How to use the Matrix Adoption Tables to determine applicability
If you need to know whether CRSC product rules apply, first confirm the product category under **§ 12‑11A.202** / **§ 12‑11B.202** (detectable warnings or directional surfaces), then open the Matrix Adoption Table for the relevant model code, find the row for the chapter/section, and read the agency column — an “X” shows that agency adopted that section; always verify by reading the agency’s adopted regulatory text and Chapter 1 authority.
Last reviewed: July 6, 2026
What the code requires — plain English (controlling §)
The Matrix Adoption Tables are a non‑regulatory aid that show which state agencies adopted or amended specific model‑code sections. To determine whether the California Referenced Standards Code (CRSC) product rules apply, start with the CRSC scope statements: § 12-11A.202 and § 12-11B.202 make clear that the listed requirements and test methods apply to detectable warning products and directional surfaces.
Read this first: use the matrix as a map — find the CRSC section, find the agency column, and treat an “X” in that agency’s column as the table’s indication that the agency has adopted (or adopted-as‑amended) that section.
Requirements in detail
Quick decision steps (what to check)
- Identify whether the item is a detectable warning product or a directional surface (these are the CRSC product categories in § 12-11A.202 / § 12-11B.202).
- Confirm the installation date cutoff or other limiting date in the CRSC text (for these CRSC sections, note the explicit date reference January 1, 2001 where present).
- Locate the relevant Matrix Adoption Table in the model code volume (the Matrix appears in each model‑code part as an appendix or chapter front matter).
- In the matrix row for the chapter/section that references the CRSC provision, read the agency column. An “X” under an adopting agency shows that the agency has adopted that chapter/section (entire or only listed sections — see the table legend).
Decision‑relevant dimensions (table)
| Decision dimension | Possible values you will look for | How it affects applicability | Code reference |
|---|---|---|---|
| Product category | Detectable warning product / Directional surface | If the product fits either category, § 12-11A.202 / § 12-11B.202 is the starting CRSC scope. | § 12-11A.202, § 12-11B.202 |
| Installation date | After 1/1/2001 (or earlier) | CRSC calls out evaluation timing for products installed after January 1, 2001; check the specific CRSC subsection for the date limit. | § 12-11A.202, § 12-11B.202 |
| Agency of jurisdiction | e.g., DSA, HCD, SFM, OSHPD, etc. | The matrix shows which agency adopted a given section; the adopting agency is often the authority for approvals/enforcement. See Chapter 1 for agency authority. | See Chapter 1, Division I, Sections 1.2.0–1.14.0. |
| Matrix indicator | “X” in agency column; legends like “Adopt entire chapter” or “Adopt only listed sections” | An “X” in the agency column means that agency adopted the chapter/section (interpret according to the matrix legend). The legend rows explain meanings. | Matrix legend and examples in model‑code volumes. |
| Special reprints | T‑19 or T‑24 markings (State Fire Marshal columns) | A T‑19 or T‑24 mark indicates CCR Title‑19 or Title‑24 text reprints — scope/appeals may remain in the CCR; read the matrix footnote. | Example: Fire Code matrix notes (T‑19 / T‑24 columns). |
How to read the matrix legend (short guide)
- The top rows describe scope such as Adopt entire chapter, Adopt entire chapter as amended, or Adopt only those sections that are listed below. If an “X” appears in a top‑row cell, it applies to the whole chapter as described.
- If the agency column has an “X” in the “Adopt only those sections listed below” row, then look down the matrix for the specific section rows that also show an “X.”
- The matrix is explicitly described as a non‑regulatory, user aid — it does not itself change code legal language; always read the underlying code section and the agency’s adopted text.
Exceptions & special cases
- The Matrix Adoption Tables are an aid — they are non‑regulatory; they do not replace the text of the CRSC, CCRs, or any agency regulations. Always verify the actual adopted text with the listed agency.
- When a column shows T‑19 or T‑24 (commonly in the Fire Code matrices), that indicates material reprinted from the California Code of Regulations (Title 19 or Title 24) for convenience — the CCR scope and appeals remain governed by the CCR. Do not assume a reprint changes administrative procedures.
- Some agencies adopt an entire chapter but then list state‑amended sections; in that case the matrix shows adoption in the top row and the amended sections are listed beneath. Read both the chapter adoption row and the individual section rows.
Common mistakes
- Treating the matrix as law. The matrix is an index/legend — it helps locate who adopted what, but it is not the regulatory text. Always read the actual adopted section or CCR.
- Failing to check Chapter 1 agency authority. The matrix indicates who adopted sections but Chapter 1 (Division I) defines each agency’s statutory authority and building applications — omission causes mis‑assignment of jurisdiction.
- Ignoring T‑19 / T‑24 footnotes. When a matrix uses Title‑19 or Title‑24 reprint markers, users assume the text in the model code is the controlling administrative code; in fact the CCR may control scope/appeals.
- Misreading the legend rows (top rows vs. section rows). The top rows describe chapter‑level adoption (whole chapter or chapter as amended); the section rows show which particular sections were adopted if the agency only adopted listed sections.
Worked example — step‑by‑step (concrete scenario)
Scenario: You manufacture a detectable‑warning tile to be installed in a state‑regulated public school. You need to know whether the CRSC product approval rules apply and which agency enforces them.
Product classification — verify the product is a detectable warning product. The CRSC scope label for detectable warnings is at § 12-11A.202 / § 12-11B.202. That confirms you are in the right CRSC category.
Confirm installation timing — the CRSC language references products installed after January 1, 2001 for independent‑entity evaluation; check the specific subsection in CRSC for your product type.
Open the Matrix Adoption Table in the relevant model code volume (for building access features that relate to accessibility you’d typically consult the California Building Code matrix or the model code part that contains the accessibility chapter). The matrix shows agency columns such as DSA (Division of the State Architect) and HCD (Department of Housing and Community Development).
Find the row for the chapter/section that references the CRSC provision (for example, the chapter on accessibility). Look at the DSA column in that row:
- If you see an “X” in DSA’s column on the section row, that indicates DSA adopted that section (or the chapter), so DSA is the adopting agency for that section in that application. Interpret per the matrix legend rows.
Outcome: If the matrix shows an “X” for DSA on the accessibility section that references detectable warnings, then the school installation is within DSA jurisdiction for that adopted CRSC requirement; you must follow the product evaluation/approval route the CRSC and the adopting agency require (including independent‑entity evaluation if the CRSC text requires it). Confirm the agency’s adopted text and approval procedures (agency rules and Chapter 1 authority).

