7、ontain clear and spe-cific property maintenance and property improvement provisions. This 2018 edition is fully com-patible with all of the International Codes(I-Codes) published by the International CodeCouncil(ICC), including the International Building Code, International Energy ConservationCode,

9、Code, International Wildland-Urban Interface Code, Inter-national Zoning Codeand International Code Council Performance Code.The I-Codes, including this International Property Maintenance Code, are used in a variety ofways in both the public and private sectors. Most industry professionals are famil

10、iar with theI-Codes as the basis of laws and regulations in communities across the U.S. and in other countries.However, the impact of the codes extends well beyond the regulatory arena, as they are used in avariety of nonregulatory settings, including: Voluntary compliance programs such as those pro

11、moting sustainability, energy efficiencyand disaster resistance. The insurance industry, to estimate and manage risk, and as a tool in underwriting and ratedecisions. Certification and credentialing of individuals involved in the fields of building design, con-struction and safety. Certification of

12、building and construction-related products. U.S. federal agencies, to guide construction in an array of government-owned properties. Facilities management. “Best practices” benchmarks for designers and builders, including those who are engaged inprojects in jurisdictions that do not have a formal re

13、gulatory system or a governmentalenforcement mechanism. College, university and professional school textbooks and curricula. Reference works related to building design and construction.In addition to the codes themselves, the code development process brings together building pro-fessionals on a regu

14、lar basis. It provides an international forum for discussion and deliberationabout building design, construction methods, safety, performance requirements, technologicaladvances and innovative products.DevelopmentThis 2018 edition presents the code as originally issued, with changes reflected in the

15、 2003 through2015 editions and further changes developed through the ICC Code Development Process through2016. A new edition of the code is promulgated every 3 years.This code is intended to establish provisions that adequately protect public health, safety andwelfare; that do not unnecessarily incr

16、ease construction costs; that do not restrict the use of newmaterials, products or methods of construction; and that do not give preferential treatment to par-ticular types or classes of materials, products or methods of construction.iv 2018 INTERNATIONAL PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODEMaintenanceThe Inte

17、rnational Property Maintenance Code is kept up to date through the review of proposedchanges submitted by code enforcement officials, industry representatives, design professionalsand other interested parties. Proposed changes are carefully considered through an open codedevelopment process in which

18、 all interested and affected parties may participate.The ICC Code Development Process reflects principles of openness, transparency, balance, dueprocess and consensus, the principles embodied in OMB Circular A-119, which governs the federalgovernments use of private-sector standards. The ICC process

19、 is open to anyone; there is no cost toparticipate, and people can participate without travel cost through the ICCs cloud-based app, cdp-Access. A broad cross section of interests are represented in the ICC Code Development Process.The codes, which are updated regularly, include safeguards that allo

20、w for emergency action whenrequired for health and safety reasons.In order to ensure that organizations with a direct and material interest in the codes have a voicein the process, the ICC has developed partnerships with key industry segments that support theICCs important public safety mission. Som

21、e code development committee members were nomi-nated by the following industry partners and approved by the ICC Board: American Institute of Architects (AIA) National Association of Home Builders (NAHB)The code development committees evaluate and make recommendations regarding proposedchanges to the

22、 codes. Their recommendations are then subject to public comment and council-widevotes. The ICCs governmental memberspublic safety officials who have no financial or businessinterest in the outcomecast the final votes on proposed changes.The contents of this work are subject to change through the co

23、de development cycles and by anygovernmental entity that enacts the code into law. For more information regarding the code devel-opment process, contact the Codes and Standards Development Department of the InternationalCode Council.While the I-Code development procedure is thorough and comprehensiv

24、e, the ICC, its membersand those participating in the development of the codes disclaim any liability resulting from thepublication or use of the I-Codes, or from compliance or noncompliance with their provisions. TheICC does not have the power or authority to police or enforce compliance with the c

25、ontents of thiscode.Code Development Committee Responsibilities(Letter Designations in Front of Section Numbers)In each code development cycle, proposed changes to this code are considered at the CommitteeAction Hearings by the International Property Maintenance Code Development Committee, whoseacti

26、on constitutes a recommendation to the voting membership for final action on the proposedchanges. Proposed changes to a code section having a number beginning with a letter in bracketsare considered by a different code development committee. For example, proposed changes tocode sections that have th

27、e letter F in front of them (e.g., F 704.1) are considered by the Interna-tional Fire Code Development Committee at the Committee Action Hearings.The content of sections in this code that begin with a letter designation is maintained by anothercode development committee in accordance with the follow

28、ing:A = Administrative Code Development Committee;F = International Fire Code Development Committee;P = International Plumbing Code Development Committee;BE = IBCEgress Code Development Committee; andBG= IBCGeneral Code Development Committee.2018 INTERNATIONAL PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODEvFor the devel

29、opment of the 2021 edition of the I-Codes, there will be two groups of code devel-opment committees and they will meet in separate years.Code change proposals submitted for code sections that have a letter designation in front ofthem will be heard by the respective committee responsible for such cod

30、e sections. Because differ-ent committees hold Committee Action Hearings in different years, proposals for the IPMC will beheard by committees in both the 2018 (Group A) and the 2019 (Group B) code development cycles.For instance, every section of Chapter 1 of this code is designated as the responsi

31、bility of theAdministrative Code Development Committee, which is part of the Group B portion of the hearings.This committee will hold its Committee Action Hearings in 2019 to consider code change proposalsfor Chapter 1 of all I-Codes except the International Energy Conservation Code, International R

32、esi-dential Code and International Green Construction Code. Therefore, any proposals received forChapter 1 of this code will be assigned to the Administrative Code Development Committee for con-sideration in 2019.It is very important that anyone submitting code change proposals understand which code

33、 devel-opment committee is responsible for the section of the code that is the subject of the code changeproposal.

40、ed.Coordination of the International CodesThe coordination of technical provisions is one of the strengths of the ICC family of model codes.The codes can be used as a complete set of complementary documents, which will provide userswith full integration and coordination of technical provisions. Indi

41、vidual codes can also be used insubsets or as stand-alone documents. To make sure that each individual code is as complete as pos-sible, some technical provisions that are relevant to more than one subject area are duplicated insome of the model codes. This allows users maximum flexibility in their

42、application of the I-Codes.Italicized TermsWords and terms defined in Chapter 2, Definitions, are italicized where they appear in code text andthe Chapter 2 definition applies. Where such words and terms are not italicized, common-use defi-nitions apply. The words and terms selected have code-specif

43、ic definitions that the user should readcarefully to facilitate better understanding of the code.AdoptionThe International Code Council maintains a copyright in all of its codes and standards. Maintainingcopyright allows the ICC to fund its mission through sales of books, in both print and electroni

44、c for-mats. The ICC welcomes adoption of its codes by jurisdictions that recognize and acknowledge theICCs copyright in the code, and further acknowledge the substantial shared value of the public/pri-vate partnership for code development between jurisdictions and the ICC.The ICC also recognizes the

45、 need for jurisdictions to make laws available to the public. All I-Codes and I-Standards, along with the laws of many jurisdictions, are available for free in anondownloadable form on the ICCs website. Jurisdictions should contact the ICC at adop-tionsiccsafe.org to learn how to adopt and distribut
