2018 Code Changes Demystified
The 9th edition of the Mass Code took effect January 1, 2018. You’ve heard the buzz words: IBC, IRC, and IECC - Stretch Code - Performance path vs. Prescriptive path. Etc. What does any of that actually mean!?
ü How do these changes affect the next permit you pull?
ü What changes have been implemented in the Stretch Code Towns?
üDo we still need hurricane protection?
ü What is the code official going to be looking for at your next framing inspection?
