Building Standards, Permits and TIP

Houston Airport System Building Standards and permitting is an “in-house” code review and inspection program created specifically to provide code plan review and inspection support for construction taking place on any Houston Airports premises.

How do I begin?

The Tenant Improvement Program (TIP) Process is the first step in beginning construction on airport property.
