Jessop,Jr. Architect Re: 20 Forsythe Road, South Yarmouth Review of Chapter 34 Narrative By Howe Engineers 141 Longwater Circle, Suite 110 Norwell, MA 20261 Compiled by Jeremy A. Mason, P.E. Dear Mr. Sears, I have been asked to review the documentation and Summary and Conclusions on the report titled "Chapter 34 Narrative by Howe Engineers. Submitted August 11, 2022. I have reviewed each section and/or Performance Analysis and Summary of the report as follows: Project Description— (I concur) Applicable Codes and Requirement—(I concur) Chapter 34 Scoping Requirements—(1 concur and agree with the recommendation) 1401.2 Performance Compliance Methods Chapter 14 and Applicability Summary—The first floor and second floor are separated by a 2-hour (construction) separation and the existing walls separating the Group B office space and the proposed R-2 apartment will be upgraded to be 2-hour fire resistance rated including new 90 minute self-closing doors. As such, each occupancy will be evaluated separately in the report. I agree with this Summary and division of Occupancies for this report. Evaluation (1401.5) 1401.5.1 - Fire Safety-Structure, Detection,Alarm, Sprinklers and Suppression. 1401.5.2- Means of egress-Configuration, characteristics, access and support features. 1401.5.3 -General safety- Life safety Code 101, for fire safety and means of egress parameters. This report provides the proposed evaluation in accordance with the three (3) parameters specified above and summarized elsewhere. I concur with this approach. page 1 Evaluation Process— Building height and number of stories (per occupancy) 1401.6.1 Height formula (AH)-(EBH) x CF Height Value in feet = 12.5 Height Value in stories (AS)-(EBS) x CF Table page 7 shows tabulated results Equation 14-2 returns 0 points for all three occupancies as the existing building is as tall as is allowed in the IEBC based on the number of stories. I concur with the analysis and findings. Page 2 Chapter 34 Review by Performance 1401.6.2 Building Area Under Section 1401.6.2.2 5/5 506 of the IBC and the formula in section 1401.6.2.1 are used to determine the allowable area of the building. 1401.6.2.1 Allowable area formula Equation 14-3 Aa= At+ (NS x If) Where: Aa = Allowable building area per story in square feet. At =Tabular allowable area factor (NS, S1, S13R, or SM) per Table 506.2 of the IBC. NS = Non sprinklered building If=Area factor increase for frontage per Section 506.3 of the IBC 1401.6.2.2 Area formula (Equation 14.4) Allowable Area x Actual Area + Actual Area, Area Value = 1200 squate feet Allowable Area; Allowable Area, Where: =Value for an individual separated occupancy on a floor. n = Number of separated occupancies per floor. See Table on page 8 of the report Summary of Scores: Mercantile scores 8.96 points Business scores 9.94 points Residential scores 7.73 points I concur and support this analysis. page 2 Page 3 Chapter 34 Review by Performance 1401.6.3 Compartmentation Evaluate compartments (units) per Sections 1401.6.3.1 and 1401.6.3.2 and exclusive of elements under Sections 1401.6.4 and 1401.6.5. Conforming compartments are the net area and do not include shafts, chases, stairways, walls or columns. See Table 1401.6.3 Compartmentation Values on page 9 As noted in Section 1401.6.2, none of the spaces exceed 2,500 square feet. Thus, all three occupancies fall under category e (size). Mercantile and Residential score 22 points,while business scores 20 points. I concur with this analysis. 1401.6.4 Tenant and dwelling unit separations See table 1401.6.4 Separation Values As noted (in the table) the building is currently separated with a 2-hour rated ceiling/floor and will be altered to have 2-hour rated walls separating Business and Residential occupancies. As such, all three occupancies fall under category e, scoring 4 points each. 1 concur with the analysis and findings. 1401.6.5 Corridor Walls As there are no corridors, this Section does not apply and there are no points. Page 4 Chapter 34 Review by Performance 1401.6.6 Vertical Openings This Section evaluates fire resistance of interior exit stairways, ramps, hoistways, escalators and other shaft enclosures. The front stairs are currently partially rated at 1.-hour and the rear stairs are partially rated (to 1-hour) except they are open to the lunchroom area. Section 1401.6.6 notes that if unenclosed openings comply with Section 713,then a value of two (2) is assigned. Also, Section 712 of the IBC does allow stairs to be open if connecting 2 floors only and not open to corridors in Group R occupancies. Further,the stairs must be separated from other occupancies. Thus, if the basement door is replaced with a 60 minute door,then the (front) stairs meet the provisions contained in Section 712.1.9 and achieve a score of 2. page 3 In table 1401.6.6(1) the existing construction of 5/8"GWBX over%"GWB is 1 to less than 2 hours with a value at 1. The addition of intumescent paint raises the value to 2 hrs.for all existing stair and occupancy separation walls. 1401.6.7 HVAC Systems Evaluate the ability of the HVAC system to resist the movement and smoke of a fire beyond the point of origin. This building has no ductwork that connects between multiple stories. Therefore: it falls under category e, scoring all three occupancies 5 points each. 1 concur with this evaluation. 