Florida Building Code

The Florida Building Code is a set of regulations designed to ensure buildings are safe, durable, and resilient, especially against hurricanes and natural disasters common in Florida. It covers construction standards for materials, design, and safety features, guiding architects, engineers, and builders in creating structures that protect occupants and property. The code promotes consistent, high-quality building practices statewide, helping prevent hazards and improving emergency responsiveness, all while supporting sustainable and accessible design.
