international building codes

International Building Codes (IBC) are comprehensive standards used globally to ensure buildings are constructed safely, efficiently, and sustainably. They provide guidelines on design, materials, fire safety, accessibility, and structural integrity to protect occupants and property. These codes help architects, engineers, and builders follow consistent best practices, reducing risks like collapses or fires. While specific details may vary by location, the IBC offers a unified framework to promote safe and resilient building practices across regions.
