The 2018 International Residential Code (IRC)
The San Antonio Building Code 2021 is based on the International Building Code 2021 (IBC 2021) with amendments and additions.
Area codes 210 and 726 are telephone area codes in the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) for San Antonio and most of its innermost suburbs in Bexar County in the U.S. state of Texas. The original area code, 210, was created in an area code split from area code 512 in 1992.
A good place to start is the website for the local building department or zoning board. There you will find a list of the codes that apply to your area and information on how to comply with them.
In Texas, cities like Houston, Austin, and Dallas have adopted versions of the IRC with local amendments. For example, the 2018 International Residential Code is widely used in many Texas municipalities, though the 2021 IRC is being increasingly adopted in certain areas.
