The sheer gall of the authors calling their American building/zoning codes international will never cease to inflame me.

Its very common for American companies to push their standards worldwide regardless of suitability for local conditions (eg local countries using the metric system for a start). I don't think it's from superiority, just out of ignorance. Many Americans are woefully uneducated about the world outside of America. (clearly doesn't apply so much to the 'very online', such as our American posters here.)
