BUILDING CODES EXPLAINED
Building codes can seem complicated, confusing, and filled with rules that homeowners are expected to understand without ever being taught what they mean.
Building Codes Explained takes the mystery out of building codes and explains why the requirements exist, what they protect, and how they affect your home.
Written from the perspective of a building official who works directly with permits, inspections, construction, and code compliance, this book gives homeowners and contractors practical knowledge they can use.
Inside, you will learn:

• Why building codes exist
• When permits and inspections are required
• How foundations, framing, and roofs protect your home
• Why electrical, plumbing, and mechanical systems are regulated
• How fire-safety requirements protect your family
• How energy codes can affect comfort and long-term costs
• What to expect from contractors and inspectors
• How to recognize questionable construction before it becomes expensive

You do not need to become a building-code expert to make better decisions about your home. Understanding the purpose behind the requirements can help you ask better questions, choose qualified professionals, recognize potential problems, and protect one of your largest investments.
Whether you are building, remodeling, hiring a contractor, or simply trying to understand the home you already own, this book will help you understand the rules, understand the reasons, and build smarter.
