New North Carolina State Building Code

The North Carolina State Building Code is changing again. The latest triennial update was finalized and passed by the North Carolina Building Code Council effective July 1, 2006. Use of the new code is optional for a six month phase in period. By January 1, 2007, all projects must be designed under the new code. The new code is a revised version of the 2003 International Building Code (IBC).