CALIFORNIA MATRIX ADOPTION TABLES
Format of the Matrix Adoption Tables The matrix adoption tables, examples of which follow, are non-regulatory aids intended to show the user which state agencies have adopted and/or amended given sections of model code. An agency’s statutory authority for certain occupancies or building applications determines which chapter or section may be adopted, repealed, amended or added. See Chapter 1, Division I, Sections 1.2.0 through 1.14.0, for agency authority, building application and enforcement responsibilities.
The side headings identify the scope of the state agencies’ adoption as follows:
Adopt the entire UMC chapter without state amendments.
If there is an “X” under a particular state agency’s acronym in this row, it means that particular state agency has adopted the entire model code chapter without any state amendments.

California Matrix Adoption Tables
Format of the California Matrix Adoption Tables
The matrix adoption tables, examples of which follow, are nonregulatory aids intended to show the user which state agencies have adopted and/or amended given sections of the model code. An agency's statutory authority for certain occupancies or building applications determines which chapter or section may be adopted, repealed, amended or added. See Chapter 1, Division I, Sections 1.2 through 1.14 for agency authority, building applications and enforcement responsibilities.
The side headings identify the scope of state agencies’ adoption as follows:
Adopt the entire IFC chapter without state amendments.
If there is an “X” under a particular state agency’s acronym on this row, this means that particular state agency has adopted the entire model code chapter without any state amendments.
Example:

PREFACE
This document is Part 12 of thirteen parts of the official triennial compilation and publication of the adoptions, amendments and repeal of administrative regulations to California Code of Regulations, Title 24, also referred to as the California Building Standards Code. This part is known as the California Referenced Standards Code.
The California Building Standards Code is published in its entirety every three years by order of the California legislature, with supplements published in intervening years. The California legislature delegated authority to various state agencies, boards, commissions and departments to create building regulations to implement the State’s statutes. These building regulations, or standards, have the same force of law, and take effect 180 days after their publication unless otherwise stipulated. The Califor- nia Building Standards Code applies to occupancies in the State of California as annotated.
A city, county, or city and county may establish more restrictive building standards reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological or topographical conditions. Findings of the local condition(s) and the adopted local building standard(s) must generally be filed with the California Building Standards Commission (or other filing if indicated) to become effective, and may not be effective sooner than the effective date of this edition of the California Building Standards Code . Local building standards that were adopted and applicable to previous editions of the California Building Standards Code do not apply to this edition without appropriate adoption and the required filing.
The referenced standards contained in Part 12 are developed by the state agencies listed herein. The Part 12 Cross Reference Table herein identifies the state agency to which the standard applies, the subject of the standard and the provisions in other parts of Title 24 where the application of the standard is required.
Should you find publication (e.g., typographical) errors or inconsistencies in this code or wish to offer comments toward improving its format, please address your comments to:

