| | FBC B- FLORIDA BUILDING CODE |
| | FBC M- FLORIDA MECHANICAL CODE |
| | FBC EC- FLORIDA ENERGY CONSERVATION |
| | FBC FG- FLORIDA FUEL GAS |
| | FBC EX- FLORIDA EXISTING BUILDING CODE |

| | |
| | PLAN REVIEW RESULTS: DENIED. |
| | |
| | 1) TABLE 403.3.1.1 OF THE FBC M ONLY ADDRESSES EXHAUST |
| | IN REPAIR GARAGES. THE MINIMUM REQUIRED EXHAUST RATE |
| | FOR A REPAIR GARAGE IS .75 CFM X SQ.FT. OF THE SPACE. |
| | THE SYSTEM YOU ARE PROPOSING IS MORE IN LINE OF AN |
| | ENCLOSED PARKING GARAGE. THESE ARE 2 VERY DIFFERENT |
| | OCCUPANCIES, A PARKING GARAGE VENTILATION IS NOT |
| | DESIGNED WITH PEOPLE BEING INSIDE THIS SPACE FOR AN 8 |
| | HOUR SHIFT. THE EXHAUST VENTILATION CALCULATION FOR A |
| | REPAIR GARAGE DOES TAKE THIS INTO CONSIDERATION. THIS |
| | DESIGN FOR CONDITIONING THIS REPAIR GARAGE DOES NOT |
| | SHOW THE REQUIRED EXHAUST AIR OF 5160 CFM. I WOULD |
| | SUGGEST AN AHU WITH 100% OUTDOOR AIR WHICH WOULD NEED |
| | TO BRING IN THE 5160 CFM AND RETURN OUTDOORS THE 5160 |
| | CFM. SECTION 401.3 OF THE FBCM STATES VENTILATION SHALL |
| | BE PROVIDED DURING THE PERIODS THAT THE ROOM OR SPACE |
| | IS OCCUPIED. TABLE 403.3.1.1 OF THE FBC M SPECIFIES |
| | THAT THE 6180 SQ FT X .75 = 5,160 CFM OF EXHAUST AIR |
| | WHILE THE SPACE IS OCCUPIED. |
| | |
| | |
| | WHEN RESUBMITTING, IT IS HELPFUL TO PROVIDE A RESPONSE |
| | LETTER ADDRESSING EACH ITEM ALONG WITH THE CITY |
| | RE-SUBMITTAL FORM. ADDITIONALLY, PLEASE INSERT |
| | CORRECTED PLAN SHEETS INTO THE SETS, REMOVE THE OLD |
| | SHEETS FROM THE PLAN SETS, BIND THEM TOGETHER |
| | SEPARATELY AND MARK VOID OR OLD ON THEM. PLEASE RETAIN |
| | THEM FOR REFERENCE WITH THE NEW SUBMITTED PLANS. THIS |
| | PROCESS WILL ALSO APPLY TO ANY DOCUMENTS SUCH AS |
| | PRODUCT APPROVALS OR CALCULATIONS BEING REPLACED OR |
| | UPDATED. |
