International Residential Code 2003 (International Code Council Series);

The 2003 International Residential Code brings uniformity to construction of one- and two-family dwellings and townhouses up to three stories high. A comprehensive code for homebuilding, this book brings together all building, plumbing, mechanical, and electrical provisions for one- and two-family residences. It establishes minimum regulations using prescriptive provisions, and is founded on broad-based principles that make possible the use of new materials and building designs. This 2003 edition is fully compatible with all the International Codes published by the International Code Council (ICC).
