The State Historical Building Code (SHBC) was created by legislation in 1975 giving authority to the State Historical Building Safety Board to write regulations, and have consultation, review and appellate functions for code and regulation issues relating to qualified historic buildings, structures and properties.
A major feature of the State Historical Building Code is that it is a state law, a statute within the Health and Safety Code and the creation of regulations is separated by Health and Safety Code, S. 18944.7 from the California Building Standards code adoption process.
The written regulations, the California Historical Building Code, are entitled "code" as well, but are in reality regulation adopted pursuant to Building Standards law. The California Historical Building Code is Part 8 of Title 24 of California's Code of Regulations. Another important feature of the SHBC is that it is not a "stand alone" code. It relies on a "regular adopted code" such as the latest adopted California Building Code to be the standard from which alternatives are derived. The 2010 California Historical Building Code is the most recent published regulation of the State Historical Building Code.
An often overlooked part of this legislated code is that the nature and extent of its reach and authority can extend into arenas where other statutes affect historic buildings or structures (Health and Safety Code S. 18956). While non-building regulations are not addressed in the 2010 California Historical Building Code, the State Historical Building Code (Health and Safety Code 18958 and 18959.5) gives authority for expansion or limitation of the reach and authority through adoption of regulations by the State Historical Building Safety Board. Other state agencies may adopt rules and regulations governing the rehabilitation, preservation, restoration, related reconstruction, safety, or relocation of qualified historical buildings, structures and properties within their jurisdictions (Health and Safety Code, S. 18954).
To facilitate standardization of application of the code, the State Historical Building Safety Board is given authority for appeals and review functions. The code is for the most part a set of performance criteria based on reference to regular code. The authority for determination of the performance of a particular alternative "as reasonably equivalent" to that of the regular code is the decision of the State Historical Building Safety Board through the consultation, review and appeal process.
