Is Romex allowed in a Type IIIB Building

[Elviz]

I'm putting out a budget bid on a Multifamily Residential project in Broward County; the drawings are preliminary Architectural only, they are classified as R2 Residential apartment in Type IIIB buildings that are 4-stories. Is the use of Romex allowed in the construction of these units?
