does anyone know the national building code for window heights with windows that may or may not have tempered glass next to exterior doors? and if so how far must they be from exterior doors. he has built an addition and inspection did not pass due to window not being above floor at least three feet.

  1. Here is a link that describes some of the IBC requirements for safety glass:  http://www.a-home.net/improvements/windo...  However, local code can be more restrictive than the National code, so if the local inspector failed the inspection, the builder will be required to bring it up to local code before it will be allowed to pass.
