With tightening energy and carbon regulations in construction, understanding Step Codes is crucial—especially when designing balconies and façades.
In this video, we explain what Step Codes are, how they’re used in places like British Columbia, and what they mean for thermal performance, insulation, and balcony detailing.
✅ You’ll learn:
– What Step Codes are and why they exist
– How balconies impact building energy performance
– Sapphire’s approach to thermal breaks and compliance
– Why offsite balcony systems help meet Step Code targets
If you're designing for energy efficiency, this is a must-watch.
