b). Tt�e addidon of the decks create floor area, per definition Secdon 207. Based on the distance to propecty line requirements, this tloor area is required to be protected by twahour, firo-resistive exterior wall constcucdon. In essence, what is currendy shown is equivalent to unprotected openings within the ezterior wall. Table.5-A c). Similazly, tha decks and storage units on the west elevadon represent floor area that is required to be protected by ezterior walis and opening protecdon. 6. Projecdons beyond the ezterior wall shall comply with Section 705 and shall not eztend beyond a point one third the distance to the property line from an assumed vertical plane located where fice-resisdve protection of openings is first required due to location on property. Specifically,the projections beyond the exterior walls may be located no closer than 13'-4" to the respective property lines (provided the requirements in comment#Sb are satisfied). 7. Combustible projections located where openings are not permitted or where protection of openings is required shall be of one-hour fire-resistive or heavy-timber conswction confomung to Section 605.6. Details of the projections should be provided on the plans. Section 705 8. The sum of the area of openings in exterior walls required to be protected due to distance from property lines should not ezceed 50 petcent of the total area of the wall in each story. Due to the lazge amount of glazing shown, the East and West walls should have a typical floor level (2,3 or 4) analyzed and submitted to show compliance. Section 503.2.2 9. Pazapet walls are required on every ezterior wall less than 20' from the prope�ty line unless the walls will terminate at roofs of not less than two-hour fire-resisdve conswcdon, or roofs constructed enticely of noncombustible materials (note thut fire- retardant-treated lumber is not permitted). The effected walls should be shown on the plans as well as the construction of the pazapet in accordance with Secdon?09.4. 10. In fire-resistive exterior wall conswction, the fia-cesisdve radng shall be maintained for such walls passing through attic areas or other arcas containing concealed spaces per Section 709.3.1 The floor/ceiling assemblies should be shown a, having the twa hour fire-resistive conswcdon continue through that void space at the intereonnection between the walls and floors. Note that the TJI's shown within the floor cavity in Details 10 & 11/S-16 are not sufficient to maintain the fire-resistive constiuction requirements of the wall assembly. 11.The North and 5outh exterior walls are set back from the propecty lines incrementally. The following comments apply to those walls: 3
