Free ICC Codes?

[FM William Burns]

I noticed the other day my old link to the ICC free access of codes has changed and now they are all by year and single view only :-(

Anyone else notice the same and is there any other "free" access to get to the multiple codes?

Cheap FMWB

Not very accurate. We never adopted the 2009 IRC and have been under the 2012 editions for over 18 months

Must've been a revenue drop in the sales office... They actually killed the link to NYS's current code! LOL

Man we had some good years though........ now I have to type again.........damn!

You can still copy and paste many of the codes on the link Francis posted

You can still copy and paste many of the codes on the link Francis posted

It does seem to kill the formatting though....

I had the links on my town website and changed it to what Francis wrote. Thank you! I did notice that the NFPA codes are blocked on that site though.

I found a good enough work-a-round for now.... for the cash cow's own link..........remember I'm a firefighter we do things on the fly due to dwindling budgets I do a lot of plan reviews and have a great snap shot tool so now I can still copy and paste.

I have one also, it is called "Snippet", downside is you can't edit,but is still handy.

NS,

I'll ask my IT buddy who installed it for me I never asked the name of it but it works excellent and slick. Works for everything too. I'll pass it on next week.

In California Building Standards has finally published their codes for mass consumption, I don't know what they are doing about the ICC copyright issues but suspect they may be paying the ICC a blanket fee. Here is the link.

On the issue of taking images I have used Snagit, when I first found out about it 16 years ago it was free along with a request for a donation, with every upgrade I ignored the donation until I felt so guilty that I started voluntarily donating, it's the only free program that I have ever made the requested donation, they now charge for it but there is still a free trial period.

How do you get it to open up in word FV?

 

[Francis Vineyard]

steveray following the illustrations above, open with Internet Explorer, click File in the Menu Bar, click Edit with Microsoft Word in the drop down menu, right click then copy, paste to word document. May have to play with the formats to get it to cut and paste as desired.

I don't have a menu bar...Apparently I suck at IE...

We will make a YouTube for you

 

[Francis Vineyard]

steveray try right click on top of IE; should have an option to check menu bar

Ok guys & maybe some girls..........here is the "free" software I use to snapshot stuff like the codes now or anything else: It's called (greenshot) and it is fantastic and very easy to install and use. Just remember to only keep the top 2 boxes checked in the pop up dialog box when configuring how to use it! You can open it in everything. ENJOY!
