The International Residential Code (IRC) 2018 is a detailed set of regulations designed for the construction of one- and two-family dwellings. It covers all critical aspects of residential construction, including structural integrity, fire safety, plumbing, electrical, mechanical systems, energy efficiency, and accessibility. The IRC 2018 ensures that homes are built safely, sustainably, and in compliance with modern industry standards. This code is an essential tool for builders, contractors, architects, engineers, and code officials, providing clear guidelines to guarantee that residential buildings meet up-to-date safety, performance, and environmental standards.
