Do you mean to say if I inspect a house in City of Houston which adapted IRC, 1 3/8" thick, solid or honeycomb steel doors of the same thickness, or a 20 minute fire-rated door is required. However if house is located in another jurisdiction that has not adapted IRC and doesn't have any requirement for the garage/dwelling seperation, the same door is not a repair item to write up.
Thanks for these great posts. You guys are so helpful.
