Study Exterior Wall Elements Protection FBC-R Section 302.1 based on the current FBC 5th Edition, the 5th Edition Glitch Amendments (HB535 Sec.32,33 & 36), the base Code (IBC-R 2015) for the FBC-R 6th Edition and the proposed Florida Amendments to the 6th Edition (mods 6823,6822 & 6799).
Study how these regulations affect the construction of Zero Lot Line Buildings (where one wall is at the property line). Address the concern when a projection crosses the Lot Line, and without using the Fire Separation Distance #4, what would its fire separation distance be?
Study what compliant detailing is available to meet the one-hour fire resistance rating of the projections underside.
