The building official is authorized to specify by rule classes of exposed metal structures for which the report must be filed with the building official. For such structures, the report must be submitted to the building official, along with a filing fee as provided in Section 14A-12-1206.1.

An order issued pursuant to this section does not waive any applicable requirement to obtain a permit for such work.
