BSC Law

The BSC is authorized by California Building Standards Law (Health and Safety Code Sections 18901 through 18949.6) to administer the processes related to the adoption, approval, publication, and implementation of California's building codes. These building codes serve as the basis for the design and construction of buildings in California.

Processes include, but are not limited to, the adoption/approval of model building codes that serve as the basis for California's building codes, the adoption/approval of building standards not addressed by model codes, and the publication of California's building codes.
