Does Oregon adopt all of the ICC International Residential Code?
True
False
Partially
Only for commercial projects
The correct answer is: False
Oregon does not adopt the ICC International Residential Code in its entirety. Instead, the state has its own set of building codes that may align with or reference aspects of the ICC codes but are tailored to meet local needs, climate conditions, and other specific requirements pertinent to Oregon. This allows for flexibility and adaptability in addressing unique construction issues that may vary from the national standards set by the ICC. While certain parts of the ICC codes may be integrated into Oregon’s building regulations, the comprehensive adoption of the entire code is not the practice within the state, making this answer accurate.
