Based on the 2015 IRC, the American Wood Council’s Prescriptive Residential Wood Deck Construction Guide – commonly known as DCA6, or Design for Code Acceptance 6 – is widely referenced by code officials and builders alike. To guide you through its provisions, hardware manufacturer Simpson Strong-Tie is offering a free webinar, as well as a new 12-page companion tech bulletin called Connection Solutions to Meet the DCA 6 Prescriptive Residential Wood Deck Construction Guide. The webinar will be led by David Finkenbinder, Simpson Strong-Tie branch engineer, and Loren Ross, director of sustainability and energy at the American Wood Council, and will include a live Q&A session.
