| | COMMENTS |
| | CODE: FBC 6TH EDITION (2017). |
| | |
| | ORIGINAL COMMENT: |
| | 1- IT LOOKS LIKE THE HOUSE WAS DESIGNED FOR SHINGLES AS |
| | A ROOF COVERING. PROPOSED ROOFING MATERIAL IS CONCRETE |
| | TILES. PROVIDE ENGINEERING ANALYSIS SHOWING THAT THE |
| | EXISTING STRUCTURE IS CAPABLE OF SUPPORTING THE |
| | ADDITIONAL LOAD. SEC. 107.2.1.2 CITY AMENDMENTS. |
| | |
| | RESPONSE: |
| | ENGINEER'S CERTIFICATION LETTER OF CONCRETE TILE REROOF |
| | SUBMITTED IS NOT CLEAR. IT SAYS THAT THE PROPOSED |
| | REROOFING ACTIVITIES WILL NOT REQUIRE MODIFICATIONS BUT |
| | AT THE SAME TIME IS SAYING THAT ADDITIONAL PLYWOOD AND |
| | WOOD FRAMING MEMBERS MAY BE REQUIRED. ENGINEER NEEDS TO |
| | BE SPECIFIC IF ADDITIONAL REINFORCEMENT IS REQUIRED AND |
| | NEEDS TO POINT OUT THE EXACT LOCATIONS. CLEARLY |
| | DESCRIBE EXISTING ROOFING SYSTEM. |
| | ALSO, CLARIFY THE LIMITATIONS. THE LIMITATIONS STATE |
| | THAT THE AREAS OF THE STRUCTURE BEYOND THE LIMITS OF |
| | THE ROOF FRAMING WERE NOT REVIEWED AND THAT THE SUBJECT |
| | ROOF ANALYSIS DOES NOT INDICATE SATISFACTORY OR MINIMUM |
| | COMPLIANCE WITH THE CURRENT EDITION OF THE FLORIDA |
| | BUILDING CODE. THE PURPOSE OF THE ENGINEER ANALYSIS IS |
| | TO SHOW THAT EXISTING STRUCTURE IN ITS ENTIRETY IS |
| | CAPABLE OF SUPPORTING THE ADDITIONAL LOAD. SEC. 707.2 |
| | FBC-EXISTING BUILDING. |
| | |
| | |
| | ORIGINAL COMMENT: |
| | 2- HOUSE VALUE IS MORE THAN $300.000. NEED TO COMPLY |
| | WITH THE ROOF TO WALL CONNECTIONS AS REQUIRED BY SEC. |
| | 706.8 FBC-EXISTING-BUILDING. |
| | RESPONSE: REPEAT COMMENT. NOT ADDRESSED. |

| | OF $300,000 OR MORE OR, IF THE BUILDING IS UNINSURED OR |
| | FOR WHICH DOCUMENTATION OF INSURED VALUE IS NOT |
| | PRESENTED, HAS A JUST VALUATION FOR THE STRUCTURE FOR |
| | PURPOSES OF AD VALOREM TAXATION OF $300,000 OR MORE: |
