| 2017-08-01 11:16:58 | THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS WERE SUBMITTED BY PETER LEDUC, |
| | FIRE MARSHAL, BUREAU OF FIRE PREVENTION, WEST PALM |
| | BEACH FIRE RESCUE. |
| | |
| | THIS REVIEW CAN ONLY BE CONSIDERED PRELIMINARY AS THE |
| | DRAWINGS THAT WERE REVIEWED WERE NOT COMPLETE. |
| | ADDITIONAL COMMENTS CAN BE EXPECTED WHEN FULL DRAWINGS |
| | ARE SUBMITTED FOR PERMIT. |
| | |
| | THE FIRE PREVENTION BUREAU HAS NO OBJECTIONS TO THE |
| | PROPOSED PROJECT. |
| | |
| | 1. CONSTRUCTION, DEMOLITION, AND RENOVATION TO COMPLY |
| | WITH NFPA 241. EXTRA ATTENTION SHALL BE GIVEN TO THE |
| | PERMITTING AND LOCATION OF CONSTRUCTION TRAILERS. A |
| | PERMIT IS REQUIRED FOR ANY CONSTRUCTION TRAILER RELATED |
| | TO THIS PROJECT. SEPARATION DISTANCES FROM MAIN |
| | STRUCTURES AS WELL AS OTHER TRAILERS SHALL BE CLOSELY |
| | MONITORED FOR THE REQUIREMENTS OF FIRE SPRINKLER |
| | PROTECTION. |
| | |
| | |
| | 2. SITE ACCESS AND EXIT POINTS ARE TO BE CLEARLY |
| | IDENTIFIED AND MAINTAINED FOR EMERGENCY VEHICLES DURING |
| | ALL CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES. |
| | |
| | |
| | 3. THE BUILDING ADDRESS SHALL BE CLEARLY VISIBLE FROM |
| | ALL ACCESS ROADWAYS, INCLUDING DURING CONSTRUCTION. |
| | ADDRESS NUMBERS SHALL CONTRAST WITH THEIR BACKGROUND |
| | AND SHALL NOT BE LESS THAN SIX (6) INCHES IN HEIGHT |
| | WITH A ONE (1) INCH STROKE FOR ALL BUILDINGS. |
| | |
| | |
| | 4. DURING CONSTRUCTION, TRASH AND DEBRIS IS TO BE |
| | REMOVED FROM THE SITE DAILY OR MORE OFTEN TO REDUCE THE |
| | ACCUMULATION OF POTENTIAL LIFE AND FIRE SAFETY HAZARDS. |
| | |
| | |
| | 5. THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE BUILDING SHALL COMPLY WITH |
| | THE 5TH EDITION OF THE FLORIDA FIRE PREVENTION CODE, |
| | INCLUDING NFPA 1 & 101, AND ALL ASSOCIATED FIRE CODES. |
| | |
| | |
| | 6. THERE ARE INDICATIONS OF EXISTING FUEL TANKS AND/OR |
| | FUEL LINES UNDER THE PROPOSED PARKING AREA. |
| | |
| | PLEASE ENSURE THAT THE DEPTH OF COVER MEETS THE |
| | REQUIREMENTS OF THE APPLICABLE CODE AS WELL FOR THE |
| | SIZE AND WEIGHT OF VEHILCES. |
| | |
| | |
| | 7. 12' WIDE IS INDICATED FOR THE PARKING SPACES ON THE |
| | WEST SIDE. |
| | |
| | I AM NOT SURE THAT THIS DIMENSION WILL FACILTATE |
| | PARKING OF THE VARIOUS RESCUE VEHICLES. MANY OF THE |
| | EMERGENCY VEHICLES HAVE LIMITED TURNING RADIUS AND MAY |
| | NOT BE ABLE TO NAVIGATE INTO, OR OUT OF A PARKING SPACE |
| | AS PROPOSED. |
| | |
| | |
| | 8. FOR PLAN REVIEW PURPOSES COMPLETE LIFE SAFETY PLANS |
| | FOR THE ER SHALL BE PROVIDED THAT ILLUSTRATE OCCUPANT |
| | LOADS, TRAVEL DISTANCES, COMMON PATHS OF TRAVEL, |
| | DEAD-END CORRIDORS, EXIT SIGNS, EMERGENCY LIGHTING, |
| | EXITS LEADING TO A PUBLIC WAY, FIRE EXTINGUISHER |
| | LOCATIONS, AND ALL FIRE SAFETY FEATURES AND EQUIPMENT. |
| | |
| | BE SURE TO INCLUDE HOW ALL EGRESS ROUTES AND REQUIRED |
| | EXITS WILL BE MAINTAINED DURING ALL PHASES OF |
| | CONSTRUCTION. |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | 9. THE BUREAU'S APPROVAL OF THIS SUBMITTED PROJECT DOES |
| | NOT CONSTITUTE IT'S FINAL REVIEW OR APPROVAL. |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | 10. THE BUREAU SHALL REVIEW ALL SUBMITTED BUILDING |
| | PLANS AT THE APPROPRIATE TIME AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH |
| | THE REQUIREMENTS OF ALL APPLICABLE CODES AND STANDARDS. |
