Code review?  2007-11-12
Hey people, aren't computers smart? Amazon wants me to review a code book. What the f@#$. It's needed in my job. That's why I bought it.
What a joke...  2007-06-05
Interesting the similarities between the last Virginia Plumbing Code and the first International Plumbing code, eh? It's not coincidence.
It appears that the "International Code Council"... located in Virginia, no less... had a stroke of brilliance. They produced a gem of a name for their book- the "International" Plumbing Code. What? They using these codes in Mexico? Ecuador? France?
A good name sells anything. This book is a ridiculous reduction of plumbing codes, stuffed into a few pages. It's obvious very few contemporary issues are addressed. Unfortunately, bureaucrats aren't plumbers... which is why several states have adopted it as their new gospel on plumbing, and the International Code Council's dreams are becoming reailty. I've had multiple discussions with individuals "just so excited that someone finally took up the task to umbrella "all" the plumbing codes into one national code... so we can all be on the same page now... like the National Electrical Code!"
Absolutely hysterical
It is what it is.  2007-04-07
The "code", in this case plumbing, is essentially an overpriced, legal document.
Most states have created their own version of plumbing code with many, major municipalities adding restrictions at local levels.
Whereas in a perfect world, "the" plumbing code would rigorously define a system of best practices - our United States, plumbing codes reflect insurance companies' interests in establishing a safe ( reasonably, low level of liability) datum.
The "code" is written by attorney's in cooperation with plumbers, builders, supplier's of materials and various, other, self interest groups.
It is vague, possesses no visual representations, poorly indexed, unreferenced and in many cases a hinderance to the adoption of new materials and design.
It is at best marginally practical.
However - because there is no popular movement to make the code "more accessible -" we are stuck with it.
It is what it is!
just good enought for name sake 2007-03-19
with 148, the book didn't really go into detail into why some of the codes were wrote certain ways. I've read many other code book and they offer explanation into why its a certain way. This book doesn't make the code relatable so its going to feel cold to read, just bare details.
