| | |
| | 1) SHEET M2.1: THE PLANS APPEAR TO INDICATE A NEW SHOP |

| | PROCESSES WILL OCCUR, WHAT PRODUCTS WILL BE FABRICATED. |
| | PLEASE PROVIDE A BRIEF NARRATIVE TO CLARIFY AND REFER |
| | TO SECTION 511 FBC M- COMPLETE PLANS AND DETAILS FOR A |
| | DUST COLLECTION SYSTEM ARE REQUIRED FOR WOODWORKING |
| | SHOPS. |
| | IN RESPONSE TO THE ABOVE COMMENT, THE LETTER FROM |
| | SCHMIDT NICHOLS TO PLANNING AND ZONING WAS SUBMITTED. |
| | IN PARAGRAPH 2 OF THE LETTER THE STATED USE OF THE |
| | SPACE IS FOR "ROOF BUILDER CONTRACTOR OPERATIONS". THIS |
| | STATEMENT DOES NOT CLARIFY WHAT PROCESSES WILL OCCUR IN |
| | THE SHOP AND WHAT MATERIALS- WOOD, METAL-PLASTICS, |
| | FIBERGLASS ETC.- WILL BE USED IN THOSE PROCESSES. AS |
| | STATED ABOVE A DUST COLLECTION SYSTEM MAY BE REQUIRED. |
| | THE LETTER ALSO INDICATES VEHICLE STORAGE INSIDE THE |
| | BUILDING. |
| | |

| | MANUFACTURER'S SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE FAN. |
| | |
| | 503.1: MOTORS AND FANS SHALL BE SIZED TO PROVIDE THE |
| | REQUIRED AIR MOVEMENT. MOTORS IN AREAS THAT CONTAIN |
| | FLAMMABLE VAPORS OR DUSTS SHALL BE OF A TYPE APPROVED |
| | FOR SUCH ENVIRONMENTS. A MANUALLY OPERATED REMOTE |
| | CONTROL INSTALLED AT AN APPROVED LOCATION SHALL BE |
| | PROVIDED TO SHUT OFF FANS OR BLOWERS IN FLAMMABLE VAPOR |
| | OR DUST SYSTEMS. ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT AND APPLIANCES |
| | USED IN OPERATIONS THAT GENERATE EXPLOSIVE OR FLAMMABLE |
| | VAPORS, FUMES OR DUSTS SHALL BE INTERLOCKED WITH THE |
| | VENTILATION SYSTEM SO THAT THE EQUIPMENT AND APPLIANCES |
| | CANNOT BE OPERATED UNLESS THE VENTILATION FANS ARE IN |
| | OPERATION. MOTORS FOR FANS USED TO CONVEY FLAMMABLE |
| | VAPORS OR DUSTS SHALL BE LOCATED OUTSIDE THE DUCT OR |
| | SHALL BE PROTECTED WITH APPROVED SHIELDS AND |
| | DUSTPROOFING. MOTORS AND FANS SHALL BE PROVIDED WITH A |
| | MEANS OF ACCESS FOR SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE. |

| | FLAMMABLE VAPORS, FUMES OR DUSTS SHALL BE OF NONFERROUS |
| | OR NONSPARKING MATERIALS, OR THEIR CASING SHALL BE |
| | LINED OR CONSTRUCTED OF SUCH MATERIAL. WHERE THE SIZE |
| | AND HARDNESS OF MATERIALS PASSING THROUGH A FAN ARE |
| | CAPABLE OF PRODUCING A SPARK, BOTH THE FAN AND THE |
| | CASING SHALL BE OF NONSPARKING MATERIALS. WHERE FANS |
| | ARE REQUIRED TO BE SPARK RESISTANT, THEIR BEARINGS |
| | SHALL NOT BE WITHIN THE AIRSTREAM, AND ALL PARTS OF THE |
| | FAN SHALL BE GROUNDED. FANS IN SYSTEMS-HANDLING |
| | MATERIALS THAT ARE CAPABLE OF CLOGGING THE BLADES, AND |
| | FANS IN BUFFING OR WOODWORKING EXHAUST SYSTEMS, SHALL |
| | BE OF THE RADIAL-BLADE OR TUBE-AXIAL TYPE. |
| | SHEET M6.1: THE NOTES UNDER THE EF-4 SCHEDULE STATE |
| | THAT THE FAN AND MOTOR SHALL COMPLY WITH SECTIONS 503.1 |
| | AND 503.2 PLEASE SHOW THE LOCATION OF THE MANUALLY |
| | OPERATED REMOTE CONTROL SWITCH AND PROVIDE THE SEQUENCE |
| | OF OPERATION FOR THE FAN. |
| | |
| | 3) M2.1: THE PLANS SHOW A GARAGE DOOR POSSIBLY FOR |
| | LOADING AND UNLOADING OF MATERIALS, PRODUCTS, ETC. |
| | PLEASE INDICATE IF MOTOR VEHICLES WILL ENTER INTO, OR |
| | BE STORED IN THE BUILDING, AND REFER TO TABLE 403.3.1.1 |
| | AND SECTION 404.1 FOR EXHAUST VENTILATION SYSTEM |
| | REQUIREMENTS. |

| | WILL BE VEHICLE STORAGE IN THE BUILDING. PLEASE PROVIDE |
| | AN EXHAUST VENTILATION SYSTEM IN THE AREAS OF VEHICLE |
| | STORAGE PER SECTION 404.1 AS NOTED ABOVE. |

| | WHEN RESUBMITTING, IT IS HELPFUL TO PROVIDE A RESPONSE |
| | LETTER ADDRESSING EACH ITEM ALONG WITH THE CITY |
| | RE-SUBMITTAL FORM. |
