The course begins with an explanation of what mitigation is, and dispels the different interpretations that the general public has concerning the mitigation definition. A thorough explanation of all the testing methods and label requirements used by the Florida Building Code 5th Edition (2014) will be given. The wind-borne debris provisions within the code will be discussed, along with the ASCE 7-10 maps depicting where this is required.
