| | MARSHAL, WITH THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS: |
| | |
| | |
| | 1) SHEET LS 1.1 - THERE APPEARS TO BE A NEW 1-HOUR WALL |
| | IS INDICATED WITHIN THE CENTER AREA OF THE BUILDING; |
| | HOWEVER THERE IS AN OPEN AREA AT THE FRONT DESK AREA. |
| | |
| | THERE IS NO NET FIRE SEPARATION FOR THIS NEW 1 HOUR |
| | WALL AND I'M NOT SURE OF THE DESING ATTEMPT. |
| | |
| | IS THIS A MIXED, SEPARATED OR NONSEPARATED OCCUPANCY? |
| | |
| | PER NFPA 101, CH 6, OCCUPANCY CLSSIFICATION |
| | |

| | CLASSIFIED AS TO ITS USE IN |
| | ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 6.1. |

| | TABLE 6.1.14.4.1(A), |
| | AND TABLE 6.1.14.4.1(B), UNLESS SEPARATION IS PROVIDED |
| | BY APPROVED |
| | EXISTING SEPARATIONS OR AS OTHERWISE PERMITTED BY |
| | 6.1.14.4.6. |
| | 6.1.14.4.2 OCCUPANCY SEPARATIONS SHALL BE CLASSIFIED AS |
| | 3-HOUR FIRE |
| | RESISTANCE?RATED, 2-HOUR FIRE RESISTANCE?RATED, OR |
| | 1-HOUR FIRE |

| | CHAPTER 8. |
| | 6.1.14.4.3 THE MINIMUM FIRE RESISTANCE RATING SPECIFIED |
| | IN TABLE |
| | 6.1.14.4.1(A) AND TABLE 6.1.14.4.1(B) SHALL BE |
| | PERMITTED TO BE |
| | REDUCED BY 1 HOUR, BUT IN NO CASE SHALL IT BE REDUCED |
| | TO LESS THAN 1 |
| | HOUR, WHERE THE BUILDING IS PROTECTED THROUGHOUT BY AN |
| | APPROVED |
| | AUTOMATIC SPRINKLER SYSTEM IN ACCORDANCE WITH |
| | 9.7.1.1(1) AND |
| | SUPERVISED IN ACCORDANCE WITH 9.7.2, UNLESS PROHIBITED |
| | BY THE |
| | DOUBLE-DAGGER FOOTNOTE ENTRIES IN THE TABLES. |
| | 6.1.14.4.4 OCCUPANCY SEPARATIONS SHALL BE VERTICAL, |
| | HORIZONTAL, OR |
| | BOTH OR, WHEN NECESSARY, OF SUCH OTHER FORM AS REQUIRED |
| | TO PROVIDE |
| | COMPLETE SEPARATION BETWEEN OCCUPANCY DIVISIONS IN THE |
| | BUILDING. |
| | 6.1.14.4.5* EACH SEPARATED PORTION OF THE BUILDING |
| | SHALL COMPLY |
| | WITH THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE OCCUPANCY THEREIN. |
| | |
| | PLEASE CLARIFY AND CORRECT ACCORDINGLY. |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | 2) SHEET LS 1.1 - THERE IS AN ASSEMBLY AREA INDICATED |
| | WITH TWO EXITS; ONE AT THE FRONT DOOR AND ONE THROUGH |

| | PER NFPA 101 CH 7, MEANS OF EGRESS |
| | |
| | 7.5.1.6 EXIT ACCESS FROM ROOMS OR SPACES SHALL BE |
| | PERMITTED TO BE |

| | OTHER AND BE |
| | ARRANGED TO MINIMIZE THE POSSIBILITY THAT MORE THAN ONE |
| | HAS THE |
| | POTENTIAL TO BE BLOCKED BY ANY ONE FIRE OR OTHER |
| | EMERGENCY |
| | CONDITION. |
