Ohio Building Codes to be Revised in 2024

Effective March 1, 2024, Ohio building codes will be revised. There are significant changes to the commercial building code and minor changes to the residential code. Also, there will be significant changes to the electrical code that apply to both commercial and residential projects. This will not affect any projects under construction or applications in review before this date. If you are planning a new project, keep in mind that any projects submitted after March 1, 2024, will need to follow the new codes.
