North Carolina board recommends switch to six-year code update cycle

In a nine to six vote, the North Carolina State Building Code Council on March 11 approved moving the commercial building code (except for the electrical code) to a six-year cycle for updating instead of a three-year cycle. The electrical code will continue to be updated every three years, with the remainder of the commercial code mirroring the six-year residential code update approved last year.
