California Building Code 2013 - Chapter 16 or 16A?
(OP)
The 2013 California Building Code has Chapters 16 & 16A for Structural Design. I am designing a non-building structure similar to buildings. Which chapter should I use for design? Chapter 16 Section 1601.1.1 specifies the scope of application as, "Community college buildings regulated by the Division of the State Architect-Structural Safety/Community Colleges (DSA-SS/CC) as listed in Section 1.9.2.2." Does this mean that all other structures are to be designed by Chapter 16A?
Thanks
Thanks

If you are looking for the definitions of the acronyms such as DSA-SS, OSHPD 1, etcetera, look in chapter 1 of the CBC. As other have said, your project is most likely covered by chapter 16.
