I'm looking at the alteration of a former factory space. We'll be putting new factory/manufacturing type equipment and processes into about 200,000 SF of space and eventually expanding that into 400,000 SF. This is all high-bay steel framed construction with corrugated metal siding. Very similar to a pre-fab metal building with Z-girts and steel frames. The existing building walls are not insulated and the exterior skin is far from weather proof. Seems like I've heard that some Industrial uses are exempt from the CEC but I don't see anything in the code that backs that up. Anyone know of factory/industrial exemptions for CEC or am I going to have to insulate and re-skin this entire building?
