Building Codes
The International Code Council (ICC) develops construction and public safety codes through a governmental consensus process. These International Codes are the most trusted and widely adopted source of construction codes across the world, and they create a level playing field for builders, developers and manufacturers. State and local governments partner with ICC to adopt the International Codes either as published or with modifications to create a custom code.
