The TRCC seems to be much like the NAHB standards.

I am not familair with the Means publication but have just ordered it (thanks for the tip).

I have found success in working with builders to get corrections based on teh NAHB standards simply because, as Brandon suggests, the builders helped develop them and even the small time builders I come across recognize their own association standards (and those who don't sure don't want to try to make the case in court that they can't meet standards created by builders, themselves).

I will likely use the Means info as a starting point, falling back to the NAHB standards to get action when needed.

Good discussion!!
