What changed in the 2026 edition

Your code book can be out of date without looking it

Written for people who already hold a license and need the deltas, not a course. Corrections are logged in public, with the date and what was wrong.

14 rows free, with their sources

The 2023 to 2026 crosswalk, 50 numbers. Every row tells you where that rule sits now, what took over the number you left behind, how sure we are, and the document it was read in with the date. The count for the part of the book you work in is free too.

$29 once for the other 36, if you want them. One payment, no subscription, no account, and no email address on file with us.

The date this whole site is about

Everything on this site is the difference between the book you have been using and the one that governs from that date. Not a course, not a summary. The deltas, with the section numbers, and a public log of the ones we got wrong first.

The three things worth ten minutes

Written for people who already know the trade

This site is not exam prep and it is not a licensing guide. It assumes you are licensed and working, and that what you need is what moved since the last edition.

Every claim points at a section number so you can check it in about a minute. Nothing here asks to be taken on authority.

What this deliberately is not

It is not a searchable code database and it will not become one. Section numbers are cited. The code text you read in your own copy.

That is a deliberate line, not a limitation we are apologizing for.

When it applies in Texas

Texas adopts the 2026 edition effective September 1, 2026 (16 TAC 73.100).

That is an adoption date, not a switch. Work permitted under the previous edition is generally judged by the previous edition, and local amendments govern locally where they exist.
