Default Insulating floor joists?

Does the fact that he has HW floors make a difference in foam insulation,
i.e. is it a fire code violation since there is no fire-resistant covering
over the foam? Or does that apply just to walls?


The fire resistive barrier must be on the occupied side of the foam so
it is acceptable to have rigid foam insulation in the crawl space.
