Maximum AHowable Height/Area (section 503-506) Section 504.2, Automatic sprinkler increase, states that for Group R buildings equipped throughout with an approved sprinkler system in accordance with Section 9038.1.2 (an NFPA r3R system) the maximum building height is increased by 20 feet and maximum number of stories is increased by i story but shall not exceed 4 stories and 6o ft. Section 506.3 does not allow an area increase for 13R systems. Type 5B construction allows a building up to 7,000 square feet per floor. The largest floor of this building is 2,057 square feet and complies with maximum areas. The total allowable building area is calculated using the formula in section 506.4.1. For buildings 3 stories or more above grade, multiply the allowable building area per story from 5o6a by 3. The calculation is: 7,000 sq ft per story x 3 = 2i,000 square feet maximum building area. We propose a maximum building size of 7,688 square feet and complies with maximum areas.

The roof will be insulated and air sealed. Any new replacement windows will have a maximum U value of 0.4 Any new entrance doors will have a maximum U value of o.8 Level 3 alterations are permitted without requiring the entire building to comply with the International Energy Conservation Code. Alterations (new construction) shall comply with the International Energy Conservation Code. A building that undergoes Level 3 alterations is required to meet a certain level of energy compliance. 6 of Code Review Thomas Douglas Architects Inc 74 Bridge Street, Northampton, MA 196 Pleasant St. Northampton, MA 413-585-0641 Any new element within the work area is required to meet the International Energy Conservation Code. Elements within the building that are not being affected do not heed to be evaluated and do not nee to comply with the energy provisions. Essentially the entire building is not required to meet the energy provisions; only a degree of possible improvement in the energy performance of the building is intended to be achieved by making the new elements meet the IECC. In certain cases where the reconfiguration of the space might have resulted in the creation of new spaces the newly created space should be evaluated as a whole for compliance with the energy provisions even though some of the element within the space might actually not have been altered. Likewise, in a case where an existing mechanical system is being extended to other areas or new ductwork is being installed to reconfigure and reroute the ducts to various spaces, it is only required to have the new elements meet the energy provisions and not the entire system. 8o6 Accessibility CMR 521 The work is within a private dwelling unit & thus does not need to be in compliance with CMR 521 • End of Document 7of7
