Beginning in the 2009 IRC the section defining the conditions of the garage to house walls and habitable space above garages now fall under a new section entitled "R302 Fire-resistance construction"
My question is this:
Are code officials interpreting this like other fire barriers, walls, ceilings etc. to where certain thing like electrical panels must now be rated enclosures if they are installed facing into the garage?
Where does everyone think this is going to go in the future in terms of an actual fire barrier or not?
