High-Performance Homes Team - Scuttle Hole Design
(1.0 P4 CE)
Cost: $25 (Free for AIBD Members)
Building departments are increasingly scrutinizing attic access (scuttle hole) details in plan reviews, raising questions about how to meet evolving safety, accessibility, and insulation requirements as codes become more focused on energy efficiency and quality construction. As standards shift, design teams may feel uncertain—wondering if their current scuttle cover designs will still meet approval or if more stringent detailing is on the horizon. Navigating these updates while balancing efficiency and compliance can be a source of stress and confusion. Join the High-Performance Homes Team for a dynamic, solutions-focused conversation. Each month, experts and peers discuss everything from material choices and energy codes to climate adaptation and green technology integration. Bring your questions and experiences so you’re ready for the next wave of building code changes, and help shape best practices for the industry!
