ICC 400 FAQ

Nomic lists the 2022 and 2017 editions of ICC 400 as coming soon.

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.
