The Building Codes Division, working with the Residential Structures Board, recently adopted amendments to section R613.2 of the 2008 ORSC, concerning window sill height and fall prevention requirements. These changes are based, in part, on changes made to the 2009 IRC by the International Codes Council, and were prompted by reports issued by the U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission concerning injuries and fatalities associated with falls from windows.
