{"product_id":"2018-international-residential-code-for-international-code-council-9781609837372","title":"2018 International Residential Code for One- And Two-Family Dwellings","description":"This comprehensive code comprises all building, plumbing, mechanical, fuel gas and electrical requirements for one- and two-family dwellings and townhouses up to three stories. The IRC contains many important changes such as: An updated seismic map reflects the most conservative Seismic Design Category (SDC) based on any soil type and a new map reflects less conservative SDCs when Site Class A, B or D is applicable. The townhouse separation provisions now include options for using two separate fire-resistant-rated walls or a common wall. An emergency escape and rescue opening is no longer required in basement sleeping rooms where the dwelling has an automatic fire sprinkler system and the basement has a second means of egress or an emergency escape opening. The exemption for interconnection of smoke alarms in existing areas has been deleted. New girder\/header tables have been revised to incorporate the use of #2 Southern Pine in lieu of #1 Southern Pine. New tables address alternative wood stud heights and the required number of full height studs in high wind areas.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e International Code Council\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1609837371\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781609837372\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e International Code Council\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.40w x 1.90d","brand":"International Code Council","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44045769965823,"sku":"9781609837372","price":187.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_60c52653-a808-434a-a63f-7313c11f327c.jpg?v=1684980652","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/2018-international-residential-code-for-international-code-council-9781609837372","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
