ICC Technical Assistance
Technical assistance on the ICC International Codes
is an exclusive benefit of ICC Membership.
Staff Code Opinions
Staff Code Opinions
are issued by ICC technical staff. Written staff code opinions
will be issued by ICC staff after receipt of a written request.
Staff code opinions issued by ICC technical staff do not
represent the official position of the International Code
Council. The final authority of code opinions is the responsibility
of the code official. This policy is not intended to obligate
the final decision made by the code official.
Committee Interpretations
Committee Interpretations
will be issued on technical issues and clarifications of text
published in the International Codes. Committee Interpretations
are processed in accordance with ICC
Policy CP # 11, Committee Interpretations on International
Code Provisions, mandated by the ICC Board of Directors.
The time duration that is necessary for processing interpretations
through the Committee Interpretation process is quite lengthy.
For this reason Committee Interpretations are not intended
to resolve code issues that are time sensitive.
Committee Interpretations approved by the ICC Interpretation
Committee represent the official position of the International
Code Council; however, the final authority of code interpretations
is the responsibility of the code official.
