| | 1. REVISE EXPOSURE CATEGORY OR EXPLAIN RATIONALE FOR |
| | EXPOSURE B. FBC1609, FBC R301.2.1.4. NOTE THAT THE CODE |
| | CHANGED EFFECTIVE MARCH 1, 2009. |
| | |
| | EXPOSURE B PLANS SUBMITTED. PLEASE SEE FBC R301.2.1.4. |
| | ALSO SEE THE ENGINEERING SUBMITTED, SHEET 3: EXPOSURE C |
| | INCLUDES A SITE WHICH HAS OPEN TERRAIN WITH SCATTERED |
| | OBSTRUCTIONS EXTENDING MORE THAN 1500 FEET FROM THE |
| | BUILDING SITE IN ANY QUADRANT. THIS PARCEL IS LOCATED |
| | ONE LOT FROM A PRESERVE; THEREFORE IT APPEARS THAT THIS |
| | WOULD BE CONSIDERED EXPOSURE C. IF THE ENGINEER WOULD |
| | LIKE TO PROVIDE A JUSTIFICATION FOR HIS RATIONALE FOR |
| | EXPOSURE B, PLEASE SUBMIT AS REQUESTED. A STATEMENT WAS |
| | HANDWRITTEN ON A COPY OF THE CODE (NOT INCLUDED IN THE |
| | ENGINEERING) WHICH STATES THAT THIS PARCEL IS 230 FEET |
| | FROM THE WATER, BUT THIS DOES NOT ADDRESS THE COMMENT - |
| | THE CODE REFERENCED CIRCLED IS RELATED TO THE |
| | REQUIREMENT FOR INCREASED ROOF UPLIFT DESIGN LOADS. THE |
| | CODE CIRCLED STATES THAT "EXPOSURE C SHALL APPLY FOR |
| | ALL CASES WHERE EXPOSURE B DOES NOT APPLY"; PLEASE SHOW |
| | HOW EXPOSURE B APPLIES TO THIS JOB BASED ON THE |
| | DEFINITION. THE RATIONALE FOR EXPOSURE B IS TO BE |
| | PREPARED BY THE ENGINEER. |
| | |
