ICC-ES Evaluation Committee Results The ICC-ES Evaluation Committee met June 2-4, in Birmingham, Alabama, to consider new or revised acceptance criteria. Eighteen agenda items were approved. Among the highlights: The 2009 International Codes have been revised for some products to require listing by an approved agency. These new requirements apply to sandwich panel adhesives under the ICC-ES Acceptance Criteria for Sandwich Panel Adhesives (AC05), to clay and concrete roof tile under the ICC-ES Acceptance Criteria for Clay and Concrete Tile (AC180), and to metal roof panels under the ICC-ES Acceptance Criteria for Metal Roofing (AC166). For sandwich panel adhesives, listing of the adhesive to ASTM D 5505, and, for clay and concrete tile and metal roof covering, listing for roof classification are needed. Report holders under these three criteria will be required, beginning July 2010, to provide evidence of listing with an approved agency, and evidence of a contractual agreement with an accredited inspection agency for inspections to verify conformance to the ICC-ES Acceptance Criteria for Quality Documentation (AC10). AC381 — Subterranean Termite Baiting Systems AC37 — Vinyl Siding AC377 — Spray-applied Foam Plastic Insulation An alternate proposal to the SPFA test method was discussed. The industry group was encouraged to continue development of the alternate method and to offer a revision for consideration at a future Evaluation Committee meeting. The acceptance criteria was also revised to expand the maximum density for low-density insulation from 1.0 pcf to 1.4 pcf. AC12 — Foam Plastic Insulation Securing of Steel Bar Reinforcement with Plastic Clips — The Evaluation Committee considered whether an acceptance criteria on these products should be considered by ICC-ES under its mandate to evaluate products that are covered by the International Codes. Given the concurrence of the committee, ICC-ES will be working with the proponent to develop a new criteria for these products. Several new acceptance criteria for proprietary structural products were approved. AC409 was approved for Composite Cold-formed Light-gage Steel and Masonry Lintels; AC413 was approved for Steel Cable and Fitting Assemblies for Seismic Sway Bracing of Nonstructural Components; and AC414 was approved for Mechanical Pinned Splices for Precast Prestressed Concrete Piles.
