Construction documents · Oklahoma
Oklahoma’s state minimum codes set the reference floor, while the project still needs a confirmed local submission route. Identify effective adopted rules rather than using technical-committee materials as the permit standard.
Your codes, connected to your drawings
We read the state and local codes and amendments that governments publish online, the way a human reviewer does. Our AI opens it in a web browser, goes to the section or table, and cites it in the finding with a link to the source. The model codes most states adopt, such as the International Building Code, are licensed; we use their text only where a license allows it, and you can upload a copy you’re licensed to use. We reference the section. We never copy or distribute code text.
We detect the codes your drawings cite in the code analysis, cover sheet, and general notes. Add or remove codes, and note the edition, local amendments, and project requirements.
Mark the drawings you want reviewed as Check this file. If you upload a code, such as a standard you’re licensed to use or an unpublished amendment, set it to Code and Use as reference.
Follow the linked drawing and code section, check applicability, and have the responsible professional verify the issue.

Oklahoma reference guide
The Oklahoma Uniform Building Code Commission’s FAQ explains that its adopted codes and standards are minimum construction standards for residential and commercial work. Verify the current adopted rule for each relevant discipline.
Oklahoma OUBCC: FAQsOUBCC publishes code-and-rule resources alongside technical-review activities. Its current homepage includes both adopted-code links and committee work; a proposal or review announcement does not establish a new effective requirement.

Prepare a useful review
Use this preparation list for Groundbook alongside the official permit checklist. Name the codes that apply.
List the effective OUBCC reference and amendments for each discipline. Label committee proposals or future changes separately.
Supply the responsible jurisdiction’s checklist and any valid local requirements or written project conditions. Confirm state-program involvement where applicable.
Bring the full drawing issue, schedules, specifications, energy documents, and site reports. Ask reviewers to compare the same governing references across consultant packages.
Identify which files are being checked, which are references, and which revisions are superseded. Include reviewer comments and responses where they explain an unresolved decision.
Use the drawing-register templateFrom documents to decisions
Compare stated design information with the adopted code and local amendments. Verify scope, exceptions, and the source behind each potential issue.
Review code referencesLook for incomplete information and conflicting requirements before submission. Assign each verified finding to the responsible designer.
Prepare for submissionCheck relationships across drawings, schedules, specifications, and reports. Resolve the source conflict and carry the decision into the issued set.
Review the whole packageBefore you start
Confirm its status first. The commission publishes technical-review work and adopted rules separately. Use the effective adopted requirements for a permit-oriented review and label proposals as future-change studies.
Supply the current drawing set and schedules, relevant specifications and reports, and the reviewing authority’s checklist. Identify the edition, project scope, and permit stage. We read the state and local amendments that governments publish online. The base model codes, such as the International Building Code, are licensed; we use their text only where a license allows it. You can upload a code you’re licensed to use, or an amendment that isn’t online.
No. Groundbook surfaces potential conflicts and omissions with links to source documents for professional verification. It does not issue permits, certify compliance, provide permit-expediting services, or replace the authority having jurisdiction.
Projects in more than one state
For another project's location, start with its own authority and reference list. Requirements and adopted editions can differ across state lines.
