This document provides selected wind-resistant provisions from the 2015 International Building Code (IBC), focusing on requirements for structural design, exterior walls, roof assemblies, and materials such as vinyl siding and metal composites. It outlines the organization and application of the IBC for all building types, with emphasis on wind load calculations, inspection protocols, and referenced standards like ASCE 7. The resource is intended for professionals involved in the design, construction, and inspection of buildings to ensure compliance with wind resistance criteria.
