Commercial Kitchen Engineering in Alabama

Commercial Kitchen Engineering across Alabama

Engineering practice in Alabama is regulated by the Alabama Board of Licensure for Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors. Professional engineers must be licensed by the board, and firms offering engineering services must hold a certificate of authorization. Stamping drawings for permit requires an Alabama-licensed PE.

Alabama enforces the Alabama Energy Conservation Code for commercial construction, which is based on the International Energy Conservation Code and ASCE/ASHRAE/IES Standard 90.1. Local jurisdictions adopt and enforce it through their own building departments.

Plan review and building permits are handled by city and county building departments, each enforcing the codes it has adopted. Larger cities such as Birmingham, Huntsville, and Mobile run full electronic plan-review programs, while smaller jurisdictions may review on paper with longer cycles.
