International Mechanical Code 2018
IMC-2018 The International Mechanical Code 2018 is kept up to date through the review of proposed changes submitted by code enforcement officials, industry representatives, design professionals and other interested parties. Proposed changes are carefully considered through an open code development process in which all interested and affected parties may participate.

The ICC process is open to anyone; there is no cost to participate, and people can participate without travel cost through the ICC’s cloud-based app, cdp-
Access. A broad cross section of interests are represented in the ICC Code Development Process.
