Zoo Buildings

[dschomer]

Would a Zoo building, such as a 2000 sq. ft. stand alone building (ca 1915) housing a reptile exhibit, be considered an agricultural building, or are there other NFPA or IBC documents more specific to this occupancy?

Re: Zoo Buildings

This is an interesting question. When I think of "agriculture", I think of farming and not a zoo. However, some of the same conditions will be present. I am going to think about this one for awhile.

Okay, I have thought about it. Yes, the conditions that will likely be present are like that described in 547.1(B)
