Why is this important to your readers?
The call for committee members is the first step in the Code Council’s code development process for its International Codes® (I-Codes), a coordinated, modern set of building codes used in all 50 U.S. states and many countries worldwide. For more than 90 years, participation on the committees has been on a volunteer basis and professionals from all related fields such as code officials, contractors, architects, engineers and home builders are encouraged to apply to serve on the committees that preside over the Committee Action Hearings.
Due to the extensive expertise of these committees, the I-Codes are the most widely used and highly regarded set of building safety codes in the world. The I-Codes provide a minimum safeguard for people at home, at school, at play and in the workplace. This is a great opportunity to help protect the lives of almost 2 billion people globally.
The application deadline for all committees is June 1, 2023. You can learn more and apply for these committees here.
