Home Fire Code Walls

The use of 5/8 inch drywall and a different screw pattern for added fire resistance is definitely a smart move, especially in multifamily buildings where shared walls can pose a higher risk in case of a fire. The city has implemented these codes to ensure the safety of residents. Adding extra protection in the garage with the same screw pattern and 5/8 inch drywall is also a good decision. Overall, prioritizing fire resistance in building construction is crucial for the safety and well-being of occupants.
