Product Description
The ICC ICCPC-2018 2018 ICC Performance Code for Buildings and Facilities is an essential reference for architects, engineers, code officials, consultants, designers, builders, and construction professionals who need a flexible code resource for performance-based building design and compliance. Published by the International Code Council, this code is especially valuable for projects where alternative methods, innovative materials, and nontraditional design approaches need to be evaluated within a recognized code framework.
Built for real-world design, review, and compliance use, the ICCPC-2018 supports professionals involved in advanced building projects, alternative design solutions, code analysis, and performance-based project planning. It serves as a practical working reference for teams that need a structured way to address building and facility requirements when prescriptive code language alone may not fully fit the project.
A major strength of the ICC Performance Code for Buildings and Facilities is its focus on results and measurable performance rather than relying only on prescriptive requirements. That makes it especially useful for projects involving unique building conditions, emerging technologies, specialized uses, or design strategies that benefit from a performance-based path. For professionals working on complex or innovative projects, this publication helps support clearer code reasoning and stronger alignment between design intent and compliance goals.
This edition is especially useful for professionals involved in:
Performance-based building design
Alternative methods and materials review
Advanced code analysis and project planning
Building and facility compliance support
Design innovation and technical coordination
Consultant, engineer, and code official reference use
Because the ICCPC is part of the ICC family of codes, it is a strong addition for professionals and organizations that already rely on ICC publications for building and compliance work. It is also a useful reference for jurisdictions, consultants, and project teams handling technically complex or nontraditional building designs.
At 213 pages, this is a focused and practical technical reference. It provides enough depth for serious professional use while remaining manageable for regular office, review, and training reference.
