INVITATION: EARLY REVIEWERS WELCOME
I’m currently developing the Part 9 Bracing Course for code users who want to understand the deeper logic behind Subsection 9.23.13 — not just the requirements, but the reasoning, structure, and design process that underpin them.
The course is designed to build true lateral-bracing literacy: how The Rules work, how the code pathways interact, and how to think through a whole-building bracing design in a way that maximizes the benefits of this prescriptive framework.
This material will also form the foundation for future development on this site, including AI-supported guidance and deeper integration with the Part 9 Bracing Calculator and other digital tools.
If you’re interested in reviewing early content and offering feedback as the course develops, I’d be glad to connect.
