The Wisconsin Historical Society can verify the historic status of your property to allow you to use the Wisconsin Historic Building code as an alternate to regular code. The complete Wisconsin Building Code (Chapter 70 of the Department of Commerce’s Administrative code) is available on the Web. Do you have your own technical preservation question? Or maybe you know a good source for additional information on a topic noted above. If so, please share it with us.
