| | SECTION 13-415.1.ABC.1.4 WILL APPLY FOR ANY OUTSIDE |
| | LIGHTING. |
| | PLEASE SEE SECTIONS OF CODES NOTED ABOVE WITH RESPECT |
| | TO INTERIOR LIGHTING. THE PLANS CAME BACK WITH A |
| | LIGHTING CONTROL PANEL/TIME CLOCK AND THE RESPONSE |
| | MENTIONS MANUAL CONTROLS ARE SHOWN BY SWITCHES IN |
| | SEPARATE SPACES. THE SEPARATE SPACE CONTROLS ARE |
| | REQUIRED TO OVER RIDE ANY TIME OF DAY SCHEDULING AND |
| | ARE ALSO LIMITED IN THE TIME OF THE OVER RIDES. |
| | STANDARD SWITCHES SHOWN ON PLANS DO NOT COMPLY WITH THE |
| | FLORIDA BUILDING CODE FOR ENERGY CODE COMPLIANCE. AS |
| | SHOWN ON PLANS, IF AN OCCUPANT TURNS A LIGHT SWITCH ON |
| | IN ANY ROOM IN *OUT OF BUSINESS HOURS* THE LIGHTING |
| | WOULD REMAIN ON INDEFINITELY. AUTOMATED CONTROLS FOR |
| | *ALL* LIGHTING WITHIN THIS BUILDING IS REQUIRED |

| | DECORATIVE ETC OF ANY KIND WHICH WILL BE FED ON THIS |
| | PROPERTY SHALL HAVE LIGHTING CONTROLS. |

| | ENERGY EFFICIENCIES. PLEASE SEE 13-415.2, |
| | 13-415.2.ABC.1.1, .1.2, .1.3. |
| | THE RESPONSE MENTIONS TO SEE LIGHTING CALCULATIONS |
| | SHOWN ON PLANS. THE REVIEW OF THESE CALCULATIONS SHOWS |
| | THE MINIMUM DESIGN EXCEEDING THE ALLOWANCES BY THE |
| | CODE. THERE ARE SEVERAL ITEMS WHICH WILL BE NOTED |
| | BELOW. |
| | **AS NOTED ON PREVIOUS REVIEW** |
| | |
| | A) MAY NOT USE RETAIL AS THE OCCUPANCY AS STATED IN |
| | FLORIDA BUILDING CODE AND NFPA-101 STATES THIS IS |
| | BUSINESS OCCUPANCY. THEREFORE THE ALLOWANCES SHOWN IN |
| | TABLES MUST ONLY USE OFFICE. |
| | THIS APPLIES TO MOST AREAS ON PLANS WHICH SHOWS *SALES |
| | AREAS* AS THE ALLOWED USE. ONE EXAMPLE OF AN AREA WHICH |
| | CAN NOT BE *SALES AREA* IS THE *CHANGING ROOM*. THIS IS |
| | ONLY ONE EXAMPLES AS MOST OF THE AREAS NOTED AS SALES |
| | AREAS ARE JUST NOT SALES AREAS. THE CLOSET AS SHOWN IS |
| | NOT CONSIDERED *ACTIVE STORAGE* BASED ON USE SHOWN ON |
| | PLANS. |
| | THE CODE IS CLEAR FOR USE AND OCCUPANCIES. PLEASE KNOW |
| | AS INFORMATIONAL USE, MAY NOT USE 3.9 WATTS PER SQ FT |
| | AS FIGURED IN TABLE. THIS OCCUPANCY AND USE IS NOT |
| | INCLUDED. |
| | THESE ARE ONLY A COUPLE OF EXAMPLES. |
| | |
| | B) THE ALLOWANCES SHOWN ON PLANS FOR DECORATIVE |
| | LIGHTING ALSO EXCEED TABLES AND EXCEPTIONS TO TABLES. |
| | THE ALLOWANCE FOR DECORATIVE LIGHTING ABOVE THE GENERAL |
| | LIGHTING IS ONLY 1W PER SQ/FT. THE WATTAGE SHOWN |
| | EXCEEDS THIS LEVEL SUBSTANTIALLY. |
| | |
| | C) PLEASE SEE THE ALLOWANCES FOR DECORATIVE LIGHTS ETC |
| | MAY ONLY BE USE WHEN ACTUALLY INSTALLING THESE TYPES OF |
| | LIGHTS. CALCULATIONS SUBMITTED SHOW AN ALLOWANCE BEING |
| | ASSUMED WHEN NO DECORATIVE LIGHTING IS BEING |
| | INSTALLED. |
| | |
| | D) PLEASE SUBMIT ENERGY CALCULATIONS. AS NOTED IN |
| | MECHANICAL REVIEW NONE WERE LOCATED IN PLANS ETC |
