I have been searching requirements for the fire separation in between the house and attached garage for a log home. Obviously there is a ton of information on this topic for conventional framed houses, but none specific to log homes. Does anyone know the requirements for a log home to garage fire break? Thanks in advance.

You need ICC 400-2012 and ICC 400-2017 if you’re going to inspect log houses. Also, check here:
while i understand were you may be coming from
i am in the arena for “inspector protection” the same irc standards for an attached garage should apply regardless of wall materials
& understand i’m extremely open for an opportunity to be educated
ymmv & local code enforcement may differ
my reporting will remain unchanged
The second document in my post is in agreement.
