This video goes over Chapter 1 of the Uniform Plumbing Code. It discusses such things as permits, the Authority Having Jurisdiction and their duties, which code has priority, and other items. Please watch and if you have any questions, feel free to ask. I will answer as soon as possible.

I just wanted to say how much I appreciate this video. I have a learning disability, and I am working on my journeyman test. I wish I could see every chapter like this. Thank you so much for your work.

I did every chapter like this. Subscribe to the channel and each one is there. Where are you located? If you have the patience for these videos, you definitely have the patience to take and pass the exam.

Thank you so much for these videos!! I was an electrician by trade for over 20 years, and I just recently took a position as a electrical inspector for a local municipality, and I am in cross training to become a full building inspector and plans examiner. Our jurisdiction has adopted the UPC and I cannot tell you how much your videos are helping me, not just to understand the code, but to become a better inspector. This is a gold mine.

Yours is now my favorite plumbing channel on KZfaq. I’ve been having so much trouble with code as a first year, and it seems like it comes naturally to all the apprentices around me. I really appreciate you explaining this step by step because my first year teacher doesn’t do anything like that.

Do you know what code nyc adheres to?

@BGsPlumbingClass 3 жыл бұрын

Most of the Eastern States adhere to the International Plumbing Code. NY is one of those. There are more similarities than there are differences. As far as I've seen over the years, if you adhere to the UPC, you will not be violating the IPC but some of the allowances in the IPC are not allowed by UPC standards (the UPC seems to be a bit more strict).

The Zoom courses I do are for the course I teach in my district. All this stuff here culminated out of a necessity for my class to continue during covid online. I have been teaching plumbing for over 20 years. I'll figure out a live way for you all eventually- hopefully soon.

would be a lot simpler to follow if you read thrm in order and people would have a lot better understanding an not be so confused orget so thrown off in process of watching this video.

@BGsPlumbingClass 2 жыл бұрын

Glad you're watching! Code is not the easiest thing to understand. Each of these videos were originally done due to the restrictions of in class lectures due to the pandemic. When it had started, I'd already completed Chapter 1 in class. That is the reason this one lecture came in after the others. Once I have time, I could order these as a series- I'm sure there's a way. I hope that is what you meant by your comment. If not, then I will say that I do have a tendency to jump around a bit on occasion. That is how I've taught for over 22 years now. It is always to prove a point or to expand on the topic at hand. I always go back though.
