Deck Codes For Hot Tubs

Deck Codes For Hot Tubs


CLICK HERE TO ENROLL

CLICK HERE FOR THE WEBINAR DETAILS

Description: Whether installed before, with, or after a deck is built, hot tubs have a lot of building and electrical codes that have nothing to do with connecting it to power.  Does the electrician or electrical inspector understand safety glazing provisions in the building code.  Does the builder or building inspector know that metal guards near hot tubs are an electrical issue?  All four of these professionals, plus designers and even hot tub owners should understand the clearances required to lighting, receptacle outlets, switches, glass, service conductors, and more.  Learn the codes related to the hot tub placement and the deck around it, then let an electrician take it from there.

Objectives: Upon completion, attendees will…

  • Learn the minimum and maximum distances and the exceptions regarding electrical equipment near hot tubs.
  • Discover how metal guards and other metal features of the deck can become an electrical hazard near hot tubs.
  • Understand the need for cross-training when designing hot tubs into decks.

Code Edition:

  • 2021 International Residential Code
  • 2021 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code

Length: 90 minutes.

Schedule: This webinar is presented in one 90-minute session.

Behind the Scenes of Sizing Beams

Decks: Behind the Scenes of Sizing Beams


CLICK HERE TO ENROLL

CLICK HERE FOR THE WEBINAR DETAILS

Description: In under a minute of looking at the 2021 IRC deck beam design table, you’ll probably think you have it all figured out, but you probably don’t.  The footnotes give you clues that there is much more to it, but don’t let the fine print fool you.  There are some huge implications to them, and ones designers and builders should want to hear.  They apply the same to the 2018 edition…but that edition failed to mention them.  As with all prescriptive design, there are load and design assumptions that limit the design choices provided.  However, with an understanding of what’s happening behind the scenes, building authorities can gain comfort in using a few tricks to maximize the use of the code for prescriptive design for their communities.

Objectives: Upon completion, attendees will…

  • Understand the load assumptions used to derive the maximum beam spans and adjustments the 2021 IRC allows.
  • Learn how to use the IRC in an alternative manner to design beams loaded from both sides.
  • Understand the difficulty of providing pre-engineered beam design in the IRC due to variables in the load path.
  • Realize the IRC provides methods to fine tune prescriptive design.
