| | FBC = FLORIDA BUILDING CODE, 5TH EDITION (2014) |
| | FBC B = FBC BUILDING |

| | 1. A0 INDICATES THE BUILDING TYPE AS IIB. PLEASE ADVISE |
| | AS TO HOW ENGINEER HAS MADE THIS DETERMINATION. OUR |

| | SPECIFICATION FOR A NAILABLE DECK. |
| | |
| | THE PREVIOUS REVIEWER RELIED ON THIS INFORMATION WHEN |
| | DOING THE REVIEW. FOR A COMBUSTIBLE BUILDING, THE FLAME |

| | STRINGENT REQUIREMENT OF 25 AS OPPOSED TO 200 FOR TYPE |
| | I/TYPE II BUILDINGS. |
