The complete February 2010 edition of the 2008 Port of San Francisco Building Code adopts and amends the 2007 edition of the California Building Code, which incorporates by adoption, the 2006 edition of the International Building Code with California amendments. Effective Date: June 15, 2010 This February 2010 edition of the 2008 Port of San Francisco Building Code amends and incorporates supplements to the January 1, 2008 edition. In addition these supplements contain errata and changes without regulatory effect. The errata correct misprints of building standards currently in effect, while the changes without regulatory effect correct inconsequential oversights contained in the January 1, 2008 edition. Due to the fact that the application date for a building permit establishes the standards and provisions that are effective, which apply to the plans, specifications, and construction for that permit, it is strongly recommended that interested parties retain a copy the January 1, 2008 edition of the Port of San Francisco Building Code for historical purposes. PUBLISHERS NOTE Original PBC language is set in ordinary Arial type, such as this note is set in. Amendments and Supplements are set in boldface. Deletions with regulatory effect within a section of text are marked with a diamond symbol (?). Explanatory remarks appearing in italics are provided at the beginning of each amendment indicating whether the Port of San Francisco Amendment to the 2007 California Building Code is adding, revising, or replacing a section or portion of a section. 2007 California Building Code (Which incorporates the 2006 International Building Code) + } 2008 Port of San Francisco Building Code February 2010 edition 2008 Port of San Francisco Amendments February 2010 edition TABLE OF CONTENTS CHAPTER 1 (California) GENERAL CODE PROVISIONS…………………………………….……… 17 CHAPTER 1A ADMINISTRATIVE……...………………………………
