Utah building codes

Utah adopts statewide construction codes through the Utah State Construction Code (Utah Code Title 15A), set by the Legislature under the Uniform Building Standards Act. Effective July 1, 2010, Utah adopted the 2009 editions of the International Building, Residential, Plumbing, Mechanical, and Energy Conservation Codes as the statewide minimum standards; Utah uses the ICC plumbing and mechanical codes. The model-code text below is the edition Utah adopted, before state amendments.

Where verbatim source text is shown, it is reproduced from the code as adopted into law by the jurisdiction, sourced from public.resource.org under the government edicts doctrine (see Georgia v. Public.Resource.Org, Inc., 590 U.S. 255 (2020)). This material reflects enacted law and is provided for reference and educational purposes only. It is not legal advice and may not reflect local amendments or the most recently adopted edition. Always verify requirements with the authority having jurisdiction.
