2018 International Building Code (IBC – General) – Structural – Accommodate Florida Specific Needs

Structrual TAC

G12-16	202	Revises section 202 definition “Lowest floor” to make this definition consistent with the change to 2015 IRC R322.1.5 that was Approved as Submitted (RB182-13) to ensure consistency with the definition of the National Flood Insurance Program.

Cost Impact: Will not increase the cost of construction. Modifying the definition does not change how the term is used or the requirements applicable to the term.	Same as change between 2015 IBC and 2018 IBC
