International Building Codes and Guidelines for Interior Design presents codes and regulatory guidelines as an opportunity for design creativity. Codes and guidelines are taught in the context of interior design planning and problem solving using illustrated case studies, providing a means for students to learn how to effectively incorporate these requirements into their design planning. The book is divided into two parts, the first of which provides an overview of building codes and standards, and includes a description of the permitting process, document submission, and compliance and occupancy of the built project. The second part of the book is comprised of case studies illustrating all of the major codes areas. These case studies include REVIT rendered illustrations of important details, exercises practicing key concepts, and end-of-chapter compliancy checklists. Throughout the book, specific emphasis is placed on the International Green Building Code.
