ICC

Public Comment Period - 2030 International Energy Conservation Code®
2026-01-12 - 2026-02-12 | IL
The ICC Board has established a new framework for developing the 2030 International Energy Conservation Code® (IECC®) that moves its content into two documents, the IECC and IECC Expanded. This split ensures that ICC continues to develop energy codes that meet the varied needs of jurisdictions in the U.S. and around the globe.
The intent of the IECC is to establish minimum requirements for the energy-efficient design and construction of buildings, focused on initial construction costs and the operational energy performance of the building.
The intent of the IECC Expanded (IECCX) is to provide additive requirements that provide market-driven, enforceable requirements that achieve a reasonable level of energy efficiency that is safe, technologically feasible, and life cycle cost effective, considering economic feasibility, including potential costs and savings for consumers and building owners, and return on investment.
The IECC Expanded may include optional or mandatory provisions incorporating additional energy efficiency and greenhouse gas reduction resources and provisions that lead to achievement of zero energy buildings. The IECC Expanded will provide reasonable compliance options for all energy sources in common use, while allowing requirements to reflect evolving technologies and practices.

How to Submit Public Comments
We welcome your comments on the proposed 2030 IECC/IRC Chapter 11/IECC Expanded (IECCX) Scope and Intent draft document. Please submit your comments through this form by 11:59 pm Pacific Time on February 15, 2026.

2024 IRC Loads – Snow, Wind and Seismic (Online Live)
2025-12-17 12:00 - 13:30 (America/Chicago) | IL
Mid-career residential inspectors and plans examiners will find this seminar insightful as will designers looking for a review of changes to snow, wind and seismic requirements in the 2024 IRC. The IRC has a new snow map that changes snow loads in most areas of the country. Some snow loads go up, others down, some change by 2%, a few by nearly 40%. It is important to understand changes for your local area. Component and cladding loads updated with a simplification of roof areas for steeper pitched gable roofs. For buildings in higher wind areas, where winds are more than 115 mph, nailing patterns for roof sheathing may change as well as nailing for roof cladding. Lastly seismic load application is clarified, and restraint of appliances is expanded.

PART 4 - An Overview of the Structural Changes to the 2024 IBC
2025-12-11 14:00 - 16:30 (America/New_York) | Webinar, Webinar, United States
As is well known by now, changes in a new edition of the IBC result primarily from changes in the referenced standards adopted by the IBC. The primary reference standards that have changed from the 2021 to the 2024 IBC are: ASCE 7-22 replacing ASCE 7-16 (including Supplement 1); TMS 402/602-2022, in place of TMS 402/602-2016; AISC 360-22 and 341-22 instead of AISC 360-16 and 341-16; and NDS-2024 in place of NDS- 2018. The concrete standard remains unchanged at ACI 318-19.
Part 4 will be on Temporary Structures and changes in NDS 2024.

When Disaster Strikes - Evaluator Training (Online Live)
2025-12-11 09:00 - 16:00 (America/Chicago) | IL
All too often before and after a disaster, an affected community is left on its own to struggle with preparing to respond to the event and then assessing and dealing with its damage. When assessments are not conducted quickly, a community’s residents will reoccupy potentially unsafe structures. Small scale localized events can often be handled by local building departments. However, in a large scale and/or large regional disaster, local building departments are unable to meet the demand and often unable to provide these valuable assessments. The ICC Disaster Response Inspector Program is aimed at training and certifying qualified professionals to assist with performing Post-Disaster Building Safety Evaluations. It also discusses the NIMS credentialing process whereby properly trained and qualified Post-Disaster Building Safety Evaluators can be prequalified and rostered. By properly training and pre-qualifying a pool of individuals building officials are better able to jump start recovery.

Report Writing for the Code Official (Online Live)
2025-12-04 09:00 - 16:00 (America/Chicago) | IL
Effective writing is vital to your career as an inspector, notices of violation, letters and reports are public documents that may be read by supervisors, attorneys, judges, citizens, design professionals, contractors and reporters. What you write can become the basis for appeal hearings and criminal and civil trials but also could prevent cases from going to court. Your inspection reports and notices of violation will compel a property owner to take action. Your writing skills can help to advance your career. This seminar provides knowledge and skills for effectively writing reports and violation notices for code professionals of all levels. Participants will learn the importance of writing a good report, writing professional sentences and choosing the correct terminology to use. Through examples and practice opportunities, participants will become more skilled at writing and editing their work.

Legal Aspects – Essential Topics (Online Live)
2025-12-03 12:00 - 13:30 (America/Chicago) | IL
Take a quick trip through the essential topics of the legal aspects of code administration in this mini sampler of the most important concepts inspectors must master to effectively do their jobs. The subjects covered will include the source of the building inspector’s powers and limitations on that power, why knowing what person or which legal entity the inspector is dealing with when issuing or revoking permits and pursuing violators is critical, how a basic knowledge of the right of entry can prevent devastating lawsuits, and tips on being a great witness in court.

IBC Statement of Special Inspections
2025-12-02 11:00 - 17:00 (America/Chicago) | IL

This seminar will discuss each component of the SSI, including types of inspections, the extent of these inspections, and the frequency at which they should be provided. The discussion will not only include code prescribed inspections but many of the special inspection requirements that are not defined in referenced standards. Several project examples will be used to show how an appropriate project-specific SSI is developed.
