NCTCOG Code Amendments:

NCTCOG's Regional Codes Coordinating Committee (RCCC) and its four advisory boards conducted multiple meetings to review the latest editions of the model codes to develop regional amendments. Their review and recommendations are endorsed by NCTCOG's Executive Board. Currently NCTCOG encourages jurisdictions in North Central Texas to adopt the following model construction codes along with their respective regional amendments as expeditiously as their local code adoption process will allow.

2015 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) NCTCOG Amendments were developed prior to the passage of House Bill 1736. Please note that effective September 1, 2016, there are 3 recommended amendments to the IECC that are deemed to be less stringent than the residential provisions of the code which will be the statewide minimum. Those code sections are the amendments to Table R402.1.2, Table R402.1.4 and Section R402.4.1.2 should not be considered a recommended amendment.
