 CONT: CHANDLIER CONSTRUCTION
 TEL: (561)313-0297
  
 2010 FLORIDA BUILDING CODE W
 * WEST PALM BEACH ADMINISTRATIVE AMENDMENTS
  
 2010 EXISTING BUILDING CODE LEVEL II 701.3
 COMPLIANCE. ALL NEW CONSTRUCTION ELEMENTS, COMPONENTS,
 SYSTEMS, AND SPACES SHALL COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS
 OF THE FLORIDA BUILDING CODE, BUILDING.
  
 1ST REVIEW
 ACTION: DENIED
  
 1) PLEASE PROVIDE A DEMOLITION PLAN OF THE EXISTING
 SPACE, THE LAST ISSUED PERMIT FOR THIS SPACE WAS A
 DEMOLITION PERMIT 08110276 WHICH STILL HAD A CORRIDOR
 THAT LEAD FROM THE ELEVATOR LOBBY AREA TO THE WEST SET
 OF STAIRS. THE ADJACENT TENANT SPACE SHADED IN GREY
 DOES NOT HAVE ACCESS TO A STAIRWELL WITHOUT GOING
 THROUGH THE ELEVATOR LOBBY.
  
 2010 EXIST BLDG CODE SECTION 703.2.2 SUPPLEMENTAL SHAFT
 AND FLOOR OPENING ENCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS.
 WHERE THE WORK AREA ON ANY FLOOR EXCEEDS 50 PERCENT OF
 THAT FLOOR AREA, THE ENCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS OF SECTION
 703.2 SHALL APPLY TO VERTICAL OPENINGS OTHER THAN
 STAIRWAYS THROUGHOUT THE FLOOR. THIS WILL ENCLUDE THE
 NEED FOR ENCLOSURE OF ELEVATOR LOBBIES OR ONE OF THE
 SIX EXCEPTIONS, PLEASE SEE THE MEMORANDUM ON:
  
