Outlines and discusses the processes used by the design/construction professional and the building/municipal code official in bringing a project to the occupancy stage. Using codes (without being code specific) as a common document, the book shows how and why there may be serious problems of lack of understanding between the parties involved. It shows how to avoid these problems by allowing the reader to see him/herself as part of the larger regulatory system and by facilitating a greater understanding of that system. Guides the reader in seeking more information (specific to his/her area of work), better procedures, and more detail of this system as a whole. Useful to both sets of professionals since there is no formal exposure to codes.
