What Building Code Is Used In New York City??

What Building Code Is Used In New York City??

(OP)
Hi,
Can anyone tell me what Building Code Is Used In New York City??  Another forum indicated it was a modified version of the 2000 IBC. Is there an actual State Building Code, like there is in Massachusetts, or do they use parts of one code and reference you to a different code?

Where can I get this code?

Thanks

RE: What Building Code Is Used In New York City??

New York City has its own local codes, separate from New York State.

The second half of your question:

Go to: http//nyc.gov/citystore

then click on "municipal publications"
then click on "rules & regulations"

RE: What Building Code Is Used In New York City??

The City is considering the adoption of a modified version of IBC.

There is a NYS Building Code however, in NY City it only applies to NY State owned buildings.
