5. AC17-Glass Glazed Unit Skylights and Sloped Glass Glazing. Following a period of public comment, revisions are proposed to update the criteria to the 2006 International Codes, to add provisions for PVC glazing retainers and frames, and to include specifications for weather-sealing materials. click here
6. AC16-Plastic Glazed Skylights. Following a period of public comment, revisions are proposed to revise conditions of acceptance for some testing, to include specifications for water-sealing materials, to limit use of skylights with plastic frames, and to update the criteria to the 2006 International Codes. click here
7. AC86-Cold-formed Steel Framing Members-Interior Nonload-bearing Wall Assemblies. Extensive revisions are proposed, based upon discussions at a meeting involving an industry task group and ICC-ES staff. click here

9. AC193-Mechanical Anchors in Concrete Elements. Numerous issues have been raised by ICC-ES staff and industry that may require revisions to the criteria. click here
10. AC308-Post-installed Adhesive Anchors in Concrete Elements. Numerous issues have been raised by ICC-ES staff and industry. Several revisions are proposed to the criteria's Annex A. click here

12. AC15-Concrete Floor, Roof and Wall Systems and Concrete Masonry Wall Systems. Revisions are proposed to limit the application of this criteria for wall systems to certain seismic design categories and seismic zones. The criteria is also updated and editorially revised. click here
13. AC375-Field-constructed Fireplace Systems Using Prefabricated Blocks. A proposed new acceptance criteria applies to fireplace systems (fireplace unit and chimney) that are assembled in the field using prefabricated blocks of either refractory masonry or reinforced precast lightweight concrete masonry. click here
14. AC275-Glass Fiber Lath Used in Cementitious Exterior Wall Coatings, Exterior Cement Plaster (Stucco) or Precast Stone Veneers. Revisions are proposed to update the criteria to the 2006 International Codes and, in line with a request from a report applicant, to add use of glass fiber lath in exterior stucco supporting precast stone veneer. click here
