What is the address? I wonder if they really kept any of the existing floor elements...seems like a big alt, hard to see how it would be economical to retain this stuff.

As long as you meet the 110% rule (don't add more than 110% of floor area, which kicks the whole building into the current code), the existing building's joists can remain wood. I am finishing a project now with this fact pattern: existing frame building with wood joists, new steel extension.

I am here! (For now, anyway). I just had this conversation today. Typically we see non-combustible *horizontal* extensions on frame buildings, as it's quite impractical to build a non-combustible vertical extension. (Your building is brick, Stephen, for the purpose of this exercise).
