NADRA Code Committee Update
Mark Guthrie, Randy Shackelford; PE, and John Kozal; PE from NADRA’s Main Code Committee attended the 2027 ICC Code hearings in Orlando, Florida the week of April 28th to hear proposals that pertain to the decking and railing industry.
In order to get ready for the hearings, NADRA’s Main Code Committee reviewed the recommendations from the Decking Code Subcommittee headed by Jon Levey and the Railing Code Subcommittee headed by Gary Kauffman.
