Step 2: Obtain Essential Building Data
In order to apply the building code properly, the design professional needs to know the basic characteristics of the proposed project. The only source available to the design professional that can provide this information is the owner's program. The information that should be collected includes total building area, number of stories, building area per story, building height in feet, type of sprinkler system, if any, proposed construction materials, climate zone (IECC), flood hazard area. The number of stories may be predetermined by the owner's program or it may be dictated by necessity. If the property area is less than the total building area, then multiple stories are necessary. The building code identifies certain types of buildings and occupancies that require a sprinkler system, which could be determined at this phase of design. These include residential occupancies, high‐hazard occupancies, institutional facilities, high‐rise buildings, and mall buildings.
