Usual English word for a building code replacing an older one? 3

[asiga]

Hi!

I'm not able to find what's the most common word in English to describe the act of an older building code being annulled by a newer code. In Spanish we say that the older code has become "derogado". Searching Wordreference, it suggests "repeal", "abrogate" or "abolish" as translations to "derogar", but I feel like they are not proper translations in this context... I feel like "obrogation" is the proper word, at least according to the definition by Wikipedia ("modification or repeal of a law in whole or in part by issuing a new law")... but in the other hand, I wasn't able to find real uses of "obrogation" in the structural/building field...

What's the usual word you say in the US, UK or other countries to refer to older codes that are no longer in force?

Thanks a lot!

Superseded is the best word. Replaced or supplanted are other possibilities.
