I am working on 2-bay, commercial truck wash buildings, both are similar in scope. One is for semi-tractors, with trailers, and the other is the larger box trucks (like Fed-Ex or UPS)
This is a 2-bay automatic semi-truck wash. Building is under 12,000 sqft. Per IBC 304, a vehicle car wash is considered as a B occupancy. With this being a semi-truck, commercial vehicle, wash, does this fall under the S-1 occupancy type?
And if so, within IBC section 9, Fire Protection Systems, 903.2.9, would this building fall under a commercial motor vehicle requirements? This is not a repair or storage and does not have hazardous, flammable liquids or other combustible materials, that you normally would find under storage or repair of these types of vehicles. Because if this does fall under the commercial vehicle, anything over 5000 sqft, needs to be sprinklered, per commercial vehicle.
