TCA staff has prepared a study of the 2012 IECC for reference, and identified solutions and educational opportunities available through the organization. In order to assist the design and construction industries in recognizing effective solutions that can be implemented with Tilt-Up building technology, the TCA has produced a presentation delving into the latest energy standards that impact the building envelope.
