Sustainability is no longer a trend but becoming incorporated into the Florida Building Codes and building professionals whether they are architects, contractors or building related consultants need to be up to date on sustainability code related items. This interactive online course outlines where the revisions have occurred in the codes and it impacts many areas. It affects the energy metrics of systems, architectural requirements in the realm of daylighting and material insulation requirements as well as renewable systems.
