The Code Check Series are condensed guides to the most commonly cited code violations encountered by building inspectors, contractors, do-it-yourselfers and homeowners. We have tried to emphasize the central safety principles that underlie building codes throughout the United States. Our hope is that you will find this web site a good basic resource for your building project.
Since 1995, with over one million copies sold, Code Check is the leader in deciphering the voluminous, complex and sometimes tedious world of codes, or as we say,"Code Check - Your key to the codes." |

Code Check 6th Edition
Our newest book in the Code Check series is endorsed by the ICC and is based upon both the 2006 and 2009 International Residential Code. It includes cross-references to the 2009 UMC and UPC, as well as the 2008 NEC. With so many codes, it is applicable in almost all jurisdictions in the United States. Aided by several upgraded and new illustrations, this book helps to quickly find relevant code information. It explains several of the changes in the new codes, including those for building setbacks, energy conservation, stair construction, gas tubing, clothes dryer exhaust, GFCIs, AFCIs, wiring methods, and more. It also includes the latest regulations for fire sprinklers that go into effect for all dwellings effective January 1, 2011. The book can be used as a reference, a field guide for inspections, and an educational tool.
