 I shouldn't have to pay to see the law I'm held to. June 23, 2008
Not a review of the content, for the most part it is well organized and concise. My issue is with the distribution. Yes I could look at the copies in the regional building dept. office (50 mile roundtrip) or city library (40 mile round trip). But if it's public law, why can't I get access to it via the net, or for a nominal fee to cover printing & distribution expenses?
 Pleasant purchase February 28, 2008
The book was in perfect condition, as advertised. I also received it promptly. No negative aspects of the purchase whatsoever! Thanks!

 The IBC more than just another building code March 22, 2006
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
The IBC is the long-time-coming consolidation of the three major building codes in the US and there is nothing "international" about it. Back in the 70's the 3 code organizations formed BOCA and put out a 1 & 2 family dwelling code. The 3 members them gradually made changes to the individual building codes that brought them into similar formats, then they combined them into one code in 2000, the IBC, and modified the dwelling code to be the IRC (Int. Residential Code)and changed the organization's name to the ICC, the Int. Code Council. There little to review about the content since it is either the law in your area or it is not. For comparisons to previous codes and other information try the ICC's website http://www.iccsafe.org/

It is pretty difficult to review a specification that you must have.
