Existing Buildings: Getting to Success with the Building Code Including the new CEBC Work Area Method

Reuse and retrofit of existing buildings is a key climate action strategy.  When these projects create new housing from underused or empty commercial buildings, it’s a win-win:

  • Major embodied carbon benefits for greenhouse gas emission reductions
  • Urban revitalization and economic development
  • Housing in locations where it’s critically needed

There are five different compliance paths that California architects have available for work on existing buildings.  This program will provide a high-level overview of all code options, insights, and information to make an informed code choice.  It will also provide a deep dive into the Work Area Methodology, new to California as of July 1, 2024.  Join architect Michael F. Malinowski, FAIA for this fast-paced exploration of code choices and nuanced differences and learn about factors that can lead you to a code ‘best fit’ for your next existing building adventure.

Note: This program targets design professionals with a basic familiarity of building code principles, terminology and the application of codes to building design.

Speaker: Michael F. Malinowski, FAIA  – President, Applied Architecture