 ELEVATOR LOBBIES IN EXISTING HIGH RISE CONSTRUCTION
  
 DATE: JANUARY 3, 2011
  
 IT HAS RECENTLY BEEN BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION THAT MANY
 EXISTING HIGH RISE STRUCTURES IN OUR COMMUNITY WERE
 INITIALLY CONSTRUCTED OR HAVE BEEN SUBSEQUENTLY
 MODIFIED SO AS TO BE WITHOUT ?ELEVATOR LOBBIES?.
 ELEVATOR LOBBIES ARE FIRE RATED ENCLOSURES, ENCLOSING
 THE ELEVATOR SHAFT ITSELF WITH EACH FLOOR ABOVE THE
 FIRST FLOOR. THE LACK OF AN ELEVATOR LOBBY CAN, UNDER
 CERTAIN CONDITIONS, CONSTITUTE A SERIOUS CONCERN BY
 CREATING INCREASED POTENTIAL FOR SPREAD OF SMOKE OR
 FIRE THOUGH AN EXISTING HIGH RISE STRUCTURE DURING A
 FIRE EVENT.
 RESEARCH BY CITY STAFF INDICATES THE REQUIREMENT FOR
 RATING OF ELEVATOR SHAFT ENCLOSURES WAS CLEARLY
 IDENTIFIED IN THE 1929 CITY OF WEST PALM BEACH BUILDING
 CODE IN SECTIONS 1807 AND 1907 RESPECTIVELY, FOR TYPE I
 AND TYPE II STRUCTURES OVER THREE (3) STORIES, AS TWO
 (2) HOURS MINIMUM, AND ONE (1) HOUR FOR TYPE III
 STRUCTURES (SEE ATTACHED EXHIBIT 1). BY 1965 THE
 SOUTHERN STANDARD BUILDING CODE IN EFFECT IN THE CITY
 REQUIRED ELEVATOR ENCLOSURES WHICH ENCLOSED NOT MORE
 THAN THREE (3) ELEVATORS TO BE ENCLOSED IN TWO (2) HOUR
 RATED ENCLOSURES IN A SINGLE SECTION WHICH WAS SECTION
 701.3 (SEE EXHIBIT 2). INTERESTINGLY, THE TERM
 ?ELEVATOR LOBBY? ITSELF DOES NOT APPEAR IN THE BUILDING
 CODE ITSELF UNTIL SOMETIME BETWEEN THE 1973 AND 1978
 EDITIONS. HOWEVER, AS PREVIOUSLY STATED, THE
 REQUIREMENT FOR FIRE RATING ELEVATOR SHAFT ENCLOSURES
 AND ALL OPENINGS THERETO DATES AS FAR BACK AS 1929. THE
 1965 CODE ALSO REQUIRED THAT, ?THE PATH OF TRAVEL FROM
 ONE FLIGHT OF STAIRS TO THE NEXT SHALL NOT PASS
 DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF ELEVATOR DOORS.? THIS CRITERIA IS
 CONSISTENT WITH CURRENT CODE REQUIREMENT WHICH PROVIDES
 THAT ONLY ONE OF THE TWO REQUIRED STAIRS MAY OPEN INTO
 THE ELEVATOR LOBBY AND THAT EACH TENANCY IN A MULTIPLE
 TENANT CONDITION SHALL HAVE ACCESS TO BOTH STAIRS, AT
 LEAST ONE OF WHICH MAY BE ACCESSED WITHOUT PASSING
 THROUGH THE ELEVATOR LOBBY.
 TO SUMMARIZE CITY STAFF?S RESEARCH, THE REQUIREMENT FOR
 FIRE RATING OF AN ELEVATOR SHAFT ENCLOSURE HAS BEEN
 IDENTIFIED TO EXIST IN EVERY BUILDING CODE ADOPTED IN
 THIS CITY FROM THE 1930?S TO THE PRESENT DAY WITH ONLY
 ONE NOTABLE EXCEPTION. ON OCTOBER 1, 2005 WITH THE
 ENACTMENT OF THE 2004 FLORIDA BUILDING CODE, THE
 REQUIREMENT WAS AMENDED TO ALLOW THE ELIMINATION OF THE
 FIRE RATED ENCLOSURE IF THE CORRIDOR INTO WHICH THE
 ELEVATOR OPENED WAS NOT REQUIRED ITSELF TO BE RATED
 (SEE EXHIBIT 3). THIS REQUIREMENT WAS AMENDED AGAIN ON
 DECEMBER 8, 2006 WITH THE FIRST ?BLUE PAGE? AMENDMENTS
 TO THE 2004 FLORIDA BUILDING CODE (SEE EXHIBIT 4) WHICH
 RE-INSTITUTED THE REQUIREMENT FOR A FIRE RATED ELEVATOR
 LOBBY WITH THE SPECIFIC LIMITED EXCEPTIONS THAT EXIST
 TODAY (SEE EXHIBIT 5). THIS MEANS THAT BUILDINGS WHICH
 DO NOT MEET THE CURRENT (OR 1929) CODE MAY BE DEEMED
 ?LEGALLY-EXISTING NON-CONFORMING? IF A PERMIT WHICH
 DEMONSTRATES THE ELIMINATION OF SUCH A LOBBY CAN BE
 EVIDENCED WHICH WAS ISSUED ONLY DURING THE
 ABOVE-REFERENCED NARROW ?WINDOW? OF TIME BETWEEN
 OCTOBER 1, 2005 AND DECEMBER 8, 2006. HOWEVER, EVEN
 LEGALLY-EXISTING NON-CONFORMITIES MUST ALSO BE
 ADDRESSED AS RENOVATIONS OCCUR IN ACCORDANCE THE TERMS
 THAT FOLLOW.
 TO BETTER PREPARE BUILDING OWNERS, MANGERS, OPERATORS,
 AND DESIGN PROFESSIONALS TO ANTICIPATE AND ADDRESS
 THESE SPECIFIC CODE REQUIREMENTS, THE CONSTRUCTION
 SERVICES DEPARTMENT AND FIRE PREVENTION DEPARTMENT
 PROPOSE TO ADDRESS THE ABSENCE OF AN ELEVATOR LOBBY
 (WHEN REQUIRED) AS FOLLOWS:
  
