| | 3) THE FRENCH DOOR THAT IS MARKED AS EXISTING DOOR ON |
| | THE PLANS WAS INSTALLED WITHOUT PERMITS OR INSPECTIONS. |

| | MODEL THAT WILL BE WITH DIFFERENT ORIENTATIONS. THIS IS |
| | A ONE OF A KIND STRUCTURE AND IT IS SITE SPECIFIC. |
| | THEREFORE, YOU CAN NOT USE THE WORST CASE ORIENTATION |
| | ON THE FORM. USE THE ACTUAL ORIENTATION OF THE BUILDING |
