I attended a seminar today on the IRC and Two-Family dwellings under the 2009. It was specific to townhouses, duplexes, twins and other types of 2 family dwellings. It was a pretty good idea to throw this together for a specific subject like this one. I picked up on a few things that I had either forgotten or did not know. Amazing what you will find when you look deeper into the books.
So a question to everyone. Do any of your municipalities require stamped drawings for townhouses and two-family dwellings? None of the muni's that I work in do. I am only talking about the IRC governed units, not four stories.
Also, I am surprised that with all of the changes in this area for 2009 including referenced to the IBC such as 419, etc under the live/work unit that you don't have to have a commercial building cert even though you may have to go to the IBC for plan review. Not too happy about this.
