Resilience is a key component of building design when addressing both seismic and wind design. Properly designed and constructed wood structures that comply with building code requirements are resilient, performing with minimal damage while protecting occupants during both seismic and high wind events.

This course will look at how wood-frame Lateral Force Resisting Systems (LFRS), that resist wind and seismic loads, can contribute to resistance in the built environment.

Watch how the use of MiTek Hardy Frame Cold Formed Steel (CFS) Moment and Picture Frames solutions led to a 4-story multifamily structure being framed in 23 working days. Two months were shaved off the project schedule, which also resulted in financial savings.
