The International Code Council and the Center for Offsite Construction at the New York Institute of Technology are collaborating to develop a standard for modular construction through the creation of the “CFOC/ICC 1220 Standard on Configurations and Connections for Off-Site Construction.” The publication is expected to be finalized and made available by May 31, 2026.
The standard will address requirements for configuration and connections in off-site construction, including the location and specifications of module-to-module and building-to-module connections for essential building systems, the standardization of dimensions for modular components and coverage for componentized, panelized and modularized elements.
The standard will provide a framework for ensuring consistent quality and compatibility across projects. Once published, it will be available on the Code Council’s Digital Codes platform. For more information, visit the CFOC/ICC 1220 Standard webpage.
