At the time of our conversation Rich Truitt worked for Harford County Maryland. He is now with the Internation Code Council. Rich began his career in the code world as a plan reviewer with Harford County, became the Chief Building Inspector and then served as the Deputy code Official. I met Rich through our mutual interest in the continual development of the International Energy Conservation Code, and our conversation is based on Approved Third Party Inspection Agencies and his experience working with third parties who are assisting with Energy code enforcement. The good, the bad, and the ugly.
Our conversation was long, so I broke it up into two parts. Part one introduces Rich and defines the IECC as a stand-alone code vs. the energy code in chapter 11 of the IRC. We also speak to how code officials, architects, builders are currently understanding how to work within the energy code, and finally we speak to sections in chapter one that come before the Approved Third-Party Inspection Agency section which we speak to in Part two of our conversation.
