Thanks for the videos on construction types, they are very helpful! Would you please do an updated version of these based on 2021 IBC, it seems there's some change, especially on type IV.

Hello😀
Our expertise is in the Florida Building Code which is based in the international building code, neither of these codes have a minimum evacuation time, the building code and NFPA codes generally focus on establishing guidelines and standards for fire safety, emergency response, and evacuation procedures, but they do not typically set a specific minimum time for evacuation.
The time it takes to evacuate a building or area during a fire or other emergency can vary widely based on factors such as the size of the building, the number of occupants, the available exits, the nature of the emergency, and the effectiveness of the evacuation plan and procedures in place.
There is a minimum fire resistance rating of the structural elements for the building based on the type of construction, so in case of a fire, the building can stand in place while the occupants safely exit the buildings. You can see the hourly requirement in our type of construction videos.
Hope this helps!
