Bob-Roraback replied to Gawdzira's topic in Building Codes and Compliance
Absolutely, it is required, From the 2022 CRC R302.5.1 Opening Protection Openings from a private garage directly into a room used for sleeping purposes shall not be permitted. Other openings between the garage and residence shall be equipped with solid wood doors not less than 13/8 inches (35 mm) in thickness, solid or honeycomb-core steel doors not less than 13/8 inches (35 mm) thick, or 20-minute fire-rated doors. Doors shall be self latching and equipped with a self-closing or automatic closing device. -
Gas Cooktop- Make-Up Air Requirements & Design
Bob-Roraback replied to cajunland's topic in Building Codes and Compliance
From the IRC commentary regarding this, It is becoming more common for residential kitchens to resemble commercial kitchens, both aesthetically and functionally. As a result, much larger-capacity range hoods are being installed which aggravates the already existing problem of a lack of adequate makeup air for all exhaust systems in the dwelling. Homes typically suffer multiple ills because of indoor negative pressures caused by an imbalance of exhaust air to makeup air. The problem is that air is being removed from the dwelling faster than air can leak back into the building by infiltration through cracks, gaps and flaws in the thermal envelope/air barrier. The typical home relies solely on infiltration for makeup air, and homes are being built much more airtight than in the past. Compounding this issue is the trend for much larger exhaust fans. The resulting pressure imbalance problem is a very real safety concern. -
Roof Overhang Above Causing Gap in Soffit of Roof Below.
Bob-Roraback replied to DynamicDG's topic in General Q & A
I don't know why but when I change the structure depth of the offending roof to 7 1/4" it fixes the problem. I don't have time to look any deeper, but I thought this might be a clue for you. Bob -
Hi Alan, For the upper exterior walls in climate zone 5 yes. I would have to look in the code if the location for this detail is in another climate zone. The crawl space does not indicate that it is conditioned it shows that it has a vapor barrier only. Therefore, the floor insulation is required. Also, I did not notice that the I joists are not fire protected as is required by R302.1.3
