I think that once a building code is adopted it must be made available at no charge. You bring up a good point.  The NEC is incorporated into many state's and the International Code.  Why can they charge for all access?   Chris

Friends:

I find the PDF version best for my uses.  A portable, searchable, bookmark-able and cut and paste-able resource is essential for my work flow.

I don’t think the NFPA is considering the needs of the field engineer when eliminating the PDF version. Maybe there are some members of this forum that have the ear of the NFPA and can put in a word to restore the portable version.

As an aside, I find it troubling that one has to pay to read any law of the land.  If a society makes rules, they should be freely available for all to review, free of charge.  That is just my altruistic bias.
