| | ACTION: DENIED |
| | |
| | 1) PLEASE REVIEW THE 2010 FL EXIST BUILDING CODE, |

| | COUNTY PROPERTY APPRAISERS OFFICE LIST THE STRUCTURE AT |
| | $316,527.00 AND THE STRUCTURE WAS C.O. IN 1995. THIS |
| | WOULD HAVE PUT IT UNDER THE 1991 SBCCI CODE. |
| | |
| | 2010 FL EXISTING BUILDING CODE 611.8.1 ROOF-TO-WALL |
| | CONNECTIONS FOR SITE-BUILT SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL |
| | STRUCTURES. |
| | WHERE REQUIRED BY SECTION 611.8, THE INTERSECTION OF |
| | ROOF FRAMING WITH THE WALL BELOW SHALL PROVIDE |
| | SUFFICIENT RESISTANCE TO MEET THE UPLIFT LOADS |
| | SPECIFIED IN TABLE 611.8.1 EITHER BECAUSE OF EXISTING |
| | CONDITIONS OR THROUGH RETROFIT MEASURES. AS AN |
| | ALTERNATIVE TO AN ENGINEERED DESIGN, THE PRESCRIPTIVE |
| | RETROFIT SOLUTIONS PROVIDED IN SECTIONS 611.8.1.1 |
| | THROUGH 611.8.1.7 SHALL BE ACCEPTED AS MEETING THE |
| | MANDATED ROOF-TO-WALL RETROFIT REQUIREMENTS. |
| | |
| | A) ROOF TO WALL CONNECTIONS SHALL BE IMPROVED AS |
| | REQUIRED BY SECTION 611.8.1 |
| | |
| | (B) MANDATED RETROFITS OF THE ROOF-TO-WALL CONNECTION |
| | SHALL NOT BE REQUIRED BEYOND A 15 PERCENT INCREASE IN |
| | THE COST OF RE-ROOFING. |
| | |
| | EXCEPTION: SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURES |
| | PERMITTED SUBJECT TO THE FLORIDA BUILDING CODE ARE NOT |
| | REQUIRED TO COMPLY WITH THIS SECTION. |
| | |
| | 611.8.1 ROOF-TO-WALL CONNECTIONS FOR SITE-BUILT |
| | SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURES. |
| | WHERE REQUIRED BY SECTION 611.8, THE INTERSECTION OF |
| | ROOF FRAMING WITH THE WALL BELOW SHALL PROVIDE |
| | SUFFICIENT RESISTANCE TO MEET THE UPLIFT LOADS |
| | SPECIFIED IN TABLE 611.8.1 EITHER BECAUSE OF EXISTING |
| | CONDITIONS OR THROUGH RETROFIT MEASURES. AS AN |
| | ALTERNATIVE TO AN ENGINEERED DESIGN, THE PRESCRIPTIVE |
| | RETROFIT SOLUTIONS PROVIDED IN SECTIONS 611.8.1.1 |
| | THROUGH 611.8.1.7 SHALL BE ACCEPTED AS MEETING THE |
| | MANDATED ROOF-TO-WALL RETROFIT REQUIREMENTS. |
| | |
| | EXCEPTIONS: |
| | |
| | 1. WHERE IT CAN BE DEMONSTRATED (BY CODE ADOPTION DATE |
| | DOCUMENTATION AND PERMIT ISSUANCE DATE) THAT |
| | ROOF-TO-WALL CONNECTIONS AND/OR ROOF-TO-FOUNDATION |
| | CONTINUOUS LOAD PATH REQUIREMENTS WERE REQUIRED AT THE |
| | TIME OF ORIGINAL CONSTRUCTION. |
| | |
| | 2. ROOF-TO-WALL CONNECTIONS SHALL NOT BE REQUIRED |
| | UNLESS EVALUATION AND INSTALLATION OF CONNECTIONS AT |
| | GABLE ENDS OR ALL CORNERS CAN BE COMPLETED FOR 15 |
| | PERCENT OF THE COST OF ROOF REPLACEMENT. |
| | |
| | 2) DEPENDING ON THE RESULTS OF THE FINDINGS ABOVE, AND |
| | IF ADDITIONAL STRAPPING WILL BE REQUIRED, A |
| | RESIDENTIAL, BUILDING OR GENERAL CONTRACTOR WILL NEED |
| | TO OBTAIN A PERMIT FOR THE RETROFIT WORK. FOR A ROOFING |
| | CONTRACTOR THEY WOULD BE WORKING BEYOND THEIR SCOPE OF |
| | LICENSE. |
