IMPORTANT UPDATE
Per NC.gov:
“Update: November 11, 2025 – As of this date, the conditions of Section 5.12 (b) (see page 2) have not been met. This means that the effective date of the 2024 Building Code will be more than 12 months away. The earliest possible date is January 1, 2027, but that date has not been confirmed.”
IMPORTANT UPDATE: All examinations pertaining to licenses will use the 2018 Editions of the Codes through at least March 31, 2026, and until such date that the 2024 codes are made effective. The NC Governor’s signature of the Disaster Recovery act has now delayed the effective date of the new codes for at least one year, meaning that the 2024 codes will not become effective until some time after April 1, 2026.
