5、uction Internationally, code officiais recognize the need for a modem, up-to-date property maintenance code governing the maintenance of existing buildings. The International Property Maintenance Code, in this first edition, is designed to meet this need through model code regulations that contain c
6、lear and specific property maintenance requirements with required property improvement provisions. The International Property Maintenance Code was developed by the International Code Council (ICC) through a committee made of representatives from Building Officials and Code Administrators Internation
7、al, Inc. (BOCA), the International Conference of Building Officials (ICBO) and the Southern Building Code Congress International (SBCCI). It is designed to be compatible with the BOCA National Codes published by BOCA, the Uniform Codes published by ICBO, the Standard Codes published by SBCCI, and, e
8、ventually, all the International Codes published by the International Code Council. The Internationul Property Maintenance Code provides many benefits, among which is the model code development process that offers an international forum for code officials and other interested parties to discuss perf
9、ormance and prescriptive code requirements. This forum provides an excellent arena to debate proposed revisions. This model code also encourages international consistency in the application of provisions. Development The first draft of the International Property Maintenance Code was prepared in 1996
10、 by a development committee appointed by and consisting of representatives of BOCA, ICBO and SBCCI. The intent was to draft a comprehensive set of regulations for existing buildings that was consistent with and inclusive of the scope and content of the existing model property maintenance codes. Thes
11、e codes were the current editions of the BOCA National Property Maintenance Code, Uniform Code for Abatement of Dangerous Buildings, Unvbrm Housing Code, Uniform Code for Building Conservation (Chapters 4 and 7), Standard Housing Code, Standard Unsafe Buildings Abatement Code, and the Standard Exist
12、ing Buildings Code (maintenance provisions only), including any approved amendments thereto. Public Hearing In order to gain the views of property maintenance code users, industries and all other interested parties, the final draft of the International Property Maintenance Code was developed by util
13、izing the formal ICC Code Development Process. Hearings were conducted to consider proposed changes to the First Draft in April of 1997 at a joint meeting of BOCA, ICBO and SBCCI, in conjunction with the processing of proposed changes to the International Plumbing, Private Sewage Disposal and Mechan
14、ical Codes and the Second Draft of the International Zoning Code. Final action on the proposed changes was taken at the respective Annual Business Meetings of the three organizations, in accordance with the formal ICC Code Development Procedures. Adoption The International Property Maintenance Code
15、is available for adoption and use by jurisdictions internationally. Its use within a governmental jurisdiction is intended to be accomplished through adoption by reference in accordance with proceedings establishing the jurisdictions laws. At the time of adoption, jurisdictions should insert the app
16、ropriate information in provisions requiring specific local information, such as the name of the adopting jurisdiction. These locations are shown in bracketed words in small capital letters in the code and in the sample adoption ordinance. The sample adoption ordinance on page v addresses several ke
17、y elements of a code adoption ordinance, including the information required for insertion into the code text.

18、edure of the International Property Maintenance Code assures the highest degree of care, BOCA, ICBO, SBCCI, their members and those participating in the development of this code do not accept any liability resulting from compliance or noncompliance with the provisions given herein, for any restricti
19、ons imposed on materials or processes, or for the completeness of the text. BOCA, ICBO and SBCCI do not have power or authority to police or enforce compliance with the contents of this code. Only the governmental body that enacts the code into law has such authority. 1998 INTERNATIONAL PROPERTY MAI
