| | ACTION: DENIED |
| | |
| | FBC 2004 CODE FAMILY W/ 2007 SUPPLEMENTS |
| | FBC CH.1 AS AMENDED BY THE CITY OF WEST PALM BEACH |
| | |
| | THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS ARE NUMBERED TO CORRESPOND WITH |
| | PREVIOUS REVIEW COMMENTS AS WELL AS DESIGNER'S WRITTEN |
| | RESPONSES FOR THE PURPOSE OF CONTINUITY. |
| | |
| | 1. OK EXCEPT: |
| | PG M-1.1: IT APPEARS THAT SEVERAL SG-2 LINEAR DIFFUSERS |
| | ARE INCORRECTLY LABELED 20 INCHES BY 1 INCH WHEN THEY |
| | SHOULD BE LABELED FOR 20 FEET BY 1 INCH. ALSO, THE |
| | RETURN GRILL FOR RTU 1C DOES NOT HAVE A SIZE OR CFM |
| | DESIGNATION. |
| | |
| | 2. PG M-1.1 AND M-1.2: AIR BALANCES STILL DO NOT |
| | REFLECT THE INTRODUCTION OF OUTDOOR AIR. EXAMPLE: RTU |
| | 1A AND RTU 1B ON EQUIPMENT SCHEDULE EACH SHOW 6400 CFM |
| | OF SUPPLY. THE FLOOR PLAN ON PG M-1.1 SHOWS EACH UNIT |
| | RETURNING 6400 CFM FROM THE SPACE. IF THESE UNITS ARE |
| | RETURNING 100% OF THE AIR BEING SUPPLIED, HOW WILL THEY |
| | BE ABLE TO INTRODUCE THE 1300 CFM OF OUTDOOR AIR THAT |
| | EACH UNIT CALLS FOR ON THE EQUIPMENT SCHEDULE? A |
| | SIMILAR CONFIGURATION AND PROBLEM OCCURS FOR RTU 2A AND |
| | RTU 2B. IF THE INTENTION IS FOR THE RETURN AIR FLOW TO |
| | BE REDUCED AS THE OUTSIDE AIR DAMPER MODULATES, WOULD |
| | THERE NOT BE A NEED FOR A CORRESPONDING MODULATING |
| | DAMPER IN THE RETURN DUCTS? ADDITIONALLY, IT IS UNCLEAR |
| | HOW THE GRAVITY RELIEF VENTILATORS WILL SERVE TO |
| | RELIEVE POSITIVE PRESSURE IN THE SPACES BEING SERVED IF |
| | THEY ARE TIED INTO THE RETURN AIR DUCT SYSTEM. THIS |
| | WOULD PUT THE GRAVITY RELIEF UNDER CONSTANT NEGATIVE |
| | PRESSURE. PLEASE CLARIFY. |
| | |
| | 3. A-6.1: ELEVATION DRAWINGS STILL DO NOT SHOW A |
| | PERMANENT MEANS OF ACCESS WHICH STARTS AT GRADE LEVEL |
| | AS REQUIRED BY FBCM 306.5. PLEASE SHOW COMPLIANCE AND |
| | RESUBMIT. |
| | |
| | 4. DEFERRED TO BUILDING PLAN REVIEW. PLEASE COORDINATE |
| | WITH ARCHITECT SHOULD BUILDING PLAN REVIEW INDICATE THE |
| | NEED FOR RATED ASSEMBLIES IN ANY AREAS. |
| | |
| | 5. PG M-2.1: PLEASE SEE COMMENT #2 ABOVE REGARDING AIR |
| | BALANCE AND GRAVITY VENTILATOR DESIGN FOR RTU 3A. |
| | AHU-14: FLOOR PLAN SHOWS 640 CFM OF SUPPLY WHILE |
| | SCHEDULE ON PG M-6.0 SHOWS 450 CFM OF SUPPLY. ALSO, |
| | SUPPLY AND RETURN ARE BOTH SHOWN AT 640 CFM, HOW WILL |
| | OUTSIDE AIR BE INTRODUCED? |
| | AHU-13: DH-2, WHICH IS ATTACHED TO THIS AHU, DOES NOT |
| | APPEAR IN THE EQUIPMENT SCHEDULE ON PG M-6.0. PLEASE |
| | CLARIFY. SEE COMMENT ABOVE REGARDING OA INTRODUCTION. |
| | PLEASE CHECK ALL AIR HANDLING SYSTEMS FOR SIMILAR |
| | CIRCUMSTANCES ON M-2.1, M-2.2, M-3.1 AND M-3.2. |
| | PG M-2.2: EXHAUST GRILLS FOR EF-3 ARE MISSING |
| | DESIGNATIONS, SIZES AND CFM. PLEASE CORRECT. |
| | PG M-3.2: THERE ARE DUCTS COMING DOWN FROM ROOF IN ROOM |
| | 322 WHICH APPEAR TO BE FROM OAU-1. THIS UNIT IS SHOWN |
| | ON PG M-11.0 AS A 100% OUTSIDE AIR UNIT. IT IS UNCLEAR |
| | AS TO WHY A 100% OUTSIDE AIR UNIT HAS A RETURN DUCT |
| | SYSTEM SINCE IT IS PROVIDING 100% OUTSIDE AIR. PLEASE |
| | CLARIFY THE DESIGN INTENT. FBC 106.1.1. |
| | |
| | 6. PLEASE SEE COMMENT #2 REGARDING DESIGN OF GRAVITY |
| | RELIEF DAMPERS. |
| | |
| | 7. OK |
| | |
| | 8. OK, EXCEPT PG M-2.3: KITCHEN GREASE EXHAUST DUCT, |
| | VERTICAL DUCTS UNDER EF-14 AND EF-15 ARE SHOWN ON PLAN |
| | TO BE 16X16. EACH OF THESE FANS IS SHOWN ON EQUIPMENT |
| | SCHEDULE TO BE RATED AT 1912 CFM. THIS MEANS THE AIR |
| | VELOCITY IN THE 16X16 DUCT WOULD BE APPROXIMATELY 1074 |
| | FEET PER MINUTE. GREASE DUCT SYSTEMS SERVING A TYPE I |
| | HOOD SHALL BE DESIGNED AND INSTALLED SO AS TO PROVIDE |
| | AN AIR VELOCITY WITHIN THE DUCT SYSTEM OF NOT LESS THAN |
| | 1,500 FEET PER MINUTE AND NOT GREATER THAN 2,500 FEET |
| | PER MINUTE IN ACCORDANCE WITH FBCM 506.3.4. THE 16X16 |
| | DUCT MAY FALL UNDER THE EXCEPTION IN THIS SECTION IF IT |
| | IS FOR THE PURPOSE OF TRANSITIONING TO THE SIZE OF THE |
| | FANS AND IT IS LESS THAN 3 FEET IN LENGTH BUT THAT CAN |
| | NOT BE DETERMINED FROM THESE DRAWINGS. |
| | |
| | 9. OK |
| | |
| | 10. OK |
| | |
| | 11. M-6.0: PLEASE INCLUDE THIS NOTE ON THE OARTU |
| | SCHEDULE. |
