| 2017-05-04 08:56:25 | 1) THE ICC LEGACY REPORT THAT HAS BEEN SUBMITTED IS |
| | UNACCEPTABLE. THE REPORT IS BASED ON THE 1997 UBC WHICH |
| | IS NOT RECCOGNIZED BY THE FBC AS A REFERENCED STANDARD. |
| | NOTE: THE SUBMITTED UL ASSEMBLY DESIGN IS ACCEPTABLE AS |
| | IT IS FOR A 2 HOUR ASSEMBLY IF THAT IS THE INTENT. |
| | 2) THE HORIZONTAL SHAFT ENCAPSULATING THE DRAIN LINES |
| | SHALLL BE 2 HOUR RATED. DRAWINGS 13A-A & 13A-B SHOW THE |
| | SHAFT AS 1 HOUR RATED. CLARIFY. |
| | 3) THE SUBMITTED NARRATIVE STATES THAT SHAFT ENCLOSURES |
| | CONNECTING LESS THAN 4 STORIES REQUIRE A 1 HOUR RATING |
| | WHICH IS CORRECT BUT THIS STRUCTURE IS 8 STORIES. |
| | PLEASE CLARIFY THIS RESPONSE. |
| | 4) THE NARRATIVE ALSO REFERS TO FBC SEC. 406.3.5 FOR |
| | ALLOWING A 1 HOUR ROOF RATING. THIS SECTION IS FOR AREA |
| | & HEIGHT IN THE 2010 FBC AND DOES NOT REFER TO ANY |
| | HOURLY RATING. CLARIFY. |
| | 5) THE NARRATIVE ALSO REFERS TO SEC. 713.4.2.1 OF THE |
| | FBC - THIS SECTION IN THE 2010 FBC REFERS TO |
| | NONCOMBUSTIBLE PENETRATING ITEMS THAT CONNECT NOT MORE |
| | THAN THREE STORIES ARE PERMITTED. THIS SECTION APPLIES |
| | TO NONFIRE - RESISTANCE RATED ASSEMBLIES. CLARIFY HOW |
| | THIS APPLIES TO THIS ISSUE WHEN THE STAIR ENCLOSURE IS |
| | A 2 HOUR RATED ENCLOSURE. |
| | 6) THE NARRATIVE ALSO REFERS TO FBC SEC.708.4 WHICH |
| | REFERS TO THE FIRE RATING OF SHAFT ENCLOSURES. THIS |
| | STRUCTURE IS 8 STORIES AND REQUIRES A 2 HOUR RATING FOR |
| | THE THE HORIZONTAL SHAFT ENCLOSURE. |
| | AT THIS POINT DUE TO THE DISCRPANCIES IN THE SUBMITTED |
| | DOCUMENTS I HAVE NO IDEA IF YOUR DESIGN IS GOING TO BE |
| | 2 HOUR RATED OR IF YOU ARE STILL ATTEMPTING TO GET A 1 |
| | HOUR RATING APPROVED WHICH DOES NOT MEET CODE. |
