Per IEBC 804.1, if we have alt 2 renovation for a non-sprinklered B occupancy, w/ a work area that is about 10% of the overall floor footprint, are we required to upgrade the fire rating of all the walls along corridor to 1hr, if the corridor serves 30 or more occupants?
Or just the corridor wall that's adjacent to the work area?
If we have to upgrade the fire rating of all the corridor walls, it just seems overkill and unusually onerous. I feel like I'm missing something.
