Introduction
The University of Michigan is a State of Michigan constitutional corporation, governed by a Board of
Regents elected by the People of the State of Michigan and has a great deal of regulatory autonomy
(refer to Michigan Legislature Article VIII section 5). It is exempt from local building and zoning
ordinances and subject to State of Michigan laws and regulations that are clearly intended to apply to
universities. In lieu of local building ordinances and State of Michigan laws and regulations that do
not apply at the University, the University chooses to require that new construction adhere to a
number of well-established building codes and standards, as listed in this Section.
Regardless of origin or enforcing agency, all of the applicable building codes and standards listed and
codes and standards referenced within the codes listed below are to be followed. Note, for instance,
that compliance with the State of Michigan Bureau of Fire Safety rules for schools and/or dormitories
does not eliminate the need to also comply with the Michigan Building Code, and that compliance
with the 2010 Americans with Disabilities Act does not eliminate the need to comply with the barrier
free provisions of the Michigan Building Code. Additional codes may apply for particular situations,
such as for Medical Center construction; these are to be considered on the case-to-case basis. Many
times adherence to narrow scope codes and/or standards is required by the general codes listed below.
New editions of building codes are published from time to time. For each project, the edition of
building codes cited in this section form which the University of Michigan is listed as the “Enforcing
Agency” is to be as follows:
The edition of building codes is to be as listed in this section as of the beginning of the
design development phase of a project unless construction documents are submitted to the
University for final review more than a year after adoption of the new version of the code.
If more than one year has transpired between adoption of the new code and submission of
construction documents to the University for final review, the edition of the building codes
listed in this section as of submission of construction documents applies.
The University employs building inspectors, who are the authority having jurisdiction on all
University property. Refer to each code diction for authority having jurisdiction contact information.

All areas used by inpatients, and all areas within state jurisdiction, are to be designed to comply with
HFES regulations. In general, all areas used by outpatients that fall outside HFES jurisdiction are to
be designed to comply with HFES regulations. Any areas of noncompliance should be reviewed and
approved by the Michigan Medicine (MM) Design Manager.
HFES is the AHJ over all Inpatient Health Care Occupancies (defined as “Health Care Facilities” by
NFPA and “I-2” by MBC. Further they are the AHJ over some “Ambulatory Health Care”
Occupancies, including Outpatient Surgery and Outpatient Dialysis. The occupancy classification of
“Ambulatory Health Care” needs to be carefully reviewed with the MM Design Manager. Not all
AHC occupancies are subject state and federal regulatory authorities.
For assistance in determining which projects are subject to HFES plan review and inspection, MM
has developed a series of spreadsheets available on the MM FPD website at MBFS HFES Pan
Review Guideline. This has been reviewed by HFES, however it is not intended to replace
professional judgment. Jurisdiction should be verified with HFES directly when it is not clear. Affirm
decisions with the MM Design Manager.

Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories (BMBL)
An advisory document recommending best practices for the safe conduct of work in biomedical and
clinical laboratories from a biosafety perspective. It is used for building design standards, grant, and
contract requirements for laboratories that handle infectious microorganisms and hazardous biological
materials or animals. Each biosafety laboratory must, at a minimum, meet the requirements for
laboratory facilities as stated in the BMBL.

Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)
As defined at http://www.cms.
gov/. Compliance with NFPA 101, Life Safety Code, currently
enforced version (2012 as of July 5, 2016) is required.
CMS is a federal agency that administers Medicare, works with states on Medicaid. It surveys and
certifies Health Care facilities and labs for reimbursement, including Outpatient Surgery and
Outpatient Dialysis. CMS also issues Survey and Certification memos and clarifications, including
“Categorical Waivers” that the facility may choose to adopt. CMS requires facilities built before 2016
to comply with “Existing Health Care” and “Existing Ambulatory Health Care” chapters of NFPA
101. Facilities built after 2016 and all renovations are to comply with “New Health Care” and “New
Ambulatory Health Care.”
The Joint Commission Requirements for Accreditation of Health Care Facilities
As defined at http://www.jointcommission.org/
. The Joint Commission (TJC) is the largest and most
recognized accreditation organization that the state and CMS recognize for licensure and
reimbursement. TJC surveys to the codes adopted by CMS and has established requirements based on
CMS standards. MM Accreditation staff may participate in design reviews of MM clinical projects to
ensure compliance with TJC and CMS requirements.
State of Michigan, MIOSHA--Radiation Safety Section / United States Nuclear Regulatory
Commission All projects which include ionizing radiation-producing equipment or devices used for
clinical or research use. All electronic equipment producing ionizing radiation must be registered
with the MIOSHA through EHS/Radiation Safety Service prior to initial use. Irradiators or other
similar devices using or producing radioactive materials for clinical or research use will require
licensing by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission in advance. Approvals for registration or
licensing may also require submitting shielding construction plans for prior approval by MIOSHA--
Radiation Safety Section or the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission depending on the type of
equipment used and nature of the facility. Contact UM EHS / Radiation Safety Service for
