I. All buildings, building components, and structures constructed in New Hampshire shall comply with the state building code and state fire code.

The state building code in effect at the time that the application for the building permit required by RSA 155-A:4 is received by the governing authority shall remain in effect for the duration of the work covered by that permit. This requirement notwithstanding, for a period of 6 months after the effective date of the code adopted under RSA 155-A:1, IV, a concurrency period is established, allowing building permits, and other required documents, at the election of the applicant, to show compliance using either the code in effect just prior the effective date of the code adopted under RSA 155-A:1, IV, or the code adopted under RSA 155-A:1, IV, but not a combination of the 2 codes.
