| | 3RD REVIEW |
| | FEB. 23/ 2011 |
| | ACTION: DENIED |
| | |
| | 1) THE SOLAR ROOF POWERED ROOF VENTILATION FAN DOES |
| | HAVE A CURRENT FLORIDA APPROVAL UNDER THE 2007 FBC. THE |
| | SUBMITTAL THAT IS REFRENECING THE 14 INCH SOLAR STAR |
| | VENT AND LETTER OF EQIVALENCY REFRENCES THE ORIGINAL |
| | TEST WHICH EAS CONDUCTED UNDER 110 FASTEST MILE. IN |
| | 2001 |
| | WE USED ASCE7 98 110 FASTEST MILE. THE 2004 FBC THEN |
| | WENT TO ASCE 7-02 WHICH WAS A 3 SECOND GUST AND WIND |
| | SPEED OF 140 MPH. |
| | 2004 FBC-B TABLE 1609.3.1 PROVIDES THE EQUIVALENT WIND |
| | SPEEDS BETWEEN V3S & VFM. FOR OUR WIND SPEED ZONE OF |
| | 140 MPH (3 SECOND GUST) THE EQUIVALENT VFM WOULD BE |
| | 120, NOT 140. THIS UNIT DOES HAVE A FLORIDA APPROVAL |
| | BUT SHOULD NOT BE PERMITTED NAD INSTALLED WHERE THE |
| | WIND SPEEDS ARE GREATER THAN 120 3S GUST. |
| | |
| | I SPOKE WITH OUR ASST. BUILDING OFFICIAL AND NO LOCAL |
| | APROVAL CAN BE APPLIED FOR UNLESS AN ENGINEER WILL |
| | PROVIDE DOCUMENTATION WHERE THE MODEL IN QUESTION CAN |
| | PRODUCE DOCUMENTATION FOR COMPLIANCE WITH 140 3 SECOND |
| | GUST. PLEASE ALSO NOTE THIS LOCATION IS A "C" ZONE |
| | AND THE MEAN ROOF HEIGHT IS ABOVE 15'-0" PLEASE REVIEW |
| | MULTIPLIERS FOR EXPOSURE AND HEIGHT. |
| | |
| | |
| | FROM 1ST REVIEW! THE FL 10884 REPORT SUBMITTED FOR A |
| | SOLAR POWERED ROOF VENTILATION FAN DOES NOT INDICATE |
| | ANY WIND DESIGN CRITERIA BUT REFERS TO A MIAMI-DADE |
| | TEST REPORT 51567.01-122-18 THAT WAS COMPLETED UNDER |
| | THE 2001 VERSION OF THE FLORIDA BUILDING CODE AND TEST |
| | WAS FOR PRESSURES OF 110 MPH FASTEST MILE. THE 2004 & |
| | 2007 FBC USE A 3 SECOND GUST CONVERSION CHARTS WOULD |
| | MAKE THE 110 FASTEST MILE, 130 MPH 3 SECOND GUST.THE |
| | CITY OF WEST PALM BEACH IS LOCATED WITHIN A 140 MPH |
| | WIND ZONE. THIS PRODUCT WILL NEED TO BE RE-EVALUATED TO |
| | THE 140 MPH WIND ZONE, AND FIGURE IN THE HEIGHT AND |
| | EXPOSURE ADJUTMENT FACTORS. |
