| | 1. PLANS REFER TO FBC 2010; GOVERNING CODE CHANGED TO |
| | FBC 5TH EDITION (2014) EFFECTIVE JUNE 31, 2015. REVISE |
| | AS APPLICABLE. THE CODE SECTION REFERENCED ON THE PLAN |
| | (FBC 1029.4.1) IS FROM THE BUILDING CODE; IS THIS MULTI |
| | FAMILY AND GOVERENED BY THE FLORIDA BUILDING CODE, |
| | BUILDING RATHER THAN THE FLORIDA BUILDING CODE, |
| | RESIDENTIAL? CLARIFY. |
| | |
| | 2. FBC 107, PROVIDE MORE INFORMATION REGARDING THE |
| | EXISTING EGRESS OPENINGS. PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW A 50" HIGH |
| | SINGLE HUNG WINDOW CAN HAVE A CLEAR OPENING OF 24". |
| | |
| | 50" HIGH WINDOW / 2 (TOP PANE, BOTTOM PANE) = 25". 25" |
| | - 24" (ARCHITECT STATES THIS IS THE CLEAR OPENING) = |
| | 1". PROVIDE A DETAIL OF THE EXISTING WINDOW TO SHOW HOW |
| | THE FRAME (TOP, BOTTOM) AND MEETING RAIL CAN EQUAL ONE |
| | INCH. FBC 5TH EDITION EXISTING BUILDING CODE 704.1 |
| | ALLOWS A 5% REDUCTION IN CLEAR OPENING OF THE |
| | REPLACEMENT WINDOW. AS THE PLAN PROPOSES TO ELIMINATE A |
| | DOOR IN THIS BEDROOM, THEY CURRENTLY HAVE A COMPLIANT |
| | EMERGENCY MEANS OF ESCAPE AND RESCUE. THEREFORE THE NEW |
| | OPENING IS TO COMPLY WITH CURRENT CODE REQUIREMENTS. |
| | EXISTING WINDOWS DO NOT APPEAR TO COMPLY ALTHOUGH |
| | ARCHITECT HAS SIGNED AND SEALED A PLAN STATING THAT A |
| | 50" WINDOW COMPLIES. COMPLIANCE FOR THIS LIFE SAFETY |
| | ITEM IS NOT CLEAR. |
