TEST RETAKE TOMORROW- COACH PLEASE HELP! VIGNETTES 3.1

Postby carpar » Mon Jun 05, 2017 10:08 am

Hi Coach and Forum,

A review of my vignettes would be much appreciated!!!

Also:
3.1 asks for:
'The area of refuge shall be sized to accommodate one wheelchair space of 30 inches by 48 inches for each 200 occupants, or portion thereof, based on the stairway occupant load'.
The stairway occupant load is more than 200 which is why I included two area of refuges. This doesn't seem correct and is definitely not shown in the 3.1 solutions. Can you please clarify?

Is my ramp unnecessarily big... if so, why?

Thank you so much!

The occupant load is only 110.

It's more complicated than necessary. If you use a 44" ramp you can take it all the way to south wall.

Stair
Rails missing on lower level.

Ramp
Lose the between 4" landing and top landing/stair.
Egress narrows at base of stair.

Roof
Place clerestory in wall.
Make sure low ridge meets.

Thanks so much Coach!!!

Do you mean 'lose the space between 4" landing and top landing stair?"

Thank you!
