Codes and Documents Listed for Block Walls in Idaho Falls

What block wall work in Idaho Falls actually involves

the City of Idaho Falls' Building page lists, under Documents, Codes & Resources, the 2018 International Residential Code, the 2018 International Energy Conservation Code, the 2018 International Fire Code, the 2018 Property Maintenance Code, the 2018 Swimming Pool and Spa Code, the 2018 International Existing Building Code and the 2018 International Building Code. The saved page carries the titles, not the codes, so this site states nothing from any of them.

The documents

The same list names a New Residential Remodel, Construction and Addition Permit Checklist, a New Commercial Remodel and Tenant Improvement, Construction and Addition Permit Checklist, City of Idaho Falls Geographic Design Criteria, Clear View Requirements, Required Inspections for New Residential Home and How to Obtain a Certificate of Occupancy. A title is not a requirement, so this site does not read one into it.

The City Code index

The City's City Code page, as saved, is an index of links to PDFs. It lists Title 7, Building Regulations, whose chapters run from the International Building Code (Chapter 1) to Enforcement (Chapter 13), and it lists Title 10, Planning and Zoning, and Title 11, Comprehensive Zoning, whose chapters include General Regulations, Land Use Regulations and Zoning Regulations. It states no rule, and the PDFs behind the links are not saved, so this site cannot say whether any of them speaks to a wall.

A list of code titles is not the code. If a wall is covered by any of them, the City's building office can say which. The Idaho Falls page takes one of the listed documents, the Geographic Design Criteria, and says what its title leaves open.
