Barndominium Builders Across Texas
Every page here is researched individually: who issues the permit, whether that authority enforces the residential code at all, the design criteria it has adopted, and what the land actually allows. In Texas those are set jurisdiction by jurisdiction, so two places twenty miles apart can carry very different engineering. We treat them that way.

All 89 locations, by county
Grouped by county rather than alphabetically, because in Texas the line between a city and the county around it decides almost everything. Inside the city you are under its adopted code and its own filled-in Table R301.2. Outside it, a Texas county has no general building-code power at all unless it has opted in by commissioners court resolution — and even then there is no county permit, no county fee and no county inspector. Two parcels twenty miles apart can sit in completely different worlds.
