15. 2012 Outcome of 2012 IECC Residential Chapter Final Action Hearings
Analysis of ICF International
Based on estimates from the measures that were approved by the ICC’s Government Membership, the threshold of
30% energy savings of the 2012 IECC beyond the 2006 IECC was met or surpassed. Significant adopted changes
to the IECC include:
1. A better thermal envelope – i.e., window,
door, insulation – in all Climate Zones. In
2006, the number of climate zones in the IECC
was reduced to eight in an effort to shorten the
IECC, make it easier to use and employ a
common map for both commercial and
residential codes. The simplified map (shown
for the continental US) replaced many pages of
maps and commercial envelope tables and
allowed IECC users to easily determine the
requirements that apply anywhere in the US.
Note: Hawaii, Guam, Puerto Rico and the
Virgin Islands are in Climate Zone 1; Alaska is
in Climate Zones 7/8).
Final changes to insulation & fenestration component requirements are listed below (improvements over 2009
IECC are shaded in green):

* Floor and Slab insulations levels remain unchanged.
** Commonly available insulation in 2x6 cavity (R20) or in 2x4 cavity with sheathing (R13+x)
*** R5 continuous insulation or R13 for framed cavity insulation

Simplifying Construction!

26.  1” crown by 2” staples are the most common
and fastest way to install InsulStone™ over
sheathing.(see InsulStone installation guide for details)
™
 Washer head screws can be used to attach
directly to studs (16” centers) or to CMU or
concrete. (see InsulStone installation guide for details).
™

27. Determine the location of the starter and select 2 points with a laser level
at each side of the section of wall, mark and snap a line for the starter.

29. Step #1: Install the corners first and fill the field to the last
panel. (randomly locate the splices)
Step #2: Cut the 2 panels as illustrated to fit remaining space.
Use the left over piece for the splice in the next row.
Step #3: Apply adhesive to the foam only.
Step #4: Press the sections together as illustrated on right.
(Note: 2 colors of stone are used for illustration purposes only)

30.  Electrical Boxes and Hose Bibs are flat stones
designed for cover plate or light fixture
installation. The stone is mounted on foam the
same thickness as the stone. Use deck screws to
attach this accessory, then cut surrounding stones
to fit to the plate. Use adhesive to seal the cut
edges to the accessory plate.
