1.3 Scope

This manual is intended to be used as a reference for the modeling methods of compliance software and a guide to software programs seeking certification as Title 24 compliance software for nonresidential and multifamily buildings.

The ACM Reference Manual can be modified during a code cycle without a formal rulemaking. Therefore, the goal of the software development team is to provide periodic updates to improve the accuracy and usability of compliance software.
