ICC Existing Building Code IEBC 2009
ICC Existing Building Code IEBC 2009
(OP)
I am inspecting an existing 40 foot high brick building that is 85 years old on the verge of collapse. Vertical cracks I found are 2 inches wide. NJDCA has its own Rehab Code however if during construction unsound or deficient elements are uncovered I must then structurally comply IBC 2006. Construction is now about 70% done. For these repairs can I use the 2009 IEBC that is now available. See the link below for its description. Any tips will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Take a look at the link below for the ASCE41-06 Code. On page one it indicates that approval by ANSI means that it can be referenced with no amendment by local codes required. IEBC 2003, IEBC 2006 and now 2009 is available. I think that the building offical would accept it in lieu of following IBC 2006 for a building that is 85 years old.

As I read Section 304.2.1 under Repairs and Evaluation the building must first be COMPLIANT for wind load and 75% of the seismic load. You are correct about "pre-damage state". The old building I am inspecting is on the verge of collapse. How was "dangerous" defined in IEBC 2006. Thanks.
