I have a single car garage with a sectional overhead door, I have space on one stucco wall for a 24 x 75 pedestrian door. will that size be acceptable since it is not the main egress door?
The 16' garage wall closest to the house will have 11' across the driveway plus an additional 5' behind the house. The peak roof on the garage runs in the same direction as the peak roof on the house, so that the eaves of the house and the eaves of the garage will be about 4' apart.
I am curious others takes on this circumstance. Individual wants to build a free standing garage which is accessory to the main dwelling. A part of the garage is a game room. In this game room there will be an emergency escape window. However to egress this game room you would have to travel...
Are pex/ pvc water and waste lines allowed to run (exposed) through a garage? I know the code requires ducts to be min. 26 gage metal, and other penetrations between garage and house to be protected.
Now retired and just want to build a garage, so this is a NYS Residential Code question. Where does the code - IRC close enough - tell me a slab on grade garage floor in unheated building doesn't have to be protected from frost? Lots of unheated post frame/pole barn buildings with an independent slab I them that I'm sure is subject to frost heave.
The code section is listed as Dwelling/Garage separation but the chart says all habitable rooms. What we have is a home owner with a large detached garage that has a large habitable second floor.
