Construction Codes and Standards
Codes cannot readily address in detail every area of construction, so they address multiple resources on a subject, including standards. Standards supplement the code by establishing requirements that a method or material must meet. They cover all aspects of the design, engineering, and construction process.
IHS provides corporate wide desktop subscription access to Codes and Standards from over 370 leading Standards Developing Organizations (SDOs), along with 350,000 U.S. military standardization documents. Get the information you need at the moment you need it.
Construction Codes and Standards are available from ANSI, API, ASME, ASTM, AWS, BOCA, BSI, CSA, DIN, ICBO, ICC, IEEE, ISA, ISO, NEMA, NFPA, SBCCI, UL and many more. Many state specific building codes and accessibility manuals are also available. Join thousand's of others who enjoy:
