PREFACE

Introduction
The Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code (USBC) is a state regulation promulgated by the Virginia Board of Housing and Community Development, a Governor-appointed board, for the purpose of establishing minimum regulations to govern the construction and maintenance of buildings and structures.

The provisions of the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code are based on nationally recognized model building and fire codes published by the International Code Council, Inc. The model codes are made part of the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code through a regulatory process known as incorporation by reference. The Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code also contains administrative provisions governing the use of the model codes and establishing requirements for the enforcement of the code by the local building departments and other code enforcement agencies.

In keeping with the designations of the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code used previously, since the 2006 editions of the International Codes are incorporated by reference into this version of the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code, it is known as the 2006 edition of the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code.

Arrangement
The Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code is part of the Virginia Administrative Code (VAC), the official compilation of state regulations published under the authority and guidance of the Virginia Code Commission. Due to the difference in the section numbering system between the Virginia Administrative Code and the model codes incorporated by reference into the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code, the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code utilizes a dual section numbering system. In the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code, the Virginia Administrative Code section numbers are listed first, followed by a section number matching the model code system. In this printing of the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code, the Virginia Administrative Code section numbers are omitted and only the model code numbering system is utilized. The version of the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code containing both the Virginia Administrative Code section numbers and the model code numbering is available from the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development and may also be accessed through the website of the Virginia Code Commission or by subscription to the Virginia Administrative Code.

Overview
The Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code is divided into three stand-alone parts. Part I contains regulations specific to the construction of new buildings and structures and alterations, additions and change of occupancy in existing buildings and structures and is known as the Virginia Construction Code. Part II contains optional regulations specific to the rehabilitation of existing buildings that may be used as an acceptable alternative to the Virginia Construction Code. Part II is known as the Virginia Rehabilitation Code. Part III of the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code contains the regulations for the maintenance of existing structures which is enforced at the option of the local governments. It is known as the Virginia Maintenance Code.

The 2006 edition of the USBC is being made available in pamphlet form as in past editions of the USBC. New for the 2006 edition are versions of the Virginia Construction Code, Virginia Rehabilitation Code, Virginia Maintenance Code and a series of Virginia specific trade codes published by the International Code Council (ICC). In the ICC published versions, marginal markings are provided to distinguish between text which is part of the International Codes and text which is part of the state regulations. Double vertical lines in the margins within the body of the codes indicate state amendments to the International Codes. As in the standard printings of the International Codes, a single vertical line in the margins within the body of the code indicates a technical change from the previous edition of the International Codes. Deletions from the previous editions of the International Codes are indicated in the form of an arrow in the margin where an entire section, paragraph, exception or table has been deleted or an item in a list of items or a table has been deleted.

As the Virginia specific trade codes published by ICC (the Virginia Plumbing Code, the Virginia Mechanical Code, the Virginia Fuel Gas Code and the Virginia Energy Conservation Code) are excerpts from the Virginia Construction Code, which references the trade codes through the International Building Code (IBC), only those administrative provisions of the Virginia Construction Code which are not dependent on the IBC provisions are included in the Virginia specific trade codes. If questions arise concerning the applicability of any provisions of the Virginia specific trades codes, the Virginia Construction Code provisions should be reviewed.
