4 9 TH Edition MSBC Based on 2015 IBC July 2016 adoption date No 6 month grace period Need to apply for variance Many granted administratively (without hearing). Should be easy to obtain at first (e.g. August), more difficult to justify later (e.g. December). 4
5 307.4 Facilities Generating Combustible dust To determine occupancy classification (F or H) a technical report must be provided to the building official that provides all necessary information for a qualified decision as to the potential combustible dusts hazard (307.4, 2012 edition) 5
6 Combustible Dust Classification (E, F, G) Explosibility Screening Test Go / No go Classification Explosion Severity Test (Maximum Explosion Pressure, Kst) Minimum Ignition Energy (MIE) Test Dust Cloud Processing, coating, woodworking, manufacturing, atritors, compounding, mixing, etc. NFPA 70, Class II locations NFPA 654, NFPA 499 Detailed analysis that determines the entire code approach 6
7 308.4 Group I classification Group I 2 occupancy classification Six or more incapable of self preservation and receiving care on a 24 hour basis. Day surgery, oral surgery etc. not I 2 Group I Condition Condition 1, slower, self evacuation (long term, residential) Condition 2, assisted evacuation 7
8 IBC 2015 Commentary 8
9 Accessory Storage Spaces Storage rooms less than 100 sf shall be same occupancy classification as main building Aggregate area shall not exceed allowable area of 508.2: 10 percent of the floor area of the story (accessory) Tabular allowable area for nonsprinklered buildings 9
10 Accessory Storage Example 4 story sprinklered multifamily building (Group R 2) Type IIB Const Actual area 52,000 sf, Allowable area 48,000 sf 10 small storage rooms each of 80 sf (Group R 2) One large storage room 6,000 sf (Group?) Is total area of S less than allowable area for S (52,000 sf)? Yes Total area less than 5,200 sf? no 8 small rooms are Group R One large room is Group S 1 10
11 Accessory Storage Example 11
12 Accessory Storage Example Compliance approach options: Accessory Occupancy? Only small rooms Non Separated Mixed Occupancy? No Separated Mixed Occupancy (508.4)? Maybe See below Separate Buildings with Firewall? Yes Upgrade Construction Type? Yes Yes, if sum of ratios actual/allowable building area is less than 1 43,000/48, ,000/52,500 = = 0.99 Yes 12
13 Accessory Storage Spaces Example Question: Do these storage spaces need to be separated from the main building use with fire resistance rated construction? Answer: The large ones do, because we used a separated mixed use approach. 13
14 Accessory Storage Spaces Example Question: What about the 90 sf storage rooms? Answer: Maybe. Still may need to be separated if also classified as an incidental use 14
15 Incidental Uses Section 509 Ancillary functions associated with a given occupancy that generally pose a greater level of risk to that occupancy. Specifically defined in Table
16 Incidental Uses 16
17 Incidental Use Example University studio arts building (B), 4 stories, Type (IIB) construction with paint shop room (F 1 or S 1) in Basement Allowable height for B is 4 stories, S 1 or F 1 is only 3 stories Options to comply with building height requirements: Can use accessory area strategy only if < 10%, but still need 1 hour FRR and sprinklers per Table Use separated mixed occupancy strategy (1 hour FRR horizontal sep).
