From the Preface
The 2009 International Codes promulgated by the International Code Council (ICC) comprise a comprehensive set of model regulations for the construction and maintenance of safe buildings and structures. As a result of the performance nature of the International Codes, interpretations of the code provisions as they apply to a specific situation are sometimes necessary. Interpretation of the International Codes is a regular service offered to ICC members and is intended to be of an advisory nature, with final responibility resting with the appropriate code official.
In the development of this document, a review of ICC or Legacy Code Committee Interpretations published to date was conducted. Those Interpretations that are no longer applicable because of changes in the code text since the 2000 editions of the ICC Intemational Codes were omitted. Those in which the essential interpretative issue is still relevant to the 2009 editions were edited by ICC technical staff and revised as necessary for applicability.
The interpretations appearing in this book are in consecutive order according to code and section number. Applicable 2009 Interrational Code text is included with each interpretation. |
