Ford 338 Sixth Street Atlantic Beach, Florida 32233 RE: Via Mare Condominiums, Ahern Street, Atlantic Beach, FL 32233 Mr. Ford: Upon review of your letter dated July 31, 2006, I ford your analysis to be invalid based upon the finding that the buildings were altered by more than fifty percent. The two story structures were demolished with the exception of two walls exceeding fifty percent of the integrity of the building and can't hardly be considered a "minor structural alteration" as you've stated per Section 3401.7.2.2 of the Florida Building Code. In addition, the tax roll values the building at $186,000. The value at which the permit was applied for and was issued upon is $180,000, which exceeds fifty percent of the value of the structure. The following criteria applies to the Via Mare Condominium project under the 2001 Florida Building Code and must be adhered to regardless if the percentage of alterations were more or less than fifty percent; 1) Section 3401.4 2001 of the Florida Building Code states " An existing building SHALL NOT be increased in height unless the entire building is altered to meet the requirements of this code for a new building of such increased height and building area" and would apply. 2) Section 903.7.6 2001 Group R2 -Residential Occupancy. " An approved automatic sprinkler system SHALL BE PROVIDED throughout Group R2 occupancies three or more stories" 3} Section 903.8 2001 Buildings three stories or more in height and Section 903.8.1 2001 "Any building which is three stories or more in height SHALL BE equipped with an approved automatic sprinkler system installed in accordance with 903.1. Be advised, the permit was issued under the current 2004 Florida Building Code, which is clearly defined in Section 903.2.7 Group R An automatic sprinkler system installed in accordance with Section 903.3 shall be provided throughou I buildings with a Group R fire area. The buildings must meet the conditions of the Code and be co cted accordingly. Mdkowski CBO Of Atlantic Beach Cc: File James Hanson Lacy Higgins John Davie DON C.

Atlantic Beach, Fl. 32233 Stan, I am supplying the sections of the codes as discussed in our meeting on July 24th. The following are the areas in question. • The adoption of the 2004 Florida Building Code (FBC) was accomplished after being pushed back three times. The final adoption date was Oct. 1, 2005. • Vesting interest to allow a builder or developer use of a design under the 2001 code is addressed in Chapter 553.73(5) and states "The initial adoption of, and any subsequent update or amendment to, the Florida Building Code by the commission is deemed adopted for use statewide without adoptions by local government. For a building permit for which an application is submitted prior ro the effective date of the Florida Building Code, the state minimum building code in effect in the permitting jurisdiction on the date of the application governs the permitted work for the life of the permit and any extension granted the permit." • The existing bui, lding may be rebuilt under the existing code if the value of the building does not exceed 50% of the value of the structure. The 2001 FBC Section 3401.2 states "Alterations, repairs, or rehabilitation work maybe made to any existing structure, building, electrical, gas, plumbing, electrical, mechanical or gas system without requiring the building, structure, plumbing, electrical or gas system t o comply with all of the requirements of the technical codes, provided that the alteration, repair or rehabilitation work conforms to the requirements of the technical codes for new construction. Section 3401.7.2.2 states "minor structural alterations, with the approval of the building official, maybe made of the same materials ans degree offire-resistivity of which the building or structure is constructed." Please contact me if you have any questions. I can be reached on my cell phone at 236- 2123. This is a part time project for me. I can return your call between 11:30 and 12:30. Thanks for your time.

Office MECH hours are Monday through Friday PLMG 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. • Florida Building Code, 2004 Complete Collection 903.6.2 NFPA 101, as regarding the requirements for fire protection sprinklers, is applicable to alt multiple-family residential buildings, whether designated as townhouses, condominiums, apartment houses, tenements, garden apartments or by any other name. The attomey general has determined that for the purpose of the fire protection sprinkler requirements in Section 553.895(2), Florida Statutes, townhouses that are three or more stories tall and consist of three or more units together are multiple-family dwellings. Therefore, these types of townhouses are not exempt from being considered for the requirements to provide fire protection sprinklers (even if there are any other definitions that define a townhouse as a single-family residence). When determining whether townhouses require fire protection sprinkler systems, the building official must consider in parallel:. (a) the attomey general's opinion defining the statutory language for townhouses; (b) the building code requirements, including all life-safety chapters, that provide additional determining criteria, such as construction types, fire-resistance, fire protection systems and egress; and (c) the NFPA 101 egress and protection determining criteria. The more restrictive criteria are then applied. OZ\ ~° ~ , ~bo ~--- L~~ ~ S~ ~ ~~. ~~ International Code Counal, Inc. ~ SECTION 903 n ~© ~ ~ ~L ~ SPRINKLERS c~' §903.3 Material.

The Attorney General has determined that for the purpose of the fire protection sprinkler require- ments in Section 553.895(2), Florida Statutes, townhous- es that are three or more stories tall and consist of three or more units together are multiple-family dwellings. Therefore, these types of townhouses are not exempt from being considered for the requirements to provide fire pro- tection sprinklers (even if there are any other definitions that define townhouse as single-family residences). When determining whether townhouses require fire protection sprinkler systems, the building official must consider in parallel: (a) The Attorney General's opinion defining the statutory language for townhouses; and (b) The Building Code requirements, including all life-safety chapters, that provide additional determining criteria, such as construc- tion types, firea-esistance, fire protection systems and egress; and (c) The NFPA 101 egress and protection deter- mining criteria. The more restrictive criteria are then applied. 903.9 Supervision 903.9.1 Where au automatic sprinkler system is provided either as a requirement or as an alternate to another requirement of this code, the system shall be supervised by an approved central, proprietary, auxiliary, or remote station system in accordance with NFPA 72.

Repair FAQ's A:Portland cement-based plaster, commonly called stucco, has long been and continues to be a popular choice for finishes on buildings. It allows for a wide Technical expression of aesthetics, is acast-effective finish, is durable in all types of Support dimates (espedaliy wet ones), and offers fire resistance. Fire resistance is Stay Informed typically daSSifled by a fire rating, but what kind of fire rating does piaster provide? Fnd a Cement Supplier Things that influence the fire rating of a piaster system include the type of material used for the support member, the size of the support member, the presence/absence and type of exterior sheathing, the aggregate in the plaster mix, the presence/absence of insulation, presence/absence of interior wail finishing materials (gypsum wal{board, etc.) and the thidmess of the section. The type of member-wall, partition, ceiling, or other, and member classification (load bearing-LB or non-load bearing-NLB)--also influences the rating. ~~ ~" In 1991, the Foundation of the Wall and Ceiling Industry published a reference ~ ' guide on portland cement-based plaster/stucco systems used for fire protection. t Designers, specifiers, building code offldals, contractors, and the general public ~.:~ are the intended audience. The information contained therein is °not intended as design or instatiation criierra," but can help people determine how to assess their assemblies using the referenced publications, fire test reports, industry standards, and codes. For example, a typical residential application might be a 3-coat system of piaster over 2x4 wood studs using metal lath attached to Lhe studs, either with or without a layer of sheathing, like plywood. On the interior side would be a sayer of gypsum board. The detail for a system made with these components is assigned a 1-hour fire rating based on 1988 Uniform Building Code information. Contact information The Foundation of the Watt and Ceiling Industry Is affiliated with the Association of the Wall and Ceiling Industry. FWCI's mission is to be an active, unbiased source of information and education to support the waD and ceiling industry. FWCI, is located at 803 W.
