Standards & Guidelines
The USC Basis of Design (BOD) is the master reference document for all USC projects. This document is intended to be used by architectural, engineering and construction teams involved in proposed USC construction projects. Outlined in the BOD are USC standards and preferences for typical/common USC design and construction topics. Standards and preferences for quality and performance levels, administrative procedures, systems processes, systems, manufacturers, products and installation are included.
Additional sections have been provided below as referenced by the BOD and supplemental to the BOD. These sections should be reviewed as well to ensure the USC standards are being adhered to for all projects.
