Кентуккийский жилищный кодекс: третье издание, август 2024

The Kentucky Residential Code (KRC) is the 2015 International Residential Code for One and Two Family Dwellings published by the International Code Council, Inc., with the specific Kentucky amendments. It provides minimum standards to ensure the public safety, health, and welfare insofar as they are affected by building construction, and to secure safety to life and property from all hazards incident to the occupancy of buildings, structures, or premises. This edition presents the code with changes approved by the Kentucky Department of Housing, Buildings, and Construction through August 2024. The Kentucky Residential Code is a “mini/maxi” code, in that it establishes minimum and maximum building code requirements for detached single-family dwellings, two-family dwellings, and townhouses, and local governments shall not adopt or enforce any other building code on these units. The Kentucky Residential Code may be amended from time to time by the Department of Housing, Buildings, and Construction through the regulatory process by considering proposals from code enforcement officials, industry and design professionals, and other interested persons and organizations. Amendments are discussed during open meetings of the Housing, Buildings, and Construction Advisory Committee.
