Group A and Group B Code Development Committee Responsibilities Code Cycle

1 Group A and Group B Code Development Committee Responsibilities Code Cycle Posted September 28, 2017 Updated December 18, 2017 (See updates on pages: 4 & 6) Note that, for code changes submitted to the 2018 I-Codes for the development of the 2021 Edition of the I-Codes, there will be two groups of code development committees and they will meet in separate years. The groupings are as follows: Group A Codes (Heard in 2018) International Building Code Committees: IBC-Fire Safety (Chapters: 7-9, 14, 26 and App. D) IBC-General (Chapters: 2-6, 12, 13, 27-34, App. A, B, C, F, H, K) IBC-Means of Egress (Chapters: 10, 11 and App. E) Group B Codes (Heard in 2019) istrative Provisions ( all codes except IRC, IECC Commercial Provisions, IECC Residential Provisions, and IgCC, designated definitions, and administrative update of referenced standards (istrative Code Committee) International Fire Code (IFC Committee) International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC Committee) International Mechanical Code (IMC Committee) International Plumbing Code (IPC Committee) International Private Sewage Disposal Code (IPC Committee) International Building Code Committee: tructural (Chapters: and App. G,I, J, L, M) International Green Construction Code ()(see Note 3) International Energy Conservation Code (Commercial Energy Committee see Note 1) (Residential Energy Committee see Note 1) International Existing Building Code (IEBC Committee) International Residential Code Committees: IRC-B (Chapters: 1-10 and App. E, F, G,H, J, K, L, M, O) IRC-E (1 see Note 1) ICC Performance Code (see Note 2) ICC Performance Code (see Note 2) International Property Maintenance Code (IPMC/IZC Committee) International Residential Code Committee: IRC-M/P (Chapters: and App. I, P) International Swimming Pool and Spa Code (ISPSC) Committee International Wildland-Urban Interface Code (IFC Committee) International Zoning Code (IPMC/IZC Committee) NOTES: 1. Residential Energy Committee is responsible for 1 of the IRC and the Residential Provisions of the IECC. 2. ICC Performance Code is heard by the committee indicated in brackets in front of each section see below for list of sections. 3. of IgCC is the responsibility of the International Green Construction Code Committee. Page 1 of 15

2 Some sections of the International Codes have a letter designation in brackets in front of them. For instance, Section of the IEBC has a [BS] in front of it, meaning that this section is the responsibility of the tructural Code Development Committee. The letter designations in the codes are as follows: [A] = istrative Code Development Committee [BF] = IBC Fire Safety Code Development Committee [BG] = IBC General Code Development Committee [BE] = IBC Means of Egress Code Development Committee [BS] = IBC Structural Code Development Committee [E] = IECC Code Development Committee (Commercial Energy Committee (CECDC) or Residential Energy Committee (RECDC), as applicable) [EB] = IEBC Code Development Committee [F] = IFC Code Development Committee [FG] = IFGC Code Development Committee [M] = IMC Code Development Committee [P] = IPC Code Development Committee [RB] = IRC Building Code Development Committee [MP] = IRC Mechanical and Plumbing Code Development Committee [SP] = ISPSC Code Development Committee Note: There are no bracketed letter designations for IPMC, IZC, IgCC and ICC PC because the respective code committees are not responsible for any code sections outside of those codes, or, in the case of the ICC PC, there is no single committee responsible. Code change proposals submitted for such code sections that have a bracketed letter designation in front of them will be heard by the respective committee responsible for such code sections. Because different committees will meet in different years, it is possible that some proposals for a given code will be heard by a committee in a different year than the year in which the primary committee for this code meets. In other words, code changes to Group B code text may be due and heard with Group A codes, and vice versa. The following is a list of the I-Codes and portions of I-Codes that are the responsibility of either the Group A or Group B Code Development Committees. For each group of code hearings, the codes that are primarily heard in each group are listed first, followed by the portions of codes from the other group that will actually be heard in that group. For instance, following the example above, on page 5 of this report, the IEBC is a Group B Code; however, a few sections of the IEBC including Section 1504 have a [F] in front of them, meaning that Section is the responsibility of the IFC Code Development Committee. The list therefore shows that these Sections are the responsibility of one of the committees which will conduct its code development hearings during the Group A code development hearings. This means that anyone submitting a code change proposal to IEBC Section 1504 and any other sections in the IEBC or other codes with a [F] in front of them will need to submit those code change proposals by the January 8, Page 2 of 15

3 2018 deadline for the Group A code hearings rather than a year later for the Group B code hearings. Another example is Section of the IBC (see page 6), which has a [P] in front of it. This means that this section is the responsibility of the IPC Committee. The IPC Committee will conduct its code development hearings during the Group A Code hearings. 5 of the IBC is a Group B code; therefore, anyone desiring to submit a code change proposal to IBC Section will need to submit this proposal on or before the deadline of January 8, 2018 for the Group A code hearings rather than a year later for the Group B code hearings. Many Group A codes have sections that are the responsibility of one of the Group B code development committees. For instance, each section of of the IBC, which is a Group A Code, has an [A] in front of it, meaning that section is the responsibility of the istrative Code Development Committee, which will conduct its code development hearings during the Group B code hearings. Therefore any code change proposal to of the IBC, IFC, IMC, IPC or IFGC will not need to be submitted until January 7, 2019, rather than a year before on the deadline for the Group A code hearings. Code Changes Submitted to Create New Sections. It should be noted that the letter designations in front of the Section are there because the issue or topic of that entire section has been designated to be within the scope of the designated committee. Any code change proposal received on that topic or issue represented in that section will also be assigned to the same committee responsible, regardless of whether the code change proposal is to that same section. For example, Section of the IEBC contains requirements for maintenance of exits, structural elements, fire protection during alteration, repairs and additions and is designated to be heard by the IBC-General Committee during the Group A portion of the hearings. A code change proposal that proposes a new Section 1505 that would also deal with maintenance of exits, structural elements, fire protection during alteration, repairs and additions would also be the responsibility of the IBC-General committee, and will need to be submitted by the deadline for the Group A Codes, January 8, Updates to Referenced Standards Updates to editions of standards already referenced in the I-Codes are compiled into a single code change proposal that is the responsibility of the istrative Code Development Committee, which conducts its code development hearings during the Group B code hearings. Therefore, any updates to referenced standards must be submitted as a code change proposal on or before the Group B deadline of January 7, As part of this, ICC staff will notify all standards development organizations of a need to update referenced standards approximately 3 months prior to the code change deadline. Note that the updated version of any standard included in this code change proposal must therefore be completed and available prior to December 1, Page 3 of 15
