| | BETWEEN BUILDING THAT WILL WORK FOR THE CONSTRUCTION |
| | TYPE AND OPENINGS OF THESE BUILDINGS AND THE NEW |
| | PROPOSED BUILDING. SEE THE 2017 FBC-B SECTION 503.1.2 |

| | 4) SHEET 003 SFSC STORAGE LIFE SAFETY SHEET SHOWS A 2 |
| | STORY BUILDING CLASSIFIED AS CONSTRUCTION TYPE V-B |
| | CONSTRUCTION, STORAGE OCCUPANCY. THE ISSUE WE SEE THAT |
| | THE 2 STORY BUILDING IS CONSIDERED AN ATRIUM. SEE THE |
| | DEFINITION OF ATRIUM IN THE 2017 THE FBC-B CHAPTER 2: |
| | ATRIUM. AN OPENING CONNECTING TWO OR MORE STORIES OTHER |

| | NOT PASS THROUGH MORE THAN ONE ADJACENT STORY. TABLE |
| | 1006.3.2(2) STORIES WITH ONE EXIT OR EXIT ACCESS TO ONE |

| | FEET. SECTION 404.9.3. EXIT ACCESS TRAVEL DISTANCE AT |
| | OTHER THAN THE LEVEL OF EXIT DISCHARGE. |
| | |
| | 4C) WHAT THE PLAN IS DEFICIENT IN IS STATING, NO |
| | STORAGE BENEATH THE OPEN STAIRWAY FROM THE 2ND STORY. |
