Numerous significant changes are included in the 2021 IBC, such as: ISBN 978-1609839550 International Building Code Escape rooms, also known as puzzle rooms, are now categorized as special entertainment venues and subject to special exit requirements and Section 411 compliance. Each section of a building that is separated by one or more firewalls is now treated as a separate building when determining the permitted number of monitoring areas. In accordance with ICC A117.1, all classrooms in Group E facilities with a volume of up to 20,000 square feet must have improved classroom acoustics. Requirements for Type I, II, III, and IV exterior wall composite metal materials and systems (MCM) have been simplified, and sprinklers have been eliminated IBC
Provisions designed to supplement the existing IBC requirements now specifically address the use of intermodal shipping containers as structures.
