Which organization is not a founding member of the International Code Council?

• A. NFPA
• B. IAPMO
• C. BOCA
• D. SBCCI

Answer: (A)

The International Code Council came into existence in 1994 when three major building code organizations merged to create a single system of model codes: ICBO, BOCA, and SBCCI. Those three formed the founding membership of the ICC, unifying their codes into the I-Codes. Other organizations, like NFPA (which focuses on fire protection codes) and IAPMO (plumbing and mechanical codes), were not part of that founding merger. That’s why NFPA is the organization not a founding member of the ICC.
