Marty, thank you very much for your videos. They really do help.

I'm a building inspector for Roy City, Utah. I live in Brigham City. I can't remember how I found out about you. I'm sure it was because I searched youtube for a building code related topic. I'm grateful I found you! Keep up the great work!

I really want to thank You for this. Your's and other Comments help me keep it up. I do learn every time. I am vary surprised how complicated it is to explain sometimes. If you think of anything you think needs to be covered please let me know. Also currious, 1. what do you do 2. where do you live 3. how did you find the videos?

Good explaining of this chart and others.  Thanks for taking the time to help explain some things in the IBC. Do you have any insight into IBC 3412.7 & 3412.9 charts about building scoring? If so I would love for you to make a video.  Thanks for taking the time.

Dear Sir, Steel building will fall under which category as per table 601. What fire rating is required for such building. I believe steel building fall under type-II B category hence No fire resistance rating is required for such building, Pl clarify

Type of construction table 601 and NFPA 220 both speak to the types of material you're allowed to use. Both of these tables and sections relate to other sections of the code that speaks to how big or how tall your allowed to build building. For instance code wise you're not allowed to build a building out of wood if it's over a certain amount of square footage. Likewise you not allowed to use would be the building of different heights in concealed spaces i.e. your on allowed to build your Interior partition walls of wood on a high-rise.  This table does not speak to those locations it only gives you the definition of the building types. Table 503 speaks to hide insights that directly relates to take 601.

I found In IBC Type III is " Exterior walls are of noncombustible materials and the interior building elements are of any material permitted by the code." I am not found " strick with structure it self ( load bearing wall)"!

When changing room usage, do you use NEW or EXISTNG of NFPA 101?

If A and B do not refer to sprinklers, then what do they mean? How do you determine if your Type of Construction is an A or B?

I HAVE A BUILDING THAT IS TYPE 2A AND I AM PLANNING ON BUILDING AN INTERIOR 400 SF STAGE WITH A 400SF VIP AREA ABOVE IT.....CAN THAT BE CONSTRUCTED OF WOOD? THANK YOU FOR YOUR OPION.

What is the construction type for warehouse with CMU exterior wall ( non load bearing)?

Type III construction, does the exterior sheathing have to be fire treated (fire retardant)?

Steel building will fall under which category as table 601. what fire rating is required for such building. i believe steel building fall under type-11 B category hence for fire resistance rating is required for such building, pl clarify
