What are the benefits to regulators of building products and systems?
Code officials will benefit from this new program through: • Added assurance that building products and systems meet the rigorous testing requirements of both ICC-ES and UL. ICC-ES, moreover, evaluates the products for code compliance. • Simultaneous posting of listed products, for easy access, on the websites of both ICC-ES and UL. • Access to UL’s code correlation database, the only database of its kind in the industry. This database directly connects the listings with specific code sections, to assist AHJs in their code compliance decisions and acceptance of certified products. Additionally, the database allows designers and installers to easily find code-complying products. • Embedded dual listing information in electronic versions of the International Codes.
