This plan was drawn to:
- Georgia State Minimum Standard One & Two Family Dwelling Code (2024 IRC + GA amendments, eff. 1/1/2026), R322 flood

Georgia enforces statewide minimum standard codes for one- and two-family dwellings, based on the IRC with Georgia amendments. Local jurisdictions may add requirements.
Before you build. Halden plans are design documents. Depending on where you build, your jurisdiction may require structural design, energy compliance, a site plan, or a seal from a design professional or engineer licensed in your state. A local professional should review and adapt the set to your lot, soils and adopted code. We don't guarantee compliance with local zoning, covenants or setbacks.
