A nonprofit that develops model building codes, including residential and pool and spa codes that many jurisdictions adopt.
The International Code Council, known as the ICC, describes itself as an organization that develops model codes and standards for building safety. Many cities and counties adopt versions of its residential and pool and spa codes, sometimes with local changes. Owners in Nashville planning a fence, a pool barrier or a gate may hear the name when they ask about requirements.
We are an independent company and are not part of the ICC. We cannot tell you which code edition your city uses or what it requires for your property. We encourage you to ask your local codes office, and we help you prepare drawings and details for review, and we build to the plan that you have approved.
