Building Code Research
AI-powered research and interpretation of building codes and standards.
Definition
Building Code Research uses AI to help architects and engineers quickly find and understand relevant building code requirements. Unlike keyword search in PDFs, AI-powered code research understands natural language questions and returns relevant code sections with interpretive context. Users can ask questions like 'what are the fire separation requirements between assembly and business occupancies' and get cited answers from applicable codes.