CRSC § 10.3 Medium relevance — show source text
Mixing of continuous sheathing methods CS-WSP, CS-G and CS-PF along a braced wall line shall be permitted. Intermittent methods ABW, PFH and PFG shall be permitted to be used along a braced wall line with continuous sheathed methods, provided that the length of required bracing for that braced wall line is determined in accordance with Table R602.10.3(1) or R602.10.3(3) using the highest value of the bracing methods used.
In Seismic Design Categories A and B, and for detached one- and two-family dwellings in Seismic Design Category C, mixing of intermittent bracing methods along the interior portion of a braced wall line with continuous sheathing methods CS-WSP, CS-G and CS-PF along the exterior portion of the same braced wall line shall be permitted. The length of required bracing shall be the highest value of all intermittent bracing methods used in accordance with Table R602.10.3(1) or R602.10.3(3) as adjusted by Tables R602.10.3(2) and R602.10.3(4), respectively. The requirements of Section R602.10.7 shall apply to each end of the continuously sheathed portion of the braced wall line. R602.10.4.2 Continuous sheathing methods. Continuous sheathing methods require structural panel sheathing to be used on all sheathable surfaces on one side of a braced wall line including areas above and below openings and gable end walls and shall meet the requirements of Section R602.10.7. R602.10.4.3 Braced wall panel interior finish material. Braced wall panels shall have gypsum wall board installed on the side of the wall opposite the bracing material. Gypsum wall board shall be not less than [1] / 2 inch (12.7 mm) in thickness and be fastened with nails or screws in accordance with Table R602.3(1) for exterior sheathing or Table R702.3.5 for interior gypsum wall board. Spacing of fasteners at panel edges for gypsum wall board opposite Method LIB bracing shall not exceed 8 inches (203 mm). Interior finish material shall not be glued in Seismic Design Categories D 0, D 1 and D 2 . Exceptions:
Interior finish material is not required opposite wall panels that are braced in accordance with Methods GB, BVWSP, ABW, PFH, PFG and CS-PF, unless otherwise required by Section R302.6.
An approved interior finish material with an in-plane shear resistance equivalent to gypsum board shall be permitted to be substituted, unless otherwise required by Section R302.6.
Except for Method LIB, gypsum wall board is permitted to be omitted provided that the required length of bracing in Tables R602.10.3(1) and R602.10.3(3) is multiplied by the appropriate adjustment factor in Tables R602.10.3(2) and R602.10.3(4), respectively, unless otherwise required by Section R302.6. R602.10.4.4 Panel joints. Vertical joints of panel sheathing shall occur over and be fastened to common studs. Horizontal joints of panel sheathing in braced wall panels shall occur over and be fastened to common blocking of a thickness of 1 [1] / 2 inches (38 mm) or greater.

Frequently asked questions
When the matrix shows an “X” for an agency, does that mean the material is legally binding?
No — the matrix is a non‑regulatory aid that shows which agency adopted or amended a section. The legally binding text is the adopted regulatory text or CCR; always read the agency’s adopted section itself.
If a Matrix row is blank for my agency, does that mean the agency has no authority?
Not necessarily. A blank means that agency did not adopt that chapter/section in the matrix. You must consult Chapter 1 (agency authority) and the agency’s own regulations to determine jurisdiction.
What does a T‑19 or T‑24 mark in the matrix mean?
Those marks indicate a reprint of CCR Title‑19 or Title‑24 material in the model code volume for convenience. The CCR remains the controlling administrative text for scope and appeals.
Who performs the independent evaluation required by the CRSC for detectable warning products?
The CRSC requires evaluation by an independent entity (a not‑for‑profit, product‑safety testing and certification organization) as described in the CRSC sections on product approval. Check § 12-11A.205 / § 12-11B.205 for details.
If two agencies show an “X” for the same section, which agency controls?
Multiple adoptions can occur when agencies adopt the same model section for different building applications or occupancies. Determine the authority by referencing Chapter 1 agency authority rules and the specific application (e.g., school, hospital, state building).
