| | 2017 FLORIDA BUILDING CODE W 2017 WEST PALM BEACH |
| | AMENDMENTS TO THE FLORIDA BUILDING CODE, CHAPTER 1, |
| | ADMINISTRATION. |
| | |
| | 2017 EXISTING BUILDING CODE. 801.3 COMPLIANCE. ALL NEW |
| | CONSTRUCTION ELEMENTS, COMPONENTS, SYSTEMS, AND SPACES |
| | SHALL COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE FLORIDA |
| | BUILDING CODE, BUILDING. |
| | |
| | 3RD REVIEW |
| | DATE: SAT. NOV. 16TH/2019 |
| | ACTION: DENIED |
| | |
| | 1-7 COMPLIED. |
| | |
| | 8) SEMI-COMPLIED. |
| | 8A) THIS REVIEW THE DESIGNER OF RECORD HAS SHOWN THE |
| | LOCATION OF A HI-LOW DRINKING FOUNTAIN. SINCE THE |
| | DRINKING FOUNTAIN IS NOT LOCATED IN AN ALCOVE THE |
| | DRINKING FOUNTAIN WILL ALSO NEED TO SHOW COMPLIANCE |
| | WITH PROTRUDING OBJECTS. PLEASE REVIEW THE 2017 |
| | FBC-ACCESSIBILITY CODE SECTION: |
| | |
| | 307.2 PROTRUSION LIMITS. OBJECTS WITH LEADING EDGES |
| | MORE THAN 27 INCHES (685 MM) AND NOT MORE THAN 80 |
| | INCHES (2030 MM) ABOVE THE FINISH FLOOR OR GROUND SHALL |
| | PROTRUDE 4 INCHES (100 MM) MAXIMUM HORIZONTALLY INTO |
| | THE CIRCULATION PATH. |
| | |
| | 8B) RESTROOMS, SEMI-COMPLIED. THE LIFE-SAFETY SHEET NOW |
| | SHOWS ELEVATIONS FOR THE RESTROOMS. ONE ISSUE WITH THE |
| | ELEVATION VIEW IS THE DIMENSIONING FOR HEIGHTS OF THE |
| | WATER CLOSET GRAB BARS. I T APPEARS THAT THE |
| | MEASUREMENT IS BEING TAKEN FROM FINISH FLOOR TO THE |
| | CENTERLINE OF THE GRAB BAR. NOTE THE RANGE IS CORRECT |
| | BUT THE 2017 FBC-ACCESSIBILITY CODE DOES NOT TAKE THE |
| | MEASUREMENT TO THE CENTERLINE BUT FROM FINISH FLOOR TO |
| | THE TOP OF THE GRASPABLE SURFACE. THAT COULD MAKE AN |
| | ELEVATION CHANGE FROM 5/8 INCH TO 1 INCH HIGHER THAN |
| | WOULD BE ALLOWED IF THE CONTRACTOR PLACED THE GRAB BAR |
| | AT 36 INCHES FROM FINISH FLOOR TO CENTERLINE. |
| | 2017 ACCESSIBILITY CODE SECTION 609.4 POSITION OF GRAB |
| | BARS. GRAB BARS SHALL BE INSTALLED IN A HORIZONTAL |
| | POSITION, 33 INCHES MINIMUM AND 36 INCHES MAXIMUM ABOVE |
| | THE FINISH FLOOR MEASURED TO THE TOP OF THE GRIPPING |
| | SURFACE, NOT CENTERLINE. |
| | |
| | 8C) THE OTHER ISSUE IS WITH THE DIMENSIONING OF THE |
| | TOILET PAPER DISPENSER. THE ELEVATION DRAWINGS SHOW |
| | DIMENSIONING OF 36 INCHES FROM THE REAR WALL TO THE |
| | CENTERLINE OF THE DISPENSER. WITH NOT GIVING THE |
| | DIMENSION OF THE FRONT OF THE WATERCLOSET FROM OF THE |
| | BACK WALL THIS IS THEN AN UNKNOWN DISTANCE BETWEEN THE |
| | FRONT OF THE WATERCLOSET AND THE CENTERLINE OF THE |
