The 20 Degree Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

This is the final episode of Season 2 and for the year 2022. Thank you so much for making it to the end of this season, as we dove into the different clauses of the  New Zealand building code. We'll be back next year with a brand new season, stay tuned!

On this episode, Peter and Jon are tying all of those code clauses back together. Why they all relate to one another, and how to design a building that efficiently considers everything instead of clumsily considering one thing at a time.

For season two, we’ll be talking all about the New Zealand Building Code.
