From the Back Cover
Achieve BOCA compliance using detailed checklists that cover all building codes. Avoid the time consuming design changes and expensive construction change orders, and claims that can result from a failure to design according to building codes. This invaluable book/CD* package "decodes" the unwieldy provisions of the BOCA code as they relate to individual projects at different stages--and makes compliance a cinch! The manual reformats the BOCA code requirements into five distinct project stages: initital code investigation, design development, architectural documentation, structural documentation, and specifications--and addresses each in checklists that you can use to ensure quality control. You'll also find a Code Information Form for initial documentation of code requirements--plus a Deficiency Worksheet for recording noncompliance items found during code review with the checklists.
