2024 ICC Performance Code® for Buildings and Facilities
The code uses performance requirements to allow for an equivalent design to the requirements of the IBC. Defines the objectives for achieving the intended levels of occupant safety, property protection, and community welfare. The code provides a framework to achieve the defined objectives in terms of tolerable levels of damage and magnitudes of design events, such as fires and earthquakes.
The 2024 International Codes® (I-Codes®) have undergone substantial formatting changes as part of the digital transformation strategy of the International Code Council® (ICC®) to improve the user experience. The changes, promoting a cleaner, more modern look and enhancing readability and sustainability, include:
- Single column text format and modernized font styles improves readability
- QR Codes replace vertical margin sidebars and arrows to identify code changes more accurately
- Shading for table headers and notes improves locating tables and applicable notes
- Grouping of associated content brings tables and figures immediately after the parent section
The 2024 ICCPC® presents provisions based on outcomes rather than prescriptive rules. It encourages new design methods by allowing broader options for meeting the intent of the International Codes®. An updated User’s Guide is included. For the most current adoptions details go to International Code Adoptions
