Join RAiNA on Wednesday, June 10 for 'Combustible Building Materials under International Wildland-Urban Interface Code', presented by Eric Banks:

This course will provide attendees with valuable information and context endeavoring to help improve a practical understanding of the International Wildland-Urban Interface Code (IWUIC) and its implications on the uses of certain combustible building materials in the building envelope. The course will discuss how the International Wildland-Urban Interface Code (IWUIC) is designed and structured to supplement other I-Codes (e.g., the International Building Code (IBC) and International Residential Code (IRC)) as opposed to exist as a stand-alone code. Course content will include helpful background and theory behind the wildfire hazards the IWUIC is intended to mitigate. Most importantly, the course will provide attendees with understanding and examples of how combustible building materials and assemblies are suitable, viable options for use in construction under the IWUIC and capable of complying with the applicable requirements.

RAiNA is looking forward to connecting with the building envelope community in Toronto at Facades+.

As part of our ongoing efforts to advance rainscreen and façade performance, we continue to develop practical, industry-driven resources—including design guidance, installer training, and technical bulletins—through our committees and task groups.

If you’re attending, we invite you to join us and learn more about the work underway across RAiNA.

We’re also pleased to be a trade partner with The Architect's Newspaper and offer our network 20% off admission—use code RAINA20 when registering.

Join RAiNA on Wednesday, May 20 for '2025 NYC Energy Conservation Code (NYCECC): Updates to Building Enclosure Design', presented by Anya LaRoche and Cheryl Saldanha:

The latest New York City Energy Conservation Code (NYCECC) went into effect on 30 March 2026, mandating stricter requirements for building projects in the city. The revisions in this new code aim to improve energy performance, but they also introduce design and construction challenges that can impact schedules and budgets. Join RAINA as we speak with Anya LaRoche and Cheryl Saldanha from Simpson Gumpertz & Heger (SGH) about these new changes from a building enclosure perspective and discuss how project stakeholders can prepare to meet compliance requirements. We will focus on how these changes will affect exterior rainscreen design requirements and modeling practices to strengthen building performance.
