IFC or IBC code for Jails

They are remodeling the court house witch is attached to the jail. they want to take away an emergency exit and turn it into a secure area. so what was a push bar exit door and make it a locked door with a time delay I am thinking the code stated that there is a 30 or 45 second delay they can have on this door. However i am having trouble finding the code for it.
 
If it is a holding area and not a required exit for the rest of the building, they might be able to lock it down or do some card reader stuff
