We have been requested by a general contractor to look into and possibly 
furnish signage required by NY state code that indicates the building 
construction type. They are wood construction townhomes which will contain some 
sort of truss-construction and OSB.
I'm pretty sure if I have the correct requirements found here 
https://www.dos.ny.gov/dcea/pdf/Part1264.pdf but wanted to see if anyone on 
here had run into this whether in NY or elsewhere. What were those requirements?
My understanding is the signs serve as a warning for fire departments of the 
dangers of the construction-type when in a fire situation.
Are the signs required on dwelling units and townhomes? And is it really just a 
letter or two that designates the construction type?
Thank you in advance for your input.
