- Abstract
- To assist the states in developing their building regulatory activities and functions, the Coordinated Evaluation System (CES) Project has defined and developed model informational documentation pertaining to the functional areas of data submision, evaluation, approval, compliance assurance, installation data, and owner information. This is a preliminary report which gives the results of the investigation to date, and presents discussions of informational needs and sample model documents pertaining to manufactured buildings and building components. The model documentation is based on the Model rules and Regulations for Manufactured buildings developed by a Department of Commerce sponsored working task group, and the results of a comprehensive state-of-the-art study of most of the existing state building regulatory programs. The documentation presented in this report covers all functional areas except owner information which is not usually subject to regulation and will be covered by a separate report. Emphasis was placed on developing documentation applicable primarily to one and two family detached dwellings. Based on the comments receives on this preliminary report, the documentation presented herein will be revised and a final report issued.
