State building code: 2018 IBC, IRC, International Existing Building Code and Uniform Plumbing Code (Neb. Rev. Stat. 71-6403, last amended by LB131 in 2021). Enforced by Counties, cities and villages that adopt a code (Neb. Rev. Stat. 71-6406); the statutes name no state enforcing agency. Checked on the primary source; the state record was last reviewed 2026-11-12.
Counties, cities and villages may adopt the state code or one that conforms generally with it. If none adopts a code within two years after a state code update, the state code applies there, except construction on a farm or for farm purposes (71-6406). 2026 LB800 was indefinitely postponed, so the 2018 editions stand.
