See: Dwg. A001 To qualify as a basement, 50% or more of the ground surface adjacent to the under-floor space should be less than or equal to 6 feet from the top of the first story level. Note that the adjacent ground level must slope a minimum of 2% away from the building and that the height measurement is taken at 5 feet (perpendicular) from the building (see parking lot on eastem side of Building A). Based on the elevations and plans 40% more "berm" is required for each building in order to avoid the three-story designation. Resubmittals should include calculations, which substanNate basement classification. It should also be noted that the perimeter of the overhang (first Boor over the p2h!.^.y) of Building A should be used when determining be�rn coverage. Section 220.

A200, A300 d A301. In order to avoid opening protection and exterior wall fire-resistance, the covered carports should be separated from each building by a minimum of 8 feet. Sections 207 & 505.3 We have relocated hvo carports, which are now at least 8' from the buildfnps. See: Dwys.
