| | CODE; FBC 5TH EDITION (2014). |
| | |
| | 1- ACCORDING TO PALM BEACH COUNTY PROPERTY APPRAISER |
| | THE VALUE OF THE STRUCTURE IS MORE THAN $300.000. NEED |
| | TO COMPLY WITH THE ROOF TO WALL CONNECTIONS AS REQUIRED |
| | BY SEC. 708.8 FBC-EXISTING BUILDING, 5TH EDITION |
| | (2014). |
| | EXCEPTION: "ROOF-TO-WALL CONNECTIONS SHALL NOT BE |
| | REQUIRED UNLESS EVALUATION AND INSTALLATION OF |
| | CONNECTIONS AT GABLE ENDS OR ALL CORNERS CAN BE |
| | COMPLETED FOR 15 PERCENT OF THE COST OF ROOF |
| | REPLACEMENT.". |
| | NOTE: A COMPLETE ITEMIZED EVALUATION AND COST ESTIMATE |
| | DONE BY QUALIFIED PEOPLE WILL BE REQUIRED WHEN THE |
| | EXCEPTION OPTION IS TAKEN. |
| | |
| | 2- RAS 117 CALCULATIONS SUBMITTED: |
| | A) NAIL SPACING SPECIFIED FOR THE CORNER AREAS NEEDS TO |
| | BE REVISED. ACCORDING TO CALCULATIONS SUBMITTED THE |
| | NAIL SPACING FOR TWO ROWS IS 3.64 INCHES. SEC. 8.1 RAS |
| | 117 DOESN'T ALLOW NAIL SPACING LESS THAN 4 INCHES. |
| | REVISE AS REQUIRED. |
| | |
| | B) FASTENER SPACING CONCLUSIONS/RECOMMENDATIONS ON PAGE |
| | 3 OF 3 IS VERY CONFUSING. FASTENER SPACING FOR CORNER |
| | AREA IS IN THE SAME PARAGRAPH OF THE FASTENER SPACING |
| | FOR PERIMETER AREA. SAME THING APPLIES TO FASTENER |
| | SPACING FOR FIELD AREA. CLEARLY PLACE THE FASTENER |
| | SPACING FOR EACH ROOF ZONE IN THE SAME PARAGRAPH TO |
| | AVOID CONFLICTS. SEC. 107.2.1 CITY AMENDMENTS. |