 1. IF A TENANT IMPROVEMENT IS SUBMITTED WHICH PROPOSES
 TO RECONFIGURE THE ENTIRE EXISTING BUILDING FLOOR, AN
 ELEVATOR LOBBY, OR COMPLIANCE WITH ONE OF THE SIX (6)
 EXCEPTIONS ALLOWED UNDER THE PRESENT CODE WILL BE
 REQUIRED. THIS IS REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT THE
 ABSENCE OF AN ELEVATOR LOBBY CAN BE DEMONSTRATED WITH A
 VALID PERMIT ISSUED BETWEEN OCTOBER 1, 2005 AND
 DECEMBER 8, 2006.
 2. IF A TENANT IMPROVEMENT IS SUBMITTED WHICH PROPOSES
 TO RECONFIGURE A PORTION OF THE EXISTING BUILDING FLOOR
 AREA, WITH NO WORK BEING PROPOSED IN THE AREA OF THE
 ELEVATOR LOBBY, AND NO ELEVATOR LOBBY IS FOUND TO EXIST
 ON THE FLOOR, AND A VALID PERMIT CAN BE EVIDENCED WHICH
 WAS ISSUED BETWEEN OCTOBER 1, 2005 AND DECEMBER 8,
 2006, THE TENANT IMPROVEMENT PERMIT MAY BE APPROVED AND
 THE BUILDING SHALL REMAIN AS LAWFULLY CONFIGURED UNTIL
 THE MAJORITY OF THE EXISTING FLOOR PLAN, OR THE
 ELEVATOR LOBBY AREA ITSELF UNDERGOES RENOVATION.
 3. IF A TENANT IMPROVEMENT IS SUBMITTED WHICH PROPOSES
 TO RECONFIGURE A PORTION OF THE EXISTING BUILDING FLOOR
 AREA, WITH NO WORK BEING PROPOSED IN THE AREA OF THE
 ELEVATOR LOBBY, AND NO ELEVATOR LOBBY IS FOUND TO EXIST
 ON THE FLOOR, AND NO VALID PERMIT CAN BE EVIDENCED
 WHICH WAS ISSUED BETWEEN OCTOBER 1, 2005 AND DECEMBER
 8, 2006, THE TENANT IMPROVEMENT PERMIT MAY BE APPROVED.
 THE BUILDING OWNER WILL BE NOTIFIED OF AN UNSAFE
 CONDITION ON THE EXISTING STRUCTURE BY THE CITY FIRE
 MARSHAL?S OFFICE AND ASKED TO UNDERTAKE APPROPRIATE
 ACTIONS TO CORRECT THE SITUATION.
 4. IF ANY RECONFIGURATION IS PROPOSED WHICH AFFECTS THE
 ELEVATOR LOBBY AREA ITSELF, AN ELEVATOR LOBBY, OR
 COMPLIANCE WITH ONE OF THE SIX (6) EXCEPTIONS LISTED IN
 THE CODE SHALL BE REQUIRED.
  
 IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT CITY STAFF REMAINS COMMITTED TO
 ASSISTING BUILDING OWNERS, MANAGERS, AND DESIGN
 PROFESSIONALS IN SUCCEEDING IN CREATING AND MAINTAINING
 SAFE PLACES TO LIVE AND WORK IN OUR COMMUNITY. WE ARE
 READY AND WILLING TO PROVIDE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE IN
 UNDERSTANDING THE OFTEN COMPLEX CRITERIA THAT AFFECT
 EXISTING AND NEW HIGH RISE BUILDINGS. IT MUST BE STATED
 THAT THE SIMPLE INSTALLATION OF A HOIST-WAY
 PRESSURIZATION SYSTEM MAY BE ONE POTENTIAL METHOD TO
 ELIMINATE THE NEED FOR AN ELEVATOR LOBBY THROUGHOUT AN
 ENTIRE BUILDING. ANOTHER ALTERNATIVE IS TO INSTALL FIRE
 SHUTTERS AT THE ELEVATOR DOOR OPENINGS. THESE
 METHODOLOGIES MAY OFFER THE ADDED POTENTIAL TO INCREASE
 THE LEASABLE FLOOR AREA WITHIN THESE BUILDINGS.
  
 PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT US DIRECTLY IF WE CAN
 ASSIST YOU FURTHER IN UNDERSTANDING THESE CRITERIA AND
 HELP YOU TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF YOUR RESIDENTS,
 TENANTS, AND PROPERTY.

 2) PLEASE PROVIDE HOW THE CARD READERS ON DOORS 203 &
 231 WILL WORK TO ALLOW ENTRY TO THE WEST STAIRWELL DOOR
 IN CASE OF ELEVATOR LOBBY AREA FULL OF SMOKE AND
 THIS IS THE ONLY EMERGENCY ACCESS? FBC-B 1008.1.4.4.
