New York State's current Uniform Code is the 2025 edition, which became fully effective on December 31, 2025. The New York State Department of State states that the 2025 Uniform Code incorporates the 2025 Building Code of New York State and related code books.

The 2025 Building Code of New York State includes Chapter 16 Structural Design, Chapter 17 Special Inspections and Tests, Chapter 18 Soils and Foundations, and Chapter 19 Concrete. Chapter 16 relies on recognized structural standards including ASCE 7 for minimum design loads.

The 2025 NYS Building Code includes New York-specific amendments, including provisions concerning minimum ground snow loads and risk-category importance factors.

The New York State Uniform Code applies throughout New York State except New York City, which is permitted to use its own building code. Projects located in New York City therefore require review against the applicable NYC Building Code and local requirements rather than assuming that the statewide code alone governs.

Local jurisdictions may also have requirements affecting permitting, zoning, site conditions, inspections, and other project matters. Structural drafting should therefore be based on the current approved design and the requirements identified by the responsible design professional and authority having jurisdiction.
