Design & Building with the IBC (International Building Code)
ICC partnering with RJA further establishes this guidebook as an invaluable reference tool for both the design community and the building official." Martin Reiss, President & CEO, The RJA Group, Inc. "Every person is entitled to live, work, and play in buildings that are free of fire hazards and structural defects.
The International Building Code affords provisions so that these events are mitigated entirely or, at a minimum, to their lowest level of effect. Designing & Building with the IBC guides and assists code regulators, designers, and contractors familiar with the provisions of a legacy code in making the transition to the IBC.
It is an indispensable reference tool for the code regulator, architect, engineer, and contractor." James Lee Witt, CEO, The International Code Council "Designing & Building with the IBC, by Rolf Jensen & Associates, Inc., is a single source that provides the user with a practical, easily-navigated reference.
Extremely thorough in its listing of code requirements, this guide clearly catalogues the differences between IBC and previous model codes. A must-have document for architects, engineers, and building professionals, this book represents Rolf Jensen & Associates' commitment to be at the vanguard of the global fire and security consulting profession.
" Anwar Hakim, AIA, Associate Partner, Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, LLP "The International Code Council, partnering with Rolf Jensen and Associates, have developed an outstanding publication to help the code regulator, designer, and contractor transition from a previous model code to the International Building Code.
Because there are significant differences between the three former model building codes and the IBC, this document is invaluable in its ability to, at a glance, relate these differences in a clear, tabular format. Additional comments are provided to help the reader make the transition as smooth as possible.
Anyone who has worked with a previous building code and is making the transition to the IBC will find this resource to be an exceptional addition to their library of support publications."
