Do we consider windows and doors as "openings" in any special cases?
Do we consider windows and doors as "openings" in any special cases?
(OP)
Hi All,
When evaluating the total openings in a building wall to check if the building is partially enclosed, do we consider windows and doors as "openings"? Code says that they are not to be treated as openings but are there any special circumstances when we do consider them as openings?
(Setting aside non-impact resistant doors)
I'd greatly appreciate help on this topic.
