A protocol and software program are provided to create tagged representations of model building construction codes that have a tagging schema that reflects the logic and requirements of the codes from the text of the codes. The protocol and software can also be used to create “smart” versions of Federal, state, and locally adopted versions of the those codes, as well as reference standards and any other rules or regulations. The SMARTcodes™ and embedded schema and tags are usable by model checking software (MCS) as a limiting set of constraints when the MCS reads a building information model (BIM) that contains information about a building to check the building against the SMARTcodes™ and automatically assess code compliance for the building. In addition, the SMARTcodes™ may accessed manually by users through web-based interfaces to provide output that is useful for a variety of purposes.
