost design professionals\, and even their office and business managers\, do not have an understanding of the litigation process in the event of a construction defect or an accident. This seminar is designed to fill that gap and to educate them on what their rights and obligations are and how to take advantage of them in\nobtaining a better outcome. Experienced attorneys and a well-qualified risk manager\, also licensed as an attorney\, will present comprehensive solutions and explanations of these issues and answer and respond to questions from audience members to leave them with a much better understanding of the benefits and gains from this process. \n12:15pm-1:15pm\nBreak for lunch \n1:15pm-3:15pm – Building Code Session – Details TBD \n3:15pm-3:30pm\nBreak \n3:30-5:30pm\n“Housing that Heals: Trauma-Informed Design and Supportive Housing”\nNevada Housing Coalition – Speakers TBD\nThe emerging research on Trauma-Informed Design (TID) shows promising outcomes for homeless service and supportive housing programs across the country.
