Commercial buildings in Florida must comply with the Florida Building Code, which is based on the International Building Code (IBC) with Florida amendments. Key requirements include: occupancy classification (which determines the required fire protection, egress, and structural requirements), accessibility (ADA compliance), energy code compliance (Florida Energy Code), and fire protection (sprinklers, fire alarms, and fire-rated construction). Pineland Engineering designs commercial buildings to comply with all applicable codes and manages the plan review process with the local building department.
