# Selecting Continuous Insulation Z Girts to Meet Today's Building Codes
> Join Kevin Mlutkowski and José Carrasco as they explore advanced continuous insulation and building enclosure systems.
Join Kevin Mlutkowski and José Carrasco as they explore advanced continuous insulation and building enclosure systems. This webinar dives into composite metal hybrid, perforated thermal metal, fiber-reinforced polymer, and steel Z-girt systems—analyzing their energy efficiency, fire resistance, and thermal bridging performance. Learn how to meet stringent building codes while enhancing sustainability, safety, and resiliency in modern construction.
## What you'll learn
* Key principles of building envelopes and their role in construction
* Comparison of continuous insulation systems: composite metal hybrid, perforated thermal metal, fiber-reinforced polymer, and steel Z-girts
* How to meet energy efficiency, structural resiliency, and fire resistance standards
* Best practices for ensuring compliance with today’s building codes
* Strategies to optimize sustainability, health, and safety in construction
* The importance of selecting complete, compatible systems for long-term performance
