New Standard Available on MEP Systems Used in Off-site Construction
The International Code Council, in partnership with the Modular Building Institute, has published ICC/MBI 1210-2023, Standard for Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing Systems, Energy Efficiency and Water Conservation in Off-site Construction. This American National Standard is now part of ICC/MBI’s existing series of off-site construction standards, including ICC/MBI 1200-2021 and ICC/MBI 1205-2021.
ICC/MBI Standard 1210 includes the componentization and modularization of elements of mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems and the incorporation of MEP systems in componentized, panelized or modularized building elements.
MEP elements used in off-site construction and opportunities to achieve increased energy efficiency and water conservation in the factory are addressed in this standard. Other areas addressed include the planning, designing, fabricating, transporting, assembly, approval and inspection of off-site constructed MEP elements within commercial and residential buildings.
