FRC, IRC and the 5th Edition “Curing” Requirements
July 9, 2015 - There is a lot of noise in the system lately regarding the
“new” curing paragraph with the FRC (703.6.5). Actually, this paragraph is not
new at all. It has been a part of the IRC since most of the old codes were
combined into one years ago. It was
specifically redacted by Florida from the base version of the IRC at the time
it was adopted as the basis of the new FRC. Why?
