Looking for an old BOCA code

[Yankee Chronicler]

I need a scan or a photo of the section from BOCA 1970 (or some year as close to 1970 as possible) on Certificates of Occupancy. For 1970 it was section 120.1 -- the number might be different in other years. I have the language from my state's adopted version, but we revised that section and I need the BOCA model code language as a comparison.

If anyone has access to an unedited BOCA Basic Building Code from 1970 or thereabouts, please contact me -- or just post a scan of it here. I'm trying to help out a fellow building official.

Thank you.

Maybe this thread will be helpful?

I have the 1970 BOCA Building, 1971 BOCA Mechanical, 1975 BOCA Building and Mechanical. Which code year do you want the information from?

I had seen that discussion before I posted. Not helpful. I don't need the entire 1970 BOCA code -- I need a scan or photo of just the page (or pages) with section 120.1 on it (them).

So the concept hasn't changed much....

People make fun of me since I still have old code books in the office. I have had some engineers ask if they can borrow my old versions. I guess I am just old school and still like paper and pencil

You need to have the old codes for renovation projects to see what was allowable or required when the building was constructed.