| | DISPENSER. THE 2017 FBC-ACCESSIBILITY CODE REQUIRES |
| | DIMENSIONING FROM THE FRONT OF THE WATERCLOSET TO |
| | CENTERLINE OF THE DISPENSER. |
| | |
| | TOILET PAPER DISPENSERS. 2017 FBC-ACCESS. CODE 604.7 |
| | DISPENSERS. TOILET PAPER DISPENSERS SHALL COMPLY WITH |
| | 309.4 AND SHALL BE 7 INCHES MINIMUM AND 9 INCHES |
| | MAXIMUM IN FRONT OF THE WATER CLOSET MEASURED TO THE |
| | CENTERLINE OF THE DISPENSER. THE OUTLET OF THE |
| | DISPENSER SHALL BE 15 INCHES MINIMUM AND 48 INCHES |
| | MAXIMUM ABOVE THE FINISH FLOOR AND SHALL NOT BE LOCATED |
| | BEHIND GRAB BARS. DISPENSERS SHALL NOT BE OF A TYPE |
| | THAT CONTROLS DELIVERY OR THAT DOES NOT ALLOW |
| | CONTINUOUS PAPER FLOW. |
| | |
| | 9) NEW COMMENT. PLEASE REFER TO THE M-1 SHEET. THIS |
| | ISSUE IS WITH THE LOCATION OF SMOKE DETECTORS. |
| | THE PLANS LIST THE REQUIREMENT FOR SMOKE DETECTORS IN 2 |
| | LOCATIONS, (1) SMOKE DETECTORS IN PLENUMS AND (2) SMOKE |
| | DETECTORS ARE TO BE IN COMPRESSORS. |
| | PLEASE UPDATE THE PLANS TO SHOW COMPLIANCE WITH: |
| | |
| | SMOKE DETECTOR LOCATIONS: 2017 FBC-B 907.3 FIRE SAFETY |
| | FUNCTIONS. |
| | 907.3.1 DUCT SMOKE DETECTORS. SMOKE DETECTORS INSTALLED |
| | IN DUCTS SHALL BE LISTED FOR THE AIR VELOCITY, |
| | TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY PRESENT IN THE DUCT AND SHALL |
| | PERFORM THE INTENDED FIRE SAFETY FUNCTION IN ACCORDANCE |
| | WITH THIS CODE AND THE FLORIDA BUILDING CODE, |
| | MECHANICAL. |
| | |
| | 2017 FBC-MECHANICAL CODE SECTION 606.2.1. TO PREVENT |
| | THE RECIRCULATION OF DANGEROUS QUANTITIES OF SMOKE, A |
| | DETECTOR APPROVED FOR AIR DUCT USE SHALL BE INSTALLED |
| | ON THE SUPPLY SIDE OF AIR-HANDLING SYSTEMS AS REQUIRED |
| | BY NFPA 90A. STANDARD FOR THE INSTALLATION OF AIR |
| | CONDITIONING AND VENTILATING SYSTEMS. SMOKE DETECTORS |
| | LISTED FOR USE IN AIR DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS SHALL BE |
| | LOCATED DOWNSTREAM OF THE AIR FILTERS AND AHEAD OF ANY |
| | BRANCH CONNECTIONS IN AIR SUPPLY SYSTEMS HAVING THE |
| | CAPACITY GREATER THAN 2000 CUFT/MIN. |
| | |
| | 10) WHEN RESUBMITTING PLANS PLEASE INDICATE THE |
| | REVISION & REMOVE ANY VOIDED SHEETS & REPLACE ANY PAGES |
| | AS NECESSARY. A TRANSMITTAL LETTER LISTING THE ORIGINAL |
| | REVIEW COMMENT NUMBER, WITH A DESCRIPTION OF THE |
| | REVISION MADE, IDENTIFYING THE SHEET OR SPECIFICATION |
| | PAGE WHERE THE CHANGES CAN BE FOUND WILL HELP TO |
| | EXPEDITE YOUR PERMIT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ANTICIPATED |
| | COOPERATION. |
