Requests for Declaratory Statement on Rule 9B-72
This is an amendment to DCA19-DEC-002
(Requests for Declaratory Statement on Rule 9B-72)
We Manufacture
a proprietary structural system that integrates a light gauge steel stud frame
assembly with an EPS insulation core. The structural supports
are recessed in the polystyrene on both the interior and the exterior, and is
provided by steel framing members placed 24" on center and screw connected
to steel angles at both top and bottom of the panels. Our Pre-Insulated Steel
Framing system(s) are used in new construction projects for both residential
& commercial buildings. The design of our building systems and components
are governed by IBC Section 2210.
We are requesting a Declaratory
Statement on Rule 9B-72 Florida Product Approval and it’s applicability to our
systems under the following uses:
1. When we design and engineer a system for
a custom home or commercial building for a client, and the system is designed
consistent with IBC Section 2210. The
purpose and use of our system in this capacity would constitute an exception to
the Florida Product Approval rules and requirements, as stated in 9B-72.030
exceptions to the rule. Is this correct? If not, please explain why?
2. When we design and engineer a system for
the roof of a custom home or commercial building for a client, and the system
is designed consistent with IBC Section 2210.
The purpose and use of our system in this capacity would constitute an
exception to the Florida Product Approval rules and requirements, as stated in
9B-72.030 exceptions to the rule. Is this correct? If not, please explain why?
3. If we design a wall section that is not
sold as a part of a pre-engineered custom whole building, but rather intended
for use in a custom design or addition, and it is manufactured, designed, &
installed consistent with IBC Section 2210, then the purpose and use of our
system in this capacity would constitute an exception to the Florida Product
Approval rules and requirements, as stated in 9B-72.030 exceptions to the rule.
Is this correct? If not please explain why?
4. If we design a roof section that is not
sold as a part of a pre-engineered custom whole building, but rather intended
for use in a custom design or addition, and it is manufactured, designed, &
installed consistent with IBC Section 2210, then the purpose and use of our
system in this capacity would constitute an exception to the Rule 9B-72 Florida
Product Approval rules and requirements, as stated in 9B-72.030 exceptions to
the rule. Is this correct? If not please explain why?
Although rule 9B-72.005 does contain
categories that are applicable to our system(s), rule
9B-72.030 exceptions also contains rules that also are applicable to our
system(s). Therefore, we are requesting a declaratory Statement from the board
regarding the same. Photo’s of our system are attached
hereto.
Sincerely,
Derek Runion
