roof abo��e, should ix included in the allowable area calculations. The westem <br /> portion of the building(alley building)is therefore over allowable azea. Section 504. <br /> 2. The aggregate floor area of m�zzanmes v�ithin a room should be limited to one third <br /> of the floor area of the room in which they are located per Section 507. By my <br /> calculations, the following units are over area as shown (note that exterior walls and <br /> interior stairs were subtracted from tl.e equation): <br /> Unit type I-20 sq. ft. <br /> Unit type J - 12 sq. ft <br /> Unit rype L- 20 sq. ft <br /> Exterior Wall and Opening ProtecUon <br /> Type If1-1 Hour Construction <br /> 1. The exterior walls may be conswcte:d of fire-retardant-treated wood framing per <br /> Section 503.4.3 and Table 5-A. This n:quire:nent should be noted in all effected wall <br /> sections on Sheet A73. Note that the structural wood sheatt►ing will also be required <br /> to be t�re-rotazdant-treated wood and should be noted as such. For all commenu <br /> stated telow regazding exterior walls, fire-retardant-tceated wood �s ePP�Priately <br /> subsan;ted where noncombustible construcdon is indicated. <br /> 2. The doors to exterior decks within the units on the North and South walls within 20' <br /> of the property line should be shown as a 3/4 hour, self-closing fire assemblies per <br /> Section 713.6.1. Table 5-A <br /> 3. The glass block assemblies shown to be in use where opening protection is required <br /> based on distance ro property lines shall be qualified by test in accordance with UBC <br /> Standazd 7-4 and shall bG labeled for the requiied 3/4 hour fire-protecdon rating and <br /> installed in accordance with their lisdng. Glazing in fire window assemblies subject <br /> to human impact in hazardous locadons as indicated in Secdon 2406.4 shall comply <br /> with section 24063. DeGvls of assembly should be submitted. Section 713.9 <br /> 4. Most of the ezterior walls (to include court walls, alcove and deck walls) are bearing <br /> walls by the definition provided for in 3ection 224. Table 5-A requires these walls be . <br /> a minimum of two-hour N/C construction. Any ezterior walls shown with less than a <br /> two-hour fice-resistive rad�:g will be required to show that no more than 1001bllineal <br /> foot superimposed load is present. <br /> 5. Based on the definidon of floor area(Secdon 207)the following comments apply: <br /> a). ff the deck alcoves on the North and South sides of the building had no decks,the <br /> alcoves would be classified as cou�ts per Secdon 204. M assumed prope►ty line <br /> would be required to be placed for opening protection requirements per Secdon 5033. <br /> 2 <br />
