| | PLEASE ADDRESS THE ITEMS NOTED BELOW: |
| | |
| | THIS PROJECT IS LOCATED IN A SPECIAL FLOOD HAZARD AREA. |
| | ON THE DATE (1/21/2014) THE PERMIT WAS APPLIED FOR, THE |
| | FLOOD MAP THAT WAS IN EFFECT HAD THIS PROPERTY AS AN A5 |
| | FLOOD ZONE WITH A BFE OF 7' NGVD 1929. THE CITY OF WEST |
| | PALM BEACH HAD A 6" FREEBOARD REQUIREMENTS AT THAT |
| | TIME. THEREFORE, THE LOWEST FLOOR ELEVATION FOR THE |
| | BUILDING AND EQUIPMENT SERVICING THE BUILDING WAS 7.5' |
| | NGVD. THIS IS THE DESIGN FLOOD ELEVATION OR DFE. |
| | |
| | 1) SPECIFY THE FINISH FLOOR ELEVATION FOR THE GROUND |
| | FLOOR ON THE FLOOR PLAN IN NGVD 1929. FBC 107.2.1 |
| | |
| | 2) THE FLOOD VENT CALCULATIONS FOR THE GARAGE AREA DO |
| | NOT APPEAR TO BE CORRECT. THE GARAGE IS 23' 4" X 47' 4" |
| | WHICH IS 1104.42 SQFT. THE STORAGE ROOM IS 21' 7" X 23' |
| | 4" WHICH EQUALS 503.60 SQFT. BOTH OF THESE AREAS ARE |
| | BELOW THE REQUIRED DFE OF 7.5' NGVD AND ARE ALLOWED TO |
| | BE DESIGNED FOR WET FLOOD PROOFING WITH FLOOD VENTS TO |
| | ALLOW FLOOD WATER TO ENTER AND LEAVE THE BUILDING. |
| | NON-ENGINEERED FLOOD OPENINGS ARE REQUIRED TO MEET THE |
| | PRESCRIPTIVE REQUIREMENT TO PROVIDE 1 SQUARE INCH OF |
| | NET OPEN AREA FOR EACH SQUARE FOOT OF ENCLOSED AREA, |
| | WHERE THE ENCLOSED AREA IS MEASURED ON THE EXTERIOR OF |
| | THE ENCLOSURE WALLS. ENGINEERED FLOOD OPENINGS HAVE AN |
| | EVALUATION REPORT THAT SPECIFY THE AMOUNT OF COVERAGE |
| | THAT THEY WILL PROVIDE. THE FLOOD VENTS ARE REQUIRED TO |
| | BE IN AT LEAST TWO DIFFERENT WALLS. ALSO THE AREA UNDER |
| | THE STAIRS IS REQUIRED TO BE OPEN OR HAVE FLOOD |
| | OPENINGS. SEE FEMA, NFIP TECHNICAL BULLETIN 1 FOR |
| | ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. SHOW COMPLIANCE. FBC-R322 |
| | |
| | 3) IN ADDITION TO THE FLOOD OPENINGS, THERE IS A |
| | REQUIREMENT THAT ALL MATERIALS THAT ARE BELOW THE DFE |
| | SHALL BE RESISTANT TO DAMAGE FROM FLOOD WATERS. SHOW |
| | COMPLIANCE. FBC-R322 |
| | |
| | 4) PLEASE SUBMIT A RESPONSE LETTER INDICATING HOW EACH |
| | OF THE REVIEW COMMENTS HAS BEEN ADDRESSED. |
