Architects, builders and related design professionals are required
to design any structure to the minimum requirements set by
applicable codes. Failure to do so can mean expensive change orders
during construction, delays, loss of client trust and even
litigation. This work explains the standard building code for the
entire United States, which replaces the regional UBC, BOCA and
SBCCI codes. It explains building code requirements pictorially,
with the aim of facilitating comprehension.
