Along with industry allies, NRMCA Vice President of Sustainability Tien Peng will testify on proposals at the International Code Council (ICC) Committee Action hearings in Memphis next week. There will be a catalog of proposals from the wood industry to modify the building code, including amendments to adopt the use of CLT (cross-laminated timber) for tall structures, traditionally built with concrete. NRMCA’s code activities are a part of a sustained effort to defend concrete interests in regulatory and code issues, and engage decision makers, that can then be adopted by state and local jurisdictions. Members interested in supporting the code efforts are encouraged to provide brief testimony developed by NRMCA to oppose the wood proposals.
