Hello - We are doing a construction document set for a group of buildings. One of the structures is just a prefab metal building with no enclosed interior space. It is just a roof with a wall at each end. Do we need to create a Life Safety plan for that structure?

Thanks
 
Can't answer without know the occupation, use of the building, square feet, height, how close are the buildings are to each other, what codes are used. We always ask for a egress plan, but is up to your local code department.

Jill.namoff, ...Welcome to The Building Code Forum ! :)

What is the applicable Building Code \ Fire Code or NFPA
Code & Edition for this proposed structure ?

FWIW, ...please refer to Section 403 & 404 in the 18 IFC.
