The Facade Inspection and Repair Laws Keeping Cities Safe
More than a dozen U.S. cities have enacted laws requiring periodic inspection and repair of exterior walls, and others are likely to join the growing list. With so many buildings covered under facade rules, owners and design professionals need to know not just the basics of compliance, but also the nuances that differ from one city and inspection period to the next.
Includes New York City Local Law 11 Facade Inspection Safety Program, Boston Ordinance 9-9.12, Philadelphia PM-315, Chicago Exterior Wall Program, and more.
