No matter what stage your project is in or what type of structure you're working on, this resource provides the needed time-saving, code-verifying tool. Divided into four major sections, this book/CD package gives you checklists for the design stage, architectural documentation, structural documentation, and specifications. Provided in both print and computer-ready format, these checklists simplify record-keeping as well as compliance. This valuable tool reduces the need for time-wasting design changes, expensive construction change orders, and worseÑclaims that can result from failure to design and build according to code. Concise and easy to read and to use, the Uniform Building Code Manual is your key to quick and complete verification.
Book Description
Architects, builders, and related design professionals are required to design any structure to the minimum requirements set by applicable codes. Failure to design to code can mean expensive change orders during construction, delays, loss of client trust and respect, claims, and even litigation. This book reformats the Uniform Building Code requirements into four distinct job stages--all of which are addressed in checlists to be used on-site for quality control. This will be a valuable aid in ``decoding'' the arcane and unwieldy provisions of the UBC as it relates to individual projects at different stages.
