Definición

  • Building codes are the means by which local and state governments establish and enforce minimum construction standards to ensure public safety. They have the added benefit of helping to maintain property values by reducing negative externalities that can result from substandard structures and providing some level of consumer protection against poor construction practices. [Source: The Encyclopedia of Housing; Building Codes]
