| | DATE: WED. JAN. 25/ 2017 |
| | ACTION: DENIED |
| | |
| | 1) FLOOR PLAN INDICATES AN OCCUPANT LOAD OF 450 |
| | OCCUPANTS. THE STRUCTURE IS 223.75 FT. X 49.5 FT.= |
| | 11075 SQ. FT/ 15 SQ. FT. /OCCUPANT = 739 OCCUPANTS. SEE |
| | 2014 FBC-B TABLE 1004.1.2. THE SEATING PLAN INDICATES A |
| | TOTAL OF 380 SEATS. PLEASE CONFIRM THE PEOPLE THAT |
| | WOULD BE SEATED AT THE TABLES WOULD BE THE SAME PEOPLE |
| | ON THE DANCE FLOOR, THAT THE EVENT HAS LIMITED SEATING |
| | AND THE REMAINDER OF THE OCCUPANT LOAD OF 450 WOULD BE |
| | STAFF FOR THE EVENT. THE LIMITING FACTOR IS NOT TO HAVE |
| | AN OCCUPANT CONTENT NOT GREATER THAN |
| | 500 PERSONS. |
| | THE FIRST LIMITING FACTOR IS WHEN THE OCCUPANT LOAD IS |
| | OVER 500 OCCUPANTS IN AN ASSEMBLY OCCUPANCY AND THE |
| | STRUCTURES SQUARE FOOTAGE EXCEEDS 5,000 SQUARE FEET |
| | THEN IT IS CONSIDERED A THRESHOLD BUILDING |
| | NEEDING TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF F. S. 553.71(7). |
| | |
| | 2) THE SECOND LIMITING FACTOR HAS TO DO WITH THE |
| | IMPORTANCE FACTOR OF THE BUILDING AS PART OF THE WIND |

| | AND BUILDING RISK CATEGORY II. |
| | |
| | THE RISK CATEGORY IS FIGURED LOW. SEE THE 2014 FBC-B |
| | TABLE 1604.5 RISK CATEGORY III STRUCTURES INCLUDES |
| | ASSEMBLY OCCUPANCIES WITH OCCUPANT LOADS OF 300 OR |
| | MORE. THE IMPORTANCE FACTOR FOR A RISK CATEGORY II |
| | STRUCTURE IS 1.0 WHEREAS THE IMPORTANCE FACTOR FOR A |
| | RISK CATEGORY III STRUCTURE IS A 1.15. THE LIMITING |
| | FACTOR APPEARS TO BE THE PURLINS IN A EXPOSURE C @ 59 |
| | MPH (VASD). WITH THE IMPORTANCE FACTOR OF 1.15 IN AN |
| | EXPOSURE C THE PURLIN LIMITATION WOULD BE APPROXIMATELY |
| | 51.30 MPH VASD. |
| | |
| | THE EVENT MAY NOT PROCEED IF THE WIND SPEED IS FORECAST |
| | TO EXCEED 50 MPH (VASD) AND THE FABRIC SHALL BE REMOVED |
| | FROM THE STRUCTURE BEFORE 50 MPH (VASD) WIND SPEED IS |
| | EXPERIENCED. STATE ON PLANS. |
