construction codes
Structural safety standards
Construction codes are the regulations governing how buildings and structures must be designed and built.
They specify requirements for structural integrity, fire safety, electrical systems, plumbing, accessibility, and other aspects of construction.
Local governments adopt and enforce these codes, often based on model codes like the International Building Code.
