| | FBC 2004 CODE FAMILY W/ 2007 SUPPLEMENTS |
| | FBC CH.1 AS AMENDED BY THE CITY OF WEST PALM BEACH |
| | |
| | 1. PAGE M1.0: VENTILATION CALCULATIONS STATE THEY ARE |
| | BASED ON ASHRAE 62.1-2007. HOWEVER, THE REFERENCED |
| | STANDARD IS CURRENTLY ASHRAE 62.1-2004 EDITION IN |
| | ACCORDANCE WITH FBCM CHAPTER 15. PLEASE REFERENCE THE |
| | CORRECT STANDARD ON THE PLANS AT THE VENTILATION |
| | CALCULATIONS TABLE. |
| | |
| | 2. PAGE M1.0: THE DINING AREA DEFAULT OCCUPANT DENSITY |
| | BASED ON TABLE 6-1 FOR DINING ROOMS IS 70/1000 SQ. FT. |
| | WITH THE GIVEN SQUARE FOOTAGE OF 1800, THIS GIVES A |
| | DEFAULT OCCUPANT LOAD OF 126 PERSONS. BASED ON EQUATION |
| | 6-1, THE TOTAL OUTSIDE AIR REQUIRED FOR THE DINING |
| | AREAS IS 1269 CFM. PLEASE ADJUST OUTDOOR AIR QUANTITIES |
| | ACCORDINGLY. |
| | |
| | 3. PAGE M1.0: NOTE #1, WHICH REFERENCED |
| | 13-409.1.ABC.3.3 FOR SHUTOFF DAMPER CONTROLS, CALLS FOR |
| | MOTORIZED DAMPER ON THE OA INTAKE FOR AHU #1 WITH NO |
| | PROVISIONS FOR AHU #2 OR AHU #3. EVEN THOUGH THEY SHOW |
| | LESS THAN 300 CFM, A BACK DRAFT DAMPER, AT A MINIMUM, |
| | IS REQUIRED TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF THIS CODE |
| | SECTION. |
| | NOTE: BASED ON COMMENT #2, THE OUTSIDE AIR VOLUME FOR |
| | EACH UNIT IS LIKELY TO BE OVER 300 CFM AND THEREFORE A |
| | MOTORIZED DAMPER WILL BE REQUIRED. |
| | |
| | 4. PAGE M2.0: DIFFUSER AND FLEXIBLE DUCT DETAILS ARE |
| | NOT CODE COMPLIANT. THE MINIMUM WIDTH OF HANGERS AND |
| | SUPPORTS FOR FLEXIBLE DUCTS SHALL BE 1.5 INCHES AND THE |
| | MAXIMUM SAG BETWEEN SUPPORTS SHALL BE 1/2 INCH PER FOOT |
| | IN ACCORDANCE WITH FBCM 603.5.6.6. ADJUST DETAILS TO |
| | SHOW COMPLIANCE WITH THIS SECTION. |
| | |
| | NOTE: THE METHOD A ENERGY CALCULATIONS WHICH WERE |
| | SUBMITTED WITH THIS APPLICATION WERE NOT REVIEWED FOR |
| | COMPLIANCE WITH THE MECHANICAL PROVISIONS OF FBCB |
| | CHAPTER 13. METHOD A CALCULATIONS ARE NEITHER |
| | APPROPRIATE NOR REQUIRED FOR THIS PROJECT AS THIS IS |
| | NOT A WHOLE BUILDING AND DOES NOT QUALIFY AS A |
| | RENOVATION AS DEFINED IN FBCB SECTION 13-202. THE |
| | MINIMUM REQUIRED FOR COMPLIANCE WITH FBCB CHAPTER 13 |
| | FOR THIS PROJECT CAN BE FOUND IN SECTION 13-101.6 AND |
| | ARE AS FOLLOWS: |
| | |
| | THERMAL EFFICIENCY STANDARDS ARE SET FOR THE FOLLOWING |
| | BUILDING SYSTEMS WHERE NEW PRODUCTS ARE INSTALLED OR |
| | REPLACED IN EXISTING BUILDINGS, AND FOR WHICH A PERMIT |
| | MUST BE OBTAINED. SUCH SYSTEMS SHALL MEET THE MINIMUM |
| | EFFICIENCIES ALLOWED FOR THAT SYSTEM ON FORM 400C FOR |
| | COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS AND ON FORM 600C FOR RESIDENTIAL |
| | BUILDINGS. |
| | 1. HEATING, VENTILATING OR AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEMS; |
| | 2. SERVICE WATER OR POOL HEATING SYSTEMS; |
