If an existing building is retrofit with an area/density system to protect high piled storage, does it need to have smoke vents and draft curtains added as described in the IFC, or is that just new construction?
I looked around in the IFC/IBC/IEBC books, but I could not find anything that would exempt the vents and curtains. Does anyone recall any way to avoid them (other than ESFR)?
