| | 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. THE REFERENCE STANDARD HAS BEEN CORRECTED. HOWEVER, |
| | SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION FOR USE OF THE IAQ PROCEDURE |
| | WAS NOT PROVIDED AS REQUESTED IN PREVIOUS REVIEW |
| | COMMENT #1. PROVIDE SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION IN |
| | ACCORDANCE WITH ASHRAE 62.1-2004 SECTION 6.3.2 AND FBCB |
| | 106.1.2. |
| | |
| | 2. THE 40X16 SUPPLY DUCT FROM AHU 1-2 IS PENETRATING A |
| | FIRE RESISTANCE RATED WALL AT THE ELEVATOR EQUIPMENT |
| | ROOM #155 WITH NO PROTECTION. SHOW HOW THIS DUCT |
| | PENETRATION IS TO BE PROTECTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH FBCM |
| | 607.5. |
| | |
| | 3 AND 4: OK |
| | |
| | 5. SMOKE DAMPERS HAVE BEEN SHOWN IN REQUIRED LOCATIONS |
| | IN THE CORRIDOR. HOWEVER, THE DAMPER ACTUATION METHOD |
| | INDICATED IN KEY NOTE #1 DOES NOT MEET THE REQUIREMENTS |
| | OF FBCM 607.5.4.1. GIVEN THE HVAC DESIGN AND |
| | CONFIGURATION OF THE BUILDING, IT APPEARS THAT UNDER |
| | FBCM 607.5.4.1, OPTIONS 1, 4 OR 5 WOULD BE APPLICABLE. |
| | THE USE OF ONE DUCT SMOKE DETECTOR AT THE AHU DOES NOT |
| | MEET ANY OF THE OPTIONS LISTED UNDER THIS SECTION |
| | BECAUSE IT IS NOT WITHIN 5 FEET OF THE DAMPERS AND IT |
| | DOES NOT QUALIFY AS TOTAL-COVERAGE SMOKE DETECTION. |
| | ADDITIONALLY, THE 10X10 AIR TRANSFER OPENING FSD SHALL |
| | BE ACTUATED BY OPTION 3 OR 4. THE OTHER FIRE/SMOKE |
| | DAMPERS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH THE CORRIDOR SHALL BE |
| | ACTUATED BY METHOD 1 OR 3 AS APPROPRIATE FOR THE |
| | APPLICATION. EXAMPLE: |
| | THE FIRE/SMOKE DAMPERS IN THE WALL WEST OF |
| | |
| | 6. OK EXCEPT, PLEASE VERIFY THAT ONE 30X12 TRANSFER AIR |
| | OPENING IS SUFFICIENT TO RETURN ALMOST 4000 CFM FROM |
| | THE MAIN LOBBY, RECEPTION AND FORMAL CONFERENCE AREAS |
| | IN ACCORDANCE WITH FBCM 601.4 AND FBCB 106.1.2. |
| | |
| | 7 THROUGH 10: OK |
| | |
| | 11. SMOKE DAMPERS ARE SHOWN ON PLANS AS REQUIRED. |
| | PLEASE SEE COMMENT #5 REGARDING DAMPER ACTUATION |
| | REQUIREMENTS. |
| | |
| | 12. NOTHING IS SHOWN ON THE AHU SCHEDULE REGARDING |
| | AUXILIARY DRAIN PROTECTION. PLEASE SHOW COMPLIANCE WITH |
| | FBCM 307.2.3. |
| | |
| | 13. OK. SEE COMMENT #5 FOR SMOKE DAMPER ACTUATION |
| | REQUIREMENTS. |
| | |
| | 14 THROUGH 19: OK |
| | |
| | 20. MECHANICAL PORTIONS OF THE ENERGY CALCULATIONS ARE |
| | OK. |
| | |
| | 21. OK |
| | |
| | NOTE: THE PRINTING OF MECHANICAL FLOOR PLANS, M1.01 AND |
| | M2.01, ARE OF POOR QUALITY. MANY OF THE SMALL NUMBERS |
| | RELATED TO DUCT SIZES AND AIR TERMINAL DESIGNATIONS |
| | ILLEGIBLE. CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS SHALL BE OF |
| | SUFFICIENT CLARITY TO INDICATE THE LOCATION, NATURE AND |
| | EXTENT OF THE WORK PROPOSED AND SHOW IN DETAIL THAT IT |
| | WILL CONFORM TO THE PROVISIONS OF THIS CODE IN |
| | ACCORDANCE WITH FBCB 106.1.1. WHEN RE-SUBMITTING, |
| | PLEASE ENSURE THAT ALL RELEVANT INFORMATION ON FLOOR |
| | PLANS IS CLEAR AND LEGIBLE. |
