Virginia Building Code

Per the Virginia Housing and Community Development: 
The Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code (USBC) contains the building regulations that must be complied with when constructing a new building, structure, or an addition to an existing building. They must also be used when maintaining or repairing an existing building or renovating or changing the use of a building or structure. The USBC is comprised of three parts: Virginia Construction Code, Virginia Existing Building Code and Virginia Maintenance Code.

Louisa County currently follows the 2018 Virginia Building Code. Learn more below.
