| | EXISTING BUILDING CODE |
| | FBC*CITY OF WEST PALM BEACH |
| | AMENDMENTS TO THE FBC2004 |
| | |
| | 1.)COMPLETE A LOCAL PRODUCT APPROVAL |
| | APPLICATION, SEE ATTACHED. |
| | |
| | 2.)THE ENGINEERING DOES NOT PROVIDE A |
| | DESIGN PRESSURE LIMITATION FOR THE BUTT |
| | GLASS WINDOW, ONLY THE REQUIREMENT FOR |
| | THE OPENING. |
| | |
| | 3.)TWO SETS OF ENGINEERING SUBMTITTED. |
| | I BELIEVE THAT ONLY ONE IS REQUIRED; FOR |
| | THE 95 HIGH WINDOW.THE PROVISO THAT |
| | THERE WERE TWO BUTT GLASS OPENINGS TO BE |
| | PERMITTED WAS AN ERROR AS ONE HAS |
| | ALREADY BEEN ADDRESSED. THEREFORE, THIS |
| | REVIEW DOES NOT ADDRESS THE 84INCH HIGH |
| | OPENING. |
| | |
| | 4.)SILICONE STRESS IS STATED, APPEARS |
| | TO BE A DESIGN REQUIREMENT.PROVIDE |
| | INFORMATION TO SHOW THAT THE GE1200 IS |
| | COMPLIANT, EITHER IN SPEC SHEETS OR |
| | STATEMENT ON THE PLAN. |
| | |
| | 5.)CALCULATIONS REQUIRED. |
| | |
| | 6.)HOW WILL QUALITY ASSURANCE BE |
| | ADDRESSED?AS THIS IS USUALLY ASSEMBLED |
| | IN THE FIELD, GENERALLY THE ENGINEER |
| | PROVIDES A LETTER STATING THAT HE WILL |
| | DO THE INSPECTION, AND AN INSPECTION |
| | LETTER PROVIDED AFTER THAT INSPECTION |
| | HAS BEEN DONE. |
| | |
| | 7.)THE NOA IS NOT HELPFUL IN |
| | DETERMINING DESIGN PRESSURES FOR THE |
| | WINDOW.NO INFORMATION WAS IN THE |
| | PRODUCT APPROVAL RELATED TO THE GLASS, |
| | ONLY MULLIONS AND ANCHORS.USING THE |
| | CHART FOR MULLIONS, 96" (MULL) SPAN, AT |
| | -38PSF THE PRODUCT IS LIMITED TO 65IN, |
| | THIS IS A 69.5 IN TRIBUTARY WIDTH.THE |
| | GLASS SPECIFIED IN THE PRODUCT APPROVAL |
| | IS FOR 1/4" TEMPERED GLASS, THE |
| | ENGINEERING SPECIFIES 3/8" TEMPERED |
| | GLASS. |
| | |
| | 8.)THE ENGINEERING STATES THAT THIS IS |
| | BASED ON 4 SIDED SUPPORT.IT APPEARS |
| | THAT TWO PANELS ARE SUPPORTED ON THREE |
| | SIDES, ONE IS SUPPORTED ON TWO SIDES. |
