9、national Residential Code, International Wildland-Urban Interface Code, International Zoning Code and International Code Council PerformanceCode.The I-Codes, including this International Swimming Pool and Spa Code, are used in a variety ofways in both the public and private sectors. Most industry pr

10、ofessionals are familiar with the I-Codes as the basis of laws and regulations in communities across the U.S. and in other countries.However, the impact of the codes extends well beyond the regulatory arena, as they are used in avariety of nonregulatory settings, including: Voluntary compliance prog

11、rams such as those promoting sustainability, energy efficiencyand disaster resistance. The insurance industry, to estimate and manage risk, and as a tool in underwriting and ratedecisions. Certification and credentialing of individuals involved in the fields of building design, con-struction and saf

12、ety. Certification of building and construction-related products. U.S. federal agencies, to guide construction in an array of government-owned properties. Facilities management. “Best practices” benchmarks for designers and builders, including those who are engaged inprojects in jurisdictions that d

13、o not have a formal regulatory system or a governmentalenforcement mechanism. College, university and professional school textbooks and curricula. Reference works related to building design and construction.In addition to the codes themselves, the code development process brings together building pr

14、o-fessionals on a regular basis. It provides an international forum for discussion and deliberationabout building design, construction methods, safety, performance requirements, technologicaladvances and innovative products.DevelopmentThis 2018 edition presents the code as originally issued, with ch

15、anges as reflected in the 2015 edi-tion and further changes approved by the ICC Code Development Process through 2017. A new edi-tion such as this is promulgated every 3 years.This code is founded on principles intended to establish provisions consistent with the scope of aswimming pool and spa code

16、 that adequately protects public health, safety and welfare; provisionsthat do not unnecessarily increase construction costs; provisions that do not restrict the use of newmaterials, products or methods of construction; and provisions that do not give preferential treat-ment to particular types or c

17、lasses of materials, products or methods of construction.iv 2018 INTERNATIONAL SWIMMING POOL AND SPA CODEMaintenanceThe International Swimming Pool and Spa Code is kept up to date through the review of proposedchanges submitted by code enforcement officials, industry representatives, design professi

18、onalsand other interested parties. Proposed changes are carefully considered through an open codedevelopment process in which all interested and affected parties may participate.The ICC Code Development Process reflects principles of openness, transparency, balance, dueprocess and consensus, the pri

19、nciples embodied in OMB Circular A-119, which governs the federalgovernments use of private-sector standards. The ICC process is open to anyone; there is no cost toparticipate, and people can participate without travel cost through the ICCs cloud-based app, cdp-Access. A broad cross section of inter

20、ests are represented in the ICC Code Development Process.The codes, which are updated regularly, include safeguards that allow for emergency action whenrequired for health and safety reasons.In order to ensure that organizations with a direct and material interest in the codes have a voicein the pro

21、cess, the ICC has developed partnerships with key industry segments that support theICCs important public safety mission. Some code development committee members were nomi-nated by the following industry partners and approved by the ICC Board: Association of Pool and Spa Professionals (APSP) America

22、n Institute of Architects (AIA)The code development committees evaluate and make recommendations regarding proposedchanges to the codes. Their recommendations are then subject to public comment and council-widevotes. The ICCs governmental memberspublic safety officials who have no financial or busin

23、essinterest in the outcomecast the final votes on proposed changes.The contents of this work are subject to change through the code development cycles and by anygovernmental entity that enacts the code into law. For more information regarding the code devel-opment process, contact the Codes and Stan

24、dards Development Department of the InternationalCode Council.While the I-Code development procedure is thorough and comprehensive, the ICC, its membersand those participating in the development of this code disclaim any liability resulting from the pub-lication or use of the I-Codes, or from compli

25、ance or noncompliance with their provisions. The ICCdoes not have the power or authority to police or enforce compliance with the contents of thiscode.Code Development Committee Responsibilities(Letter Designations in Front of Section Numbers)In each code development cycle, code change proposals to

26、this code are considered at the Commit-tee Action Hearing by the International Swimming Pool and Spa Code Development Committee,whose action constitutes a recommendation to the voting membership for final action on the pro-posed change. Code change proposals to sections of the code that are preceded

27、 by a bracketed let-ter designation, such as A, will be considered by a committee other than the Swimming Pool andSpa Code Development Committee. For example, proposed changes to Section A 102.1 will beconsidered by the Administrative Code Development Committee during the Committee ActionHearings in

28、 the 2019 (Group B) code development cycle.The bracketed letter designations for committees responsible for portions of this code are as fol-lows:A = Administrative Code Development Committee; andBS = IBCStructural Code Development CommitteeFor the development of the 2021 edition of the I-Codes, the

29、re will be two groups of code devel-opment committees and they will meet in separate years. Note that these are tentative groupings.2018 INTERNATIONAL SWIMMING POOL AND SPA CODEvCode change proposals submitted for code sections that have a letter designation in front ofthem will be heard by the resp

30、ective committee responsible for such code sections. Because differ-ent committees hold Committee Action Hearings in different years, proposals for this code will beheard by committees in both the 2018 (Group A) and the 2019 (Group B) code development cycles.Note that every section of Chapter 1 of t

31、his code is designated as the responsibility of the Admin-istrative Code Development Committee, and that committee is part of the Group B portion of thecode hearings. This committee will hold its code development hearings in 2019 to consider all codechange proposals for Chapter 1 of this code and pr

32、oposals for Chapter 1 of all I-Codes except theInternational Energy Conservation Code, International Residential Code and International GreenConstruction Code. Therefore, any proposals received for Chapter 1 of this code will be assigned tothe Administrative Code Development Committee for considerat

33、ion in 2019.It is very important that anyone submitting code change proposals understand which code devel-opment committee is responsible for the section of the code that is the subject of the code changeproposal.
