Strikes the word Building in all places that ‘Building Code Official’ or ‘Building Official’ is noted.  Leaves Code Official in place.

The IEBC defines the term ‘Code Official’ but it then uses both “Building Official” and “Code Official”.  “Code Official” is defined in chapter 2 Definitions and is the more general term.  
Staff notes indicate possible confusion if term is changed.  (see detail report).

Cost Impact: Will not increase the cost of construction
 Editorial change which will not affect cost of construction.
	Same as change between 2015 IEBC and 2018 IEBC	No action needed on the following sections.  These sections are either reserved or seismic provisions.

Modifies text of Section 1401.1 “Scope”, 1401.1.1 “Compliance with other methods”, 1401.2.4 “Alterations and repairs”. 

This section corrects section numbering and references in FBC, EB Chapter 3 after creating new section 303 and removes duplicate details which will now be part of section 303 if approved. This proposal will make the repair provisions more consistent for each method.  The committee felt that having a standalone chapter for repairs will make the code more clear.

Cost Impact: Will not increase the cost of construction
This proposal is only to clarify the existing code requirements through relocation (reorganization) of code sections, so there is no intended increase or decrease expected by approving this proposal.

EB 13-15	301.1.5 (New)	Adds new Section 301.15 “Compliance with accessibility”. Dramatic changes are being proposed in the next edition of the ICC A117.1 standard that will accommodate a higher
number of individuals. While these changes are able to be incorporated into new construction relatively easily, existing buildings that have been designed to conform with earlier standards or were modified to meet those earlier
standards are likely to find that full compliance will create problems. Change to the code to allow for existing buildings to comply with the 2009 edition of ICC A117.1.

Cost Impact: Will not increase the cost of construction. This change will reduce the cost of construction where changes have already been made to features of a building to conform to older accessibility standards. Under the proposed changes to A117.1 significant cost would be required to conform to these requirements often in areas where upgrades have already been performed in areas such as toilet rooms to meet the barrier removal requirements of the ADA or because of alterations and change of occupancy under the I-Codes when that work had been done prior to the adoption of this new standard.
	This change is not similar to that of the FEBC. The FEBC provides for Florida specific changes to this section	No action needed.  These sections are reserved under the FEBC and/or are subject to the Florida Accessibility Code.

This proposal cleans up repetitive language in Chapters 4 and 6 now found in Chapter 3. This was felt to be a cleaner approach in having such provisions in one more globally applicable section of the code.

	Deletes section of 401.2.1 “Existing materials”, 401.2.2 “New and replacement materials”, 601.2 “Existing building materials”, 602.2 “New and replacement materials”. 

Remove all language from these sections.  This proposal deletes the "Existing [Building] Materials" and "New and Replacement Materials" sections from Chapters 4
and 6 because they are already inserted in chapter 3. The content in Chapter 3 applies to all methods in the IEBC so deleting these sections in the other method chapters reduces redundancy.

Cost Impact: Will not increase the cost of construction
This modification does not change the requirement. It removes unnecessary redundancy from other chapters, so costs are not increased or decreased.

This proposal changes the word Conformance to Compliance. This proposal was editorial in nature and the phrase “complying with” is preferred over “conforming to. This is an editorial proposal that adds clarity and consistency. The appropriate phrase is "no less complying," not "no less
conforming." "Complying" is also the term with greater precedent and preference, as seen in sections 301.1, 406.2, 407.1, 410, 702, 705, 803, 805, 903, 1012, 1203, and 1204.

EB 26-15	404.1
502.1	Modifies Sections 404.1 “General”, 502.1 “Scope”. This proposal clarifies a distinction between the scopes of the IEBC and the IPMC. The distinction between maintenance
and repair is already implied by the two codes, but some of the codes' wording has led to confusion. In particular, use of the words "maintenance" or "maintain" in various provisions for repairs has led some users and code officials to think that repair provisions either apply to maintenance work or may be used in lieu of maintenance provisions (in the IPMC or elsewhere).  The key conceptual distinction, as the current IEBC infers, is that "maintenance" preserves an acceptable condition, while "repair" corrects an unacceptable condition. Thus, maintenance applies even to an element in good condition and working order, while repair applies only after some damage has occurred.

Cost Impact: Will not increase the cost of construction. The proposal is editorial, for purposes of clarifying an existing distinction in scope between the IEBC and IPMC.

EB 30-15	407.1
410.4	Modifies text of 407.1 “Conformance”, 410.4 “Change of occupancy”. Editorial changes regarding changes in occupancy to be consistent with EB52-12 from the last code cycle. EB52 modified the definition of "change of occupancy" and made other changes consistent with the revised definition. EB52, however, only modified Chapter 10 for the work area method of compliance. This proposal makes changes that make the prescriptive compliance method consistent with EB52 and the work area method.  EB52-12 modified the definition of "change of occupancy" to make clear distinctions between changing occupancy classifications (e.g., B to R), changing occupancy group (e.g., R-1 to R-2), and changing use within a group (e.g., R-2 dormitory to R-2 boarding house). However, any of those changes are still under the umbrella "change of occupancy" definition, which is why this proposal changes the terms "group" and "use" to "occupancy."

