The recent growth in the use of polyurethane foam insulation and changes in the related codes and standards have created the need to provide designers, installers, code officials, and other industry members with an update on the new requirements for projects that include foam plastic insulation. Code provisions discussed include requirements for fire protection in attics, basements and crawl spaces, rim joists, roof assemblies, mechanical system components, as well as requirements for less well-known building assemblies and systems. The presentation includes examples from projects that demonstrate the requirements for various building types and building locations.
