Conference: Durability and Disaster Mitigation in Wood Frame Housing

2nd Annual Conference on Durability and Disaster Mitigation in Wood Frame Housing Conference, November 6-8, 2000

The primary objective of this conference is to provide design professionals, builders, code officials, govern-ment officials, researchers, and educators with the latest information on issues related to housing durabili-ty and disaster mitigation. The conference will feature presentations and panel discussions on issues related to housing durability and disaster mitigation including case studies of product and systems durability perform-ance; national durability programs; wind, fire, flood, seismic, pests, mold, and rot issues; new products and technologies; construction quality assurance and imple-mentation; and builder perspectives on durability and disaster mitigation. The conference venue will also include a suppliers showcase, displays of products and services offered by sponsors of the conference, and "poster" presentations on various subjects related to durability and disaster mitigation. 1st annual conference on Durability And Disaster Mitigation In Wood Frame Housing November 1-2, 1999, Monona Terrace Convention Center, Madison, Wisconsin, Usa
