The purpose of a national building code is to establish standardized regulations that ensure the safety, health, and welfare of the public in construction and building practices. It provides guidelines for design, construction, and occupancy, addressing aspects such as structural integrity, fire safety, and accessibility. By enforcing these standards, the code helps prevent disasters, promotes sustainability, and enhances the overall quality of the built environment. Additionally, it facilitates consistency across jurisdictions, making it easier for builders and developers to comply with regulations.
