Keep current with the new 2004 Florida Building Code on CD
Based on the 2003 International Building Code, this new 2004 edition of The Florida Building Code does not include the Test Protocols for Hurricane Zones.

The Florida Building Code is adopted and updated with new editions triennially by the Florida Building Commission. It is amended annually to incorporate interpretations, clarifications and to update standards. Minimum requirements for permitting, plans review and inspections are established by the Florida Building Code, and local jurisdictions may adopt additional administrative requirements that are more stringent. Local technical amendments are subject to strict criteria established by Section 553.73, F.S. They are subject to commission review and adoption into the code or repeal when the code is updated triennially and subject to appeal to the Commission according to the procedures established by Section 55.73 F.S.

Nine Technical Advisory Committees (TACs), which are constituted consistent with American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Guidelines, review proposed code changes and clarifications of the Florida Building Code and make recommendations to the Commission. The TACs include: Joint Building Fire (a joint committee of the Commission and the State Fire Marshall); Building Structural; Plumbing and Fuel Gas; Mechanical; Electrical; Energy; Accessibility; Special Occupancy (state agency construction and facility licensing regulations); and Code Administration/Enforcement.

The Commission may only issue official code clarifications using procedures of Chapter 120, Florida Statutes. To obtain such a clarification, a request for a Declaratory Statement (DEC) must be made to the Florida Building Commission in a manner that establishes a clear set of facts and circumstances and identifies the section of the code in question. Requests are analyzed by staff, reviewed by the appropriate Technical Advisory Committee, and then the Florida Building Commission takes first action. Draft Declaratory Statements are subject to public comment and finalized by the Commission at its next meeting. These interpretations establish precedents for situations having similar facts and circumstances and are typically incorporated into the Florida Building Code in next code cycle.
