Previous Comment: Provide and show on the plans the required door maneuvering clearances at both sides of the doors at the stair enclosures per the requirements of ICC A117.1 Section 404.2.3 Still Required: The justification provided references 2024 IBC Section 1009.2.2; however, the submitted construction documents are being reviewed under the 2018 IBC, which does not contain this provision or equivalent language permitting the omission of door maneuvering clearances within stair enclosures under the conditions described. Per the currently adopted code, compliance with ICC A117.1 Section 404.2.3 is still required, and the required door maneuvering clearances must be clearly indicated on the plans at both sides of the stair enclosure doors. If you plan to utilize provisions from the 2024 IBC in lieu of the adopted 2018 IBC, a formal appeal/request for alternate materials and methods shall be submitted to the Building Official for review and approval. Approval of such an appeal must be obtained prior to acceptance of this design approach Sheet A7.12 1. Previous Comment: The plans indicate the use of combustible construction for the interior exit stairs. The bottom story of the proposed building is of Type I-A construction which only allows combustible materials in specification applications. Staircases are not one of the permitted applications. Please revise. [Ref. IBC 2018 Sec. 602] Still Required: The justification provided references 2021 IBC Section 510.2, Exception 4; however, the submitted construction documents are being reviewed under the 2018 IBC, which does not include this exception or equivalent provisions permitting combustible construction within interior exit stairways in Type I-A construction under the conditions described. Per the adopted code, 2018 IBC Section 602 requires Type I-A construction to be of noncombustible materials, and interior exit stairways are not identified as a permitted combustible application. If you intend to utilize provisions from the 2021 IBC in lieu of the adopted 2018 IBC, a formal appeal/request for alternate materials and methods shall be submitted to the Building Official for review and approval.
