Changes in the 2024 International Building Code (IBC) The 2024 IBC® contains many important changes such as: Duties and powers of the building official: an overall reformat of Section 104 regulating duties of the building official, the approach for reviewing for code compliance has been significantly updated to reflect the current manner that alternate materials, designs and methods are evaluated
Area Calculation Clarification - The Building Code Forum I have a somewhat basic (dumb?) question about area calculations - Reading through the 2009 IBC it defines building area as: 502 1AREA, BUILDING The area included within surrounding exterior walls (or exterior walls and fire walls) exclusive of vent shafts and courts Areas of the building
Fire Separation Distance Between New and Existing Building with Windows From the 2021 IBC Commentary: The Commentary says: Fire separation distance is the distance from the exterior wall of the building to one of the three following locations, measured perpendicular to the exterior wall face: an interior lot line [see Commentary Figure 202 (19)]; the centerline of a street or public way [see
