Jeffrey M. Shapiro |
Pinpoint innovative technologies
and materials and the most current approaches to fire safety, life
safety, and fire prevention!
This "must-have" resource
identifies the significant changes that occurred between the 2003
and 2006 Editions of the International
Fire Code.
Coverage focuses squarely on
those provisions that have special significance, are utilized
frequently, or have had a change on the Code's application.
Not only does this approach
assist users in identifying the specific Code changes that have
occurred, it also aids readers in comparing the previous Code
language to the new text, and most importantly, fosters an
understanding of why the Code changed.
Features:
- coverage follows the general layout of the
International Fire Code, including Code sections and section
number format, to allow for quick identification of the
significant changes to the 2006 edition
- each change is accompanied by either a
photograph or an illustration to assist and enhance the reader's
understanding of the specific change
- offers a quick and accurate means for
identifying and understanding the changes from the previous
edition of the IFC and allows for an easy transition to the
new Code
- also useful as a valuable historical
reference for years to come in reviewing how and when the Code has
evolved
