For contractors

The code in your pocket on site.

General contractors, framers, plumbers, electricians and HVAC subs use CodesWise on phone and tablet to answer code questions on site, before the framing inspector pulls up. Mobile-first, no flipping through a 1,300-page PDF on a 6-inch screen.

What it actually changes

You are on a Tuesday afternoon job site, the framing inspector is coming Thursday, and you need to know whether the open-tread stair you just hung is allowed. The actual answer depends on whether the stair serves more than the dwelling unit, whether risers are required, and how high the guard sits. Calling your code consultant takes a day.
