These
two new online courses begin
with a brief overview of the purpose of permanent bracing for wood and cold-formed steel components. They examine the challenges that construction industry professionals face when it comes to permanent bracing and some collaborative projects aimed at helping to clarify this issue. Each course reviews the BCSI-B3 or CFSBCSI-B3 Summary Sheets on permanent bracing and provides valuable risk management tips for building designers.
