Rehabilitating Rehab Through State Building Codes, Sara Bronin Jan 2006

Rehabilitating Rehab Through State Building Codes, Sara Bronin

Faculty Articles and Papers

Building codes are not neutral documents. Traditional codes have the effect of deterring the rehabilitation of older structures. But rehabilitation-which can have many positive effects, especially on cities - should be encouraged, not deterred. One promising method of encouraging rehabilitation has been the adoption of "rehabilitation codes": building codes that establish flexible but clear requirements for renovators. After analyzing traditional building codes and three different rehabilitation codes, this Note concludes that more states should adopt mandatory rehabilitation codes.
