Abstract
ASHRAE 90.1, “Energy Standard for Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildings,” is referenced in the International Code Council®’s International Energy Conservation Code,® International Green Construction Code® and International Mechanical Code.® A new roofing project may need to meet ASHRAE 90.1 requirements if the building is located within a jurisdiction that enforces IECC or IgCC or has adopted ASHRAE 90.1 as the local energy code. The local building department where a project is located can provide the current adopted energy code and any local amendments.
