Does framing in basement reno require fire blocking?
Do anyone know if fire block is required when we are framing our basement in Ontario? Is this required by the code?
I found this is required at other places. Install fire blocking material whenever there is a gap between top plate and rim joist, or any other concealed places.
So basically will framing inspector fail us if we don't install fire block?
Thanks a lot!
