CBC FAQ

Not yet. Nomic lists CBC as coming soon. Nomic agents already check drawings against 42 supported building code standards, including NFPA 221 and IBC. CBC is adopted by 5 jurisdictions in Nomic's code data.

On a typical drawing set, reviewers check occupancy classification, construction type, and allowable height and area; means of egress: occupant load, exit count, exit width, travel distance, and common path; fire-resistance-rated assemblies, separations, and the openings and penetrations through them; accessibility of routes, entrances, toilet rooms, and other required elements; consistency between the code analysis sheet and the floor plans.

Include the code analysis and life safety plans; floor plans, building sections, and wall types; rated assembly and penetration details; door and hardware schedules. The more of the set the review can see, the more cross-sheet conflicts it can catch.

No. Nomic agents work alongside architects, engineers, and code consultants by flagging likely issues with the code section cited, so the reviewer can confirm or dismiss each finding with less manual work. The licensed professional still owns the code interpretation, and the authority having jurisdiction still performs official plan review.
