This May join a diverse coalition of corporations, nonprofits, government agencies and professionals in the building industry to support the 38th annual Building Safety Month. Presented by the International Code Council, this global campaign reminds us of the importance of building codes in protecting our families and communities.
Building codes are often the difference between preservation or destruction and life or death. Modern codes and standards incorporate the latest technology and provide the safest, most resilient structures to protect against building failures, hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, fires and other disasters. Building codes save lives.
