January 12 FGIA Webinar Provides Updates on Texas Department of Insurance Requirements for Fenestration

The Fenestration and Glazing Industry Alliance will host a webinar, "TDI Requirements for Fenestration - New Code Update" on Tues., Jan. 12 at 11:30 a.m. Eastern. Presented by Paul Bove, engineer at the Texas Department of Insurance, this webinar is complimentary and open to the public.

As a result of the adoption of new codes, changes have occurred in the TDI windstorm program. This presentation will cover those changes and how they affect fenestration products that are used on structures within the TDI windstorm program area. Webinar participants will learn more about Designated Catastrophe Areas in Texas and how those designations impact the requirements for impact-resistant fenestration products in Texas coastal areas. The presentation will also explain nuances for impact-resistant fenestration product requirements in Harris County, Texas, and the Houston area, as well as changes due to new I-Codes adopted in Texas coastal regions as of Sept. 1, 2020.
