What construction permits do I need to submit?

There are 5 different Subcode Technical Sections (commonly called "permits"), that may need to be completed. They include Building, Electrical, Plumbing, Fire Protection, and Mechanical. Additionally, a Construction Permit Application Jacket also needs to be completed (F-100). Which forms are required depend on the type of work you’re doing.
