From the Author
Help with Building Codes.
I have been a building inspector for eleven years. After ten years of writing the same corrections day in and day out, I started compiling some lists of the most common code violations from the UBC, UPC, UMC, NEC and CABO model codes. This book is designed to be used in the field by anyone involved in residential construction. The waterproof lamination makes this as much a tool as it is a book.