Cost Impact: Will not increase the cost of construction
This proposal makes editorial changes for consistency within the code.

Change in Section numbering, deleting/moving sections and adding new language and section regarding 303.8.9. Though this proposal was viewed as a shift from the format of the IEBC it was felt for consistency purposes that the accessibility provisions should be located in one location within Chapter 3. The provisions are meant to apply equally to all methods. The deletion to the committee scoping of [BS] to Sections B101.3, B101.4 and B102.2.3 is an errata and is not part of the proposal.

There is a series of proposals intended to coordinate the provisions in the first and second options in the IEBC. Requirements for stairways in Sections 410.8.4 and 806.2 should match.

Cost Impact: Will not increase the cost of construction
The proposal is a clarification and coordination of current requirements; therefore, there is no impact on the cost.
	This change is not similar to that of the FEBC. The FEBC provides for Florida specific changes to this section	No action needed.  These sections are reserved under the FEBC and/or are subject to the Florida Accessibility Code.

1204.1
1205.15
	Modifies Section 410.9 “Historic buildings”, 1204.1 “Accessibility requirements”, and 1205.15 “Accessibility requirements”. This proposal was approved as the term “code official” may not be the authority with regard to historic
buildings. In addition, the use of the term “authority having jurisdiction” is a more appropriate term than “applicable governing authority.” There was a suggestion that a definition for “authority having jurisdiction” would be useful.

EB 48-15	1204.1.3
410.9.3	Modifies text of Section 410.9.3 “Entrances”, 1204.1.3 “Entrances”. There is a series of proposals intended to coordinate the provisions in the first and second options in the IEBC.  Requirements for toilet rooms in Sections 410.9.3 and 1204.1.3 should match.  The term 'public' is used in ADA instead of 'main'. The term 'nonpublic' is removed from exception 1 so that this can be any entrance to the building; also this is consistent with Exception 2. Adding the signage reference is consistent with Entrances in Sections 410.8.1 and 705.1.1.

EB 49-15	(New) 410.8.11
(New) 806.3	Modifies text of Section 410.8.10 “Toilet rooms”. Adds new Section 410.8.11 “Additional toilet and bathing facilities”, 806.3 “Toilet and bathing facilities”.

The current text is unclear where a family or assisted use toilet room needs to be added within a facility. There is a
correlative change to Section 410.8.10 and 705.1.9 to separate this bathroom from where a unisex bathroom is permitted as an option when the men's and women's bathrooms cannot be made accessible.  410.8.11 The language of the requirement is changed to make it clear that the intent is to provide a family or assisted-use toilet
room when it would normally be required by Section 1109.2.1 of the IBC. The manner in which it is currently written, the text seems to imply that the family or assisted-use toilet room would be required regardless of the occupancy classification of the facility. If so, it would impose a requirement more strict than that for new construction. 806.3 The same language as shown in the revised Section 410.8.11 is being added to the Work Area method for Level 2 Alterations. It seems only appropriate that the requirement should apply to both methodologies.

Cost Impact: Will increase the cost of construction.  The added requirement to the work area method will increase the cost of construction for some buildings.

This section was deleted from Chapter 4 (when it was IBC Chapter 34) by E95-01. All alterations should be affected by the building code in the same manner.

EB 71-15	1401.2	Modifies 1401.2 “Applicability”. The "Structures existing prior to [DATE TO BE INSERTED BY THE JURISDICTION. Note: it is recommended that this date coincide with the effective date of building codes within the jurisdiction]" is language that is appropriate for Chapter 1 but is not appropriate for Chapter 14. By having this language in Chapter 14, it potentially creates a conflict with the Chapter 101.4 language and that definition of Existing Buildings. At the very least, the existing language in this section can create confusion and provides no additional value. The applicability language in Chapter 14 should focus on how the provisions of this specific chapter are applied. The issue of when the code is adopted is already covered in 101.4 and the model adoption language.  This proposal eliminates the potential conflict by defaulting to the Chapter 1 language and the definition of existing building.

Cost Impact: Will not increase the cost of construction
This is an editorial change and will not increase the cost of construction.

	1401.2.3	Modifies text of Section 1401.2.3 “Additions”. For additions in this context we only need to refer back to the IBC and IRC. This code does not have provisions for new construction but is focused on existing buildings. These revisions are needed to correlate with the 2015 IBC that deleted Chapter 34 on existing buildings. This is considered a clarification of the application of the IEBC as it pertains to additions and will not change anything that is now required by the I Codes.  The code change was further modified by the Committee. The modification changed the reference to the two codes from “and” to “or.” As originally drafted it would technically require compliance with both codes. The intention was to comply with one or the other. 

Cost Impact: Will not increase the cost of construction
This proposal will not increase the cost of construction as this revision is only a clarification of the current provisions.

EB 75-15	1401.2.5	Modifies text of Section 1401.2.5 “Accessibility requirements”. The current reference does not pick up the accessibility provisions for Level 2 and 3, additions or allowances for historic buildings when using the performance compliance method. The performance compliance method should be required to have the same level of access as any other alteration. Technical infeasibility and the 20% maximum rule for the accessible route costs would still be applicable.
Per staff note, an errata was corrected to this section. The reference to Section 605 was revised to Section 705. It is shown as current code text.
