Promulgation, distribution and enforcement of code of minimum building standards by commission generally.

For the further protection of the people of Alabama, the Building Commission is authorized and directed hereby to promulgate and to enforce a code of minimum building standards. The code adopted by the Building Commission under the provisions of this section, after having been recorded in the office of Secretary of State for 60 days, shall become effective.

The Building Commission shall have the code printed suitably immediately subsequent to its filing and shall distribute promptly the printed copies thereof in the same manner as acts of the legislature are distributed; provided, however, that no charge may be collected by the Building Commission for copies of the code and that any person shall be furnished a copy upon request.
