Join the association for a live virtual event Oct. 20 to learn about digital solutions for improving operational agility and workplace efficiency.

In a week-long digital event, the Code Council will host panel conversations, keynotes and breakout sessions around key topics in building safety.

Existing needs highlight why supporting building and fire prevention departments at the federal, state, and local levels is critical.

The partnership aims to make remote virtual inspections accessible to code officials, homeowners and contractors across the county. 

Given the challenges and limited financial resources available for building departments as cited in the Code Council's ongoing survey of U.S. code officials response to the pandemic, the implementation of remote virtual inspections can also save jurisdictions time and money as there is no longer a need for inspectors to travel to and from sites.

Updated codes enhance safety, increase affordability and incorporate the latest advancements in building science.

Jay and Kristy Egg will present, 'Legionella Primer; Where Are We Headed?'

Exploring the role building codes play in our day-to-day lives, this international campaign raises awareness about building safety and the importance of building codes in making communities safer and more resilient.

In his new role, Tomberlin will strategically facilitate the adoption and implementation of the International Plumbing Code, International Mechanical Code, International Fuel Gas Code and International Swimming Pool and Spa Code in communities across the United States and around the world.

The International Code Council is offering a free webinar series and how-to documents for building and fire departments to transition to a virtual work environment.
