SUMMARY:Construction and Fire Risk: An Insurance Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Buildings are built using a variety of construction types\, methods\, and materials. There are many risks to property and occupants\, including fire\, water\, intrusion\, extreme weather\, and other natural disasters. \nDevelopers and owners of multifamily buildings must insure these buildings during construction and occupancy over the building lifetime against these risks. Fire\, however\, continues to result in more fatalities in the United States than all other disasters combined. \nJeff Benson will present on the current state of the construction insurance marketplace\, focusing on underwriting issues related to the increasing wildfire exposures around the country and how construction materials affect availability and cost of insurance for projects under construction. \nShamim Rashid-Sumar will provide an overview of the 2024 survey of insurance costs for multifamily buildings constructed with wood-frame and concrete\, quantifying differences in costs to insure buildings of combustible versus non-combustible construction. \nDr. Anne Cope will discuss the ongoing wind and wildfire research of the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS). Dr. Cope will provide insights on how the findings lead to actionable resiliency guides and voluntary designation programs. \n\nLearning Objectives\n\n\n\n\nUnderstand the risk to buildings posed by fire.\nDevelop an awareness of the current state of the construction insurance marketplace.\nRecognize how construction materials affect availability and cost of insurance for building projects.\nLearn how current research in wind and wildfire translates into resiliency programs.
