14.05.101.2 Scope.

Section 101.2 (Scope) of the IBC shall be amended and replaced with the following:

Scope. The provisions of this code shall apply to the construction, alteration, movement, demolition, enlargement, repair, replacement, equipment, use and occupancy, location, maintenance, and removal of every building or structure or any appurtenances connected or attached to such buildings or structures.

Exceptions:

1. Work located primarily in a public way;

2. Work related to public utility towers and poles (not including wireless communication, radio, or television towers);

3. Amateur radio and citizen band support towers less than seventy feet (70') in height;

4. Mechanical equipment not specifically regulated in this code;

5. Hydraulic flood control structures;

6. Agricultural structures, defined as a structure designed and constructed to house farm, forestry, or winery implements, hay, grain, grapes, barrels, poultry, livestock or other horticultural or wood products. This structure may not be a place of human habitation, but can be used for occasional or seasonal processing, treating, or packaging of agricultural, forest, or winery products. Personal riding arenas not intended for use by the public are considered to meet this definition and, therefore, are outside the scope of the International Building Code; and

7. Detached one- and two-family dwellings and multiple single-family dwellings (town houses) not more than three stories above grade plane in height with a separate means of egress and their accessory structures, which shall instead comply with the International Residential Code adopted herewith.

101.2.1 Appendices. Provisions in the appendices shall not apply unless specifically adopted.
