Jason:
I happened to come across the steel building drawings for the auto repair shop on Friday and realized that I forgot to
return these drawings to you along with your building permit set of architectural + structural drawings.
I will leave these drawings up front with Brooke & Lindsay so that you can stop by and pick up at your convenience'
please attach these steel building drawings together with your approved plan set, because our building inspectors and
your special inspector for high-strength bolting and field welding will need to be able to reference these plans when they
are at the job site.
Sorry for the inconvenience!

IBC Table 616.5.pdf
Bruce
Sorry that it's taken me a couple of days to get back to you on fire ratings at doors into the exit stair at the Eastbank
Auto Repair Shop.
For your benefit, I have copied a few remarks from the building code report which was run when we originally
conducted our plan review for this project:
STAIRWAY ENCOSURE -o Openings into the exit enclosure are required to be l-hour fire assemblies - lBC, Table 616.5
¡ Openings into enclosure are limited to those necessary for exit access to the enclosure from normally occupied
spaces and for egress from the enclosure. (Sec. 1023.4)
¡ Doors shall be self-closing or automatic closing. (Sec. 716.5.9)
¡ Exit enclosure must discharge directly to the exterior of the building. (Sec. 1023.3 and L028.1)
Please refer to the attached PDF which shows lBC, Table 7L6.5 which indicates that doors located at the 1-hour rated
walls enclosing the interior stairway are required to have a 1-hour minimum fire assembly rating.
The upstairs exit door into this stairway does not need to be equipped with panic hardware, and it also doesn't need to
swing in the direction of egress because occupant load is minimal (7 persons).
Hope that this information is helpful to you
