| | IDENTIFY DOORS, ROOMS, OR CORRIDORS. FOR INSTANCE, |
| | THERE ARE FIVE DIFFERENT ROOMS LABELED "EXISTING |
| | CLASSROOM". THERE ARE MANY DOORS BUT THEY ARE NOT |
| | LABELED, AND AS THE ROOMS AND CORRIDORS ARE NOT LABELED |
| | IT IS DIFFICULT FOR ME TO IDENTIFY WHICH DOOR, ROOM, OR |
| | CORRIDOR IS REFERRED TO IN THE COMMENT. ROOM |
| | DESIGNATION NUMBERS, OR A DOOR SCHEDULE, WOULD BE |
| | HELPFUL. |
| | |

| | 12. SHOW MANEUVERING CLEARANCE FOR DOORS, FBC FIGURE |
| | 11-25, PULL SIDE. |
| | |
| | 13. A2, DETAIL LABELED AS "GUARDRAIL". NOTE THAT A |
| | GUARDRAIL IS REQUIRED TO BE 42", BUT THIS IS SHOWN AS |
| | 36". IS A GUARDRAIL REQUIRED? FBC1012.1. IS THIS A |
| | HANDRAIL RATHER THAN A GUARDRAIL? |
| | |
| | 14. A TYPICAL INTERIOR PARTITION DETAIL WAS PROVIDED. |
| | HOWEVER, IT IS NOT CLEAR WHAT THIS IS FOR; EXISTING OR |
| | PROPOSED? ALSO (WALL LEGEND) NOTE THAT THE GRAPHIC FOR |
| | THE BLOCK WALL DOES NOT MATCH THE GRAPHIC USED FOR THE |

| | 17. A3, LIFE SAFETY PLAN, THE PATH OF TRAVEL SHOULD BE |
| | MEASURED ALONG THE PATH OF ANTICIPATED TRAVEL. IT IS |
| | SHOWN GOING THROUGH THE CENTER OF THE ROOM, WHERE A |
| | CLASSROOM WOULD NORMALLY HAVE CHAIRS AND DESKS. PATH OF |
| | TRAVEL SHOULD BE SHOWN ALONG THE PERIMETER OF THE ROOM. |
| | |
| | 18. PROVIDE MORE INFORMATION REGARDING THE EXIT |
| | DISCHARGE. THE LIFE SAFETY PLAN MEASURES TO THE RAMP |
| | BASE. IS THIS THE OUTSIDE? A DOOR IS SHOWN ADJACENT TO |
