After way too many hours of work, I'm excited to share this huge fire and smoke damper cheatsheet that goes through EVERY instance where the 2018 IBC requires a fire and smoke damper due to a wall/floor/ceiling penetration.

Is there a similar cheat sheet for IEBC? In specific for 802.2.1.

This is great but there is one miss that I found - the case where a smoke damper is required for penetrations of smoke partitions - the code only requires dampers on transfer openings not on ducts.
