Construction Codes are a set of regulations that govern the design, construction, and maintenance of buildings and other structures. These codes ensure safety, health, and welfare for the public by establishing minimum standards for construction practices. They cover various aspects, including structural integrity, fire safety, plumbing, and electrical systems. Different regions may have their own specific Building Codes, which can vary based on local needs and environmental conditions. Compliance with these codes is typically enforced by local authorities, and failure to adhere can result in penalties or the need for costly modifications.
