Hello Everyone,
I am trying to learn about codes and need info about basic differences between 2 family and three family codes. IRC code book is only for single and 2 family homes but not about three family. If I have to figure out code for 3 family ( 3 floor), what should I keep in mind as far as fire protection is concerned. Are these code going to be same for existing and new homes. If existing homes are to be converted from 2 family to 3 family, what needs to be updated or changed to bring it to the code?
Please advice.
Thx,
