BOCA Building Officials and Code Administrators International... 

The International Code Council (ICC) was formed by the consolidation of three formerly separate fire code organizations International Conference of Building Officials (ICBO), which had published the Uniform Fire Code under its fire service arm, the International Fire Code Institute (IFCI) Building Officials and Code Administrators (BOCA), which had published the National Fire Prevention Code and Southern Building Congress Code International (SBCCI), which had published the Standard Fire Prevention Code. When the three groups merged in 2000, in part to develop a common fire code, the individual codes became obsolete however, they are noted above since references to them may periodically surface. The consolidated code is IFC-2006, International Fire Code.
