The International Building Code (IBC) has provided a dedicated section for Metal Composite Material (MCM) panels since its original publication in 2000. (Section 1406) This new section requires that metal laminate panels used higher than 40 feet above grade must meet the same performance requirements and successfully be tested to NFPA 285, the same as required for MCM panels.
