Thank you! FYI: In my column (Know the Code) in Fine Homebuilding Magazine two issues ago I also covered fireblocking in depth and there’s some additional information in the article not in this video. Have a great Friday!
Awesome!! Thanks for letting me know. I’ll check it out. Wasn’t so familiar with this topic and coming up on an inspection. So your video really helped 👍🏾
Thank you! I've been ignoring youtube lately, but I will get some new stuff posted soon. You can find lots of short videos I've been doing on TikTok (user name: BuildingCodeCollege.com)
How is the 1000 sq ft of floor cavity measured? I’m finishing a basement. Whole finished space is about 893 sq ft. Wondering if I need to put draft stops in my ceiling/floor joist cavities at all.
First, remember this only applies to open web floor trusses or a dropped ceiling. If the floor joists are wood or I-joists this doesn’t apply. Otherwise, if the floor area is less than 1000, nothing is needed.

Excellent job explaining the differences. Once you understand the differences, then what to do makes so much more sense. Thank you!
This is a fantastic and entertaining explanation! I hope we get to see many more pages for your code book collection
