| | DENIED: |
| | |
| | IF THIS PROJECT IS A-3, THEN A UNISEX RESTROOM WILL BE |
| | REQUIRED. THIS RESTROOM CAN COUNT AS PART OF THE |
| | REQUIRED FIXTURE COUNT. |
| | 1. FBC PLUMBING 403.7 UNISEX TOILET AND BATHING ROOMS. |
| | IN ASSEMBLY AND MERCANTILE OCCUPANCIES, AN ACCESSIBLE |
| | UNISEX TOILET ROOM SHALL BE PROVIDED WHERE AN AGGREGATE |
| | OF SIX OR MORE MALE AND FEMALE WATER CLOSETS IS |
| | REQUIRED. IN BUILDINGS OF MIXED OCCUPANCY, ONLY THOSE |
| | WATER CLOSETS REQUIRED FOR THE ASSEMBLY OR MERCANTILE |
| | OCCUPANCY SHALL BE USED TO DETERMINE THE UNISEX TOILET |
| | ROOM REQUIREMENT. IN RECREATIONAL FACILITIES WHERE |
| | SEPARATE-SEX BATHING ROOMS ARE PROVIDED, AN ACCESSIBLE |
| | UNISEX BATHING ROOM SHALL BE PROVIDED. FIXTURES LOCATED |
| | WITHIN UNISEX TOILET AND BATHING ROOMS SHALL BE |
| | INCLUDED IN DETERMINING THE NUMBER OF FIXTURES PROVIDED |
| | IN AN OCCUPANCY. |
| | |
| | 2. THE NEW MENS ROOM REQUIRES AN ADA STALL COMPLIANT |

| | THE STANDARD ACCESSIBLE RESTROOM STALL SHALL CONTAIN AN |
| | ACCESSIBLE LAVATORY WITHIN IT, THE SIZE OF SUCH |
| | LAVATORY TO BE NOT LESS THAN 19 INCHES WIDE BY 17 |
| | INCHES (483 MM BY 432 MM) DEEP, NOMINAL SIZE, AND WALL |
| | MOUNTED. THE LAVATORY SHALL BE MOUNTED SO AS NOT TO |

| | 11-4.17 [SEE FIGURE 30(A) AND FIGURE 30(E)] AND TO |
| | COMPLY WITH SECTION 11-4.19 OF THE CODE. SUCH |
| | LAVATORIES SHALL BE COUNTED AS PART OF THE REQUIRED |
| | FIXTURE COUNT FOR THE BUILDING. |
| | |
| | 3. THE WOMENS RESTROOM HAS MORE THAN 6 WATER CLOSETS SO |
| | IT WILL REQUIRE A STALL THAT COMPLIES WITH FIGURE |
| | 11-4.17.3 - 36" WIDE WITH PARALLEL GRAB BARS. |
| | 11-4.22.4 WATER CLOSETS. IF TOILET STALLS ARE PROVIDED, |

| | 3. THE FIXTURE UNIT COUNT FOR THE NEW FIXTURES SHOWN ON |
| | P-1 IS 71 FIXTURE UNITS. THE COLD WATER SUPPLY IS SHOWN |
| | AS 3/4". TABLE 603.1 REQUIRES 1 1/2" FOR 71 FU. THE |
| | DROP FOR THE WOMENS ROOM WOULD BE 1" FOR 45 FU. |
| | 604.1 GENERAL. THE DESIGN OF THE WATER DISTRIBUTION |
| | SYSTEM SHALL CONFORM TO ACCEPTED ENGINEERING PRACTICE. |
| | METHODS UTILIZED TO DETERMINE PIPE SIZES SHALL BE |
| | APPROVED. TABLE 603.1 SHALL BE PERMITTED TO BE USED TO |
| | SIZE THE WATER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM. |
| | |
| | 4. WHERE THE MULTIPLE WATER CLOSETS ARE SHOWN, A DRY |
| | VENT BETWEEN THE TWO MOST UPSTREAM WATER CLOSETS IS |
| | REQUIRED |
| | 911.2 VENT CONNECTION. THE CIRCUIT VENT CONNECTION |
| | SHALL BE LOCATED BETWEEN THE TWO MOST UPSTREAM FIXTURE |
| | DRAINS. THE VENT SHALL CONNECT TO THE HORIZONTAL BRANCH |

| | ***NOTE*** |
| | IF THE PROJECT IS A-3 AND THE OCCUPANT LOAD FOR MEN IS |
| | 1100, THE WC FIXTURE COUNT FOR MEN WOULD BE 9 ( 9 X 125 |
| | = 1125 MEN). THE PLAN SHOWS TOTAL OF TEN WC AND |
| | URINALS. |
| | ALSO THE UNISEX RESTROOM IS PERMITTED TO BE PART OF THE |
| | FIXTURE COUNT FOR MEN OR WOMEN. |
