25
A New Model Code The International Building Code
(IBC)
  • The successor to the current model code
    (Uniform Building Code) is the International
    Building Code (IBC)
  • DSA is proposing that the existing California
    accessibility provisions be relocated into the
    IBC with a new Chapter 11B, similar to past
    practices and their existence in the current
    model code. Model code Chapter 11 will not
    apply

26
A New Model Code The International Building Code
(IBC) (continued)
  • DSA is preparing a May 2006 submission to the
    California Building Standards Commission
  • Possibly effective early 2008?

27
ADA Certification What Is It?
  • Title III of the Americans with Disabilities
    Act (ADA) authorizes the United States
    Department of Justice to certify that local
    building codes meet or exceed the ADA
    Standards for Accessible Design

28
ADA Certification What Is It? (continued)
  • Congress, by authorizing the certification of
    state and local accessibility requirements,
    recognized the important role that state and
    local building codes and standards may play in
    achieving compliance with the building-related
    aspects of accessibility

29
ADA Certification What Is It? (continued)
  • Building officials involved in plan approval
    and inspection may provide important
    assistance to construction and design
    professionals through their oversight of the
    accessibility requirements of a certified
    state code

30
ADA Certification Advantages
  • Business owners, builders, developers,
    architects, and others are benefited because
    once a building code is certified, they can refer
    to certified code requirements and rely upon
    them for equivalency with the ADA

31
ADA Certification Advantages (continued)
  • When designing, constructing, or altering a
    building in accordance with a building code
    that has been certified by the Department of
    Justice, the designer or contractor will need to
    consult only that one code, in order to
    determine the applicable federal and state
    accessibility requirements

32
ADA Certification Advantages (continued)
  • The covered entity will have some degree of
    assurance in advance of new construction or
    alterations that the ADA requirements will be
    met
  • In a legal challenge that might be brought
    under the ADA, compliance with the certified
    code constitutes rebuttable evidence of
    compliance with Title III of the ADA

33
ADA Certification Advantages (continued)
  • Litigation can be reduced, particularly if a
    state or local code agency has an
    administrative method of effectively handling
    complaints concerning violations

34
ADA Certification Status
  • In September 2002, DSA submitted the 2001
    edition of the California Building Code along
    with a 265 page side-by-side analysis to the
    United States Department of Justice (USDOJ)
  • The side-by-side analysis contained proposed
    revisions and additions to the California
    Building Code that were considered necessary
    in order to establish equivalency with the ADA
    Standards for Accessible Design

35
ADA Certification Status (continued)
  • In October 2004, the DSA received an initial
    response to the request for certification from
    USDOJ, containing approximately 800 comments
  • In May 2005, DSA submitted a Part 1 response
    addressing approximately 70 of the
    outstanding issues that were identified by
    USDOJ in October 2004

36
ADA Certification Status (continued)
  • In January 2006, DSA received USDOJ
    acceptance for nearly all of the Part 1 submittal
  • Public meetings are planned for Northern and
    Southern California in April 2006 to present
    proposed code changes
  • DSA is preparing a May 2006 submittal for
    the California Building Standards Commission

37
ADA Certification Status (continued)
  • Possibly effective early 2008?
  • DSA work continues on the remaining 30 of
    the outstanding issues
