| | COMPOSITE MATERIALS. IN THIS CASE THE MINIMUM BUILDING |
| | YPE IS UNKNOWN AND WILL NEED TO BE IDENTIFIED BUT THERE |
| | ARE GENERAL CODE SECTIONS THAT WILL NEED FURTHER |
| | DOCUMENTATION FOR CODE COMPLIANCE: |
| | 2A) SUBMIT MANUFACTURES TESSTING FOR COMPONENTS AND |
| | CLADDING AND ASSOCIATED PRESSURES. |
| | 1407.4 STRUCTURAL DESIGN. MCM SYSTEMS SHALL BE DESIGNED |
| | AND CONSTRUCTED TO RESIST WIND LOADS AS REQUIRED BY |
| | CHAPTER 16 FOR COMPONENTS AND CLADDING. |
| | 2B) 1407.5 APPROVAL. RESULTS OF APPROVED TESTS OR AN |
| | ENGINEERING ANALYSIS SHALL BE SUBMITTED TO THE BUILDING |
| | OFFICIAL TO VERIFY COMPLIANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF |
| | CHAPTER 16 FOR WIND LOADS. |
| | |
| | 2C) 1407.6 WEATHER RESISTANCE. MCM SYSTEMS SHALL COMPLY |
| | WITH SECTION 1403 AND SHALL BE DESIGNED AND CONSTRUCTED |

| | 3) 1407.9 SURFACE-BURNING CHARACTERISTICS. UNLESS |
| | OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, MCM SHALL HAVE A FLAME SPREAD |
| | INDEX OF 75 OR LESS AND A SMOKE-DEVELOPED INDEX OF 450 |
| | OR LESS WHEN TESTED AS AN ASSEMBLY IN THE MAXIMUM |
| | THICKNESS INTENDED FOR USE IN ACCORDANCE WITH ASTM E |
| | 84. |
| | |
| | 4) THIS MAY OR MAY NO BE A VALID CODE SECTION DEPENDING |
| | ON BUILDING TYPE: |
| | 1407.10 TYPE I, II, III AND IV CONSTRUCTION. WHERE |

| | |
| | 5) 1407.10.2 THERMAL BARRIERS. MCM SHALL BE SEPARATED |
| | FROM THE INTERIOR OF A BUILDING BY AN APPROVED THERMAL |
| | BARRIER CONSISTING OF 0.5-INCH (12.7 MM) GYPSUM |
| | WALLBOARD OR EQUIVALENT THERMAL BARRIER MATERIAL THAT |
| | WILL LIMIT THE AVERAGE TEMPERATURE RISE OF THE |
| | UNEXPOSED SURFACE TO NOT MORE THAN 250??F (121??C) |
| | AFTER 15 MINUTES OF FIRE EXPOSURE IN ACCORDANCE WITH |
| | THE STANDARD TIME-TEMPERATURE CURVE OF ASTM E 119. THE |
| | THERMAL BARRIER SHALL BE INSTALLED IN SUCH A MANNER |
| | THAT IT WILL REMAIN IN PLACE FOR NOT LESS THAN 15 |
| | MINUTES BASED ON A TEST CONDUCTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH UL |
| | 1715. |
| | |
| | 1407.10.3 THERMAL BARRIER NOT REQUIRED. THE THERMAL |
| | BARRIER SPECIFIED FOR MCM IN SECTION 1407.10.2 IS NOT |
| | REQUIRED WHERE: |
| | |
| | 1. THE MCM SYSTEM IS SPECIFICALLY APPROVED BASED ON |
| | TESTS CONDUCTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH UL 1040 OR UL 1715. |
| | SUCH TESTING SHALL BE PERFORMED WITH THE MCM IN THE |
| | MAXIMUM THICKNESS INTENDED FOR USE. THE MCM SYSTEM |

| | OR LESS, THE AREA OF MCM SHALL NOT EXCEED 10 PERCENT OF |
| | THE EXTERIOR WALL SURFACE. |
| | |
| | 1407.11.1.2 FIRE SEPARATION DISTANCE GREATER THAN 5 |
| | FEET. WHERE THE FIRE SEPARATION DISTANCE IS GREATER |
| | THAN 5 FEET (1524 MM), THERE SHALL BE NO LIMIT ON THE |
| | AREA OF EXTERIOR WALL SURFACE COVERAGE USING MCM. |
| | |
| | 7) 1407.12 TYPE V CONSTRUCTION. MCM SHALL BE PERMITTED |
