I'm running into hangups with code section R302.3.1 which seemingly requires not only the floor separating the units to be fire rated but all the walls below supporting that floor to be fire rated (ie all exterior walls and load bearing interior walls on the first floor), which may mean extremely expensive fire rated windows at the lower unit.
