| | |
| | ORIGINAL COMMENT: |
| | 1- ACCORDING TO PALM BEACH COUNTY PROPERTY APPRAISER, |
| | THE VALUE OF THE STRUCTURE IS $350.151. THEREFORE, NEED |
| | TO COMPLY WITH THE ROOF TO WALL CONNECTIONS AS REQUIRED |
| | BY SEC. 706.8 FBC-EXISTING BUILDING. SHOW COMPLIANCE. |
| | NOTE: A SEPARATE SUB-PERMIT IS REQUIRED FOR ROOF TO |
| | WALL CONNECTIONS. THIS WORK CAN NOT BE DONE BY THE |
| | ROOFING CONTRACTOR UNLESS ROOFING CONTRACTOR POSSESSES |
| | THE PROPER LICENSE TO PERFORM THIS WORK. |
| | |
| | RESPONSE: |
| | A) THE ROOF TO WALL PROPOSAL SUBMITTED IS FOR $3,850 |
| | AND IS FOR ENTIRE ROOF. ALSO, THE PROPOSAL WAS DONE BY |
| | BENTLEY ROOFING (ROOFING CONTRACTOR). ROOFING |
| | CONTRACTOR CAN NOT PERFORM THE WORK UNLESS HOLDING A |
| | LICENSE THAT ALLOWS THIS SCOPE OF WORK . A DETAILED |
| | PROPOSAL NEEDS TO BE DONE BY LICENSE CONTRACTOR WHO CAN |
| | PERFORM THE WORK. PROVIDE PROPOSAL WITH CONTRACTOR'S |
| | LETTERHEAD. THE PROPOSAL NEEDS TO HAVE A DETAILED |
| | BREAKDOWN THAT INCLUDES THE SPECIFIC HURRICANE STRAPS |
| | AND AREAS WHERE STRAPS WILL BE INSTALLED IN ORDER TO |
| | DETERMINE IF THE 15% EXCEPTION #2 OF SEC. 706.8.1 |
| | FBC-EXISTING BUILDING APPLIES. |
| | |
| | SEE COPY OF EXCEPTION #2 OF SEC. 706.8.1 FBC-EXISTING |
| | BUILDING BELOW. |
| | |
| | SECTION 706.8.1 ROOF-TO-WALL CONNECTIONS FOR SITE-BUILT |
| | SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURES. |
| | EXCEPTIONS: |
| | #2) .ROOF-TO-WALL CONNECTIONS SHALL NOT BE REQUIRED |
| | UNLESS EVALUATION AND INSTALLATION OF CONNECTIONS AT |
| | GABLE ENDS OR ALL CORNERS CAN BE COMPLETED FOR 15 |
| | PERCENT OF THE COST OF ROOF REPLACEMENT. |
| | |
| | B) FOR ADDITIONAL CLARIFICATION: SEC. 706.8 (B) |
| | FBC-EXISTING BUILDING SPECIES THAT MANDATED ROOF TO |
| | WALL CONNECTIONS ARE NOT REQUIRED BEYOND A 15 PERCENT |
| | INCREASE IN THE COST OF RE-ROOFING. THIS MEANS THAT THE |
| | FIRST 15 PERCENT IS REQUIRED. |
| | THE EXCEPTION #2 OF SEC. 706.8.1 ONLY APPLIES IF IT IS |
| | DETERMINED THAT THE INITIAL 15% WILL BE EXEMPT, THEN NO |
| | ROOF TO WALL CONNECTIONS WILL BE REQUIRED. THAT'S WHY |
| | THE LICENSE CONTRACTOR DETAILED BREAKDOWN IS REQUIRED. |
| | |
| | SECTION 706.8 (B) MANDATED RETROFITS OF THE |
| | ROOF-TO-WALL CONNECTION SHALL NOT BE REQUIRED BEYOND A |
| | 15 PERCENT INCREASE IN THE COST OF REROOFING. |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | C) IF IT IS DETERMINED THAT AT LEAST THE INITIAL 15% |
| | PERCENT OF THE ROOF TO WALL CONNECTIONS NEEDS TO BE |
| | DONE, THEN PROVIDE EITHER AN ENGINEERED DESIGN OR A |
| | PRESCRIPTIVE METHOD AS ALLOWED BY SEC. 706.8.1 |
| | FBC-BUILDING SHOWING HOW THE WORK WILL BE DONE. CLEARLY |
| | SPECIFY HURRICANE STRAP AND PROPOSED LOCATIONS. |
