Development of the 2024 International Codes Begins

January 6, 2021
Development of the 2024 International Codes Begins

The deadline to submit proposed changes to the 2024 International Codes (I-Codes), Group A, is Monday, Jan. 11, 2021, at 11:59 p.m. PST. All interested parties must submit their proposals through the code development website, cdpACCESS.

The I-Codes — developed by the International Code Council — are a family of fifteen coordinated, modern building safety codes and standards used throughout the world that protect against disasters like fires, weather-related events and structural collapse. The code change submission process marks the beginning of the code development process for the 2024 I-Codes. This process takes place every three years and is open, transparent and inclusive. All interested parties are encouraged to participate by submitting a code change proposal, testifying at the code hearings or applying for a position with a Code Development Committee.

The Group A Codes include the International Building Code (IBC-Egress, IBC-Fire Safety, IBC-General); International Fire Code; International Fuel Gas Code; International Mechanical Code; International Plumbing Code; International Property Maintenance Code; International Private Sewage Disposal Code; International Residential Code (IRC-Mechanical, IRC-Plumbing); International Swimming Pool and Spa Code; International Wildland-Urban Interface Code; and International Zoning Code.

After the code change proposals are submitted, expert committees will consider the proposed changes for recommendation at the virtual Committee Action Hearings scheduled for April 11 through May 5, 2021. The hearings offer code officials, architects, builders, engineers, designers, contractors and other interested parties the opportunity to provide input on proposed code changes to the Group A codes. In advance of the hearings, the Code Council will release the hearing schedule and post proposed code changes on Monday, March 1.

Additional resources:

To submit a code change proposal, visit www.cdpACCESS.com. Anyone can submit a code change, but registration is required. Registration is free and only takes a few minutes.