1401.6.8 Automatic Fire Detection Evaluate the smoke detection capability based on the location and operation of automatic fire detectors per Section 907 of the IBC and the IMC. Per Table 1401.6.8 Automatic Fire Detection Values and 1401.6.8.1 Categories. Smoke detectors are installed throughout the building, and as such it classifies as category e. The Mercantile and Residential spaces score 6 points, while Business scores 8 points. I agree with the analysis and conclusion. Page 5 Chapter 34 Review by Performance 1401.6.9 Fire Alarm Systems Evaluate the capability of the fire alarm system in accordance with Section 907 of the IBC and Section 1401.6.9.1. A fire alarm system in accordance with Section 907 of the IBC is provided classifying all three occupancies as category c. The Business and Residential spaces score 0 points while Mercantile scores 10 points. I concur with the analysis and conclusion. page 4 1401.6.10 Smoke Control Evaluate the ability of a natural or mechanical venting, exhaust or pressurization system to control the movement of smoke from a fire. Under occupancy and category (1406.10.1). No smoke control system is provided in the building. Therefore,the occupancies fall under category A scoring 0 points for all three occupancies. I concur with this analysis. 1401.6.11 Means of egress capacity and number Evaluate the means of egress capacity and the number of exits available to the building occupants. Existing (internal) fire escapes shall be accepted as s component in the means of egress when conforming to Section 405. See Table 1401.6.11 and 1401.6.11.1 Categories. Minimum capacity requirements for means of egress compliance is met. The Business and Residential occupancies fall under category b scoring 0 points. Mercantile falls under category d scoring 2 points. I concur with this summary and conclusion. 1401.6.12 Dead ends There are no dead ends (of corridors) in this building. I concur with this conclusion. Page 6 Chapter 34 Review by Performance 1401.6.13 Maximum exit access travel distance to an exit Evaluate the length of exit access travel to an approved exit. The calculated maximum is 80'for mercantile, 90'for business and 70'for residential. As such, Mercantile scores 13.5 points, Business scores 11 points and Residential is 12 points. I concur with this analysis and summarization. page 5 1401.6.14 Elevator control and 1401.6.14.1 Categories The building is not provided with an elevator, causing the building to meet category a as defined. As there is less than 25 feet of travel above or below the primary level, all occupancies score negative two (-2). I concur with the analysis and the conclusion. 1401.6.15 Means of egress emergency lighting and 1401.6.15.1 Categories The building is provided with means of egress lighting and exit signs in accordance with Section 2702 of the IBC and as such is category 6. Two or more exits from the building scoring all occupancies zero points. I concur with the analysis and the conclusions. 1401.6.16 Mixed occupancies and 1401.6.16.1 Categories The building is currently separated by a 2-hour floor/ceiling and 1-hour rated walls on the first and second floor which will be altered to 2-hour rating during the alteration. As such all three occupancies are category b scoring 0 zero points. I concur with the analysis and the conclusion. Page 7 Chapter 34 Review by Performance 1401.6.17 Automatic sprinklers and 1401.6.17.]. Categories Evaluate the ability to suppress a fire based upon the installation of an automatic sprinkler system. As stated previously the building is not provided with a sprinkler system. The mercantile and business occupancies do not require one, but the new residential space would require a system using the prescriptive method in the code. Therefore, the mercantile and business occupancies fall into category while the residential is category a. The business and residential space score (-6) negative six points and the mercantile scores negative (-3) negative three points. I concur with the analysis and findings. 1401.6.18 Standpipes and 1401.6.18.1 Categories Evaluate the ability to initiate attack on a fire by a supply of water available through the installation of standpipes per Section 905 of the IBC. page 6 As noted, the building has no standpipes, landing it in category d for the Residential space and category b for the Mercantile and Business spaces. All three (3) spaces score N/A or an equivalent 0 points as category d and b were previously used in Section 1401.6.17. I concur with the analysis and the conclusion. 1401.6.19 Incidental uses The building contains no incidental uses and as such scores 0 points for all three occupancies. I concur with this conclusion. 1401.6.20 Smoke compartments Evaluate the smoke compartmentation for compliance with Section 407.5 of the IBC. The building contains no smoke compartments, as such it falls under Category c which scores 0 points for all occupancies. I concur with this conclusion. Page 8 Chapter 34 Review by Performance 1401.6.20 Patient ability, concentration, smoke compartments location and ratio to attendant and 1401.6.21.1 Categories There are no 1-2 occupancies, so all Sections of 1401.6.21 score N/A or and equivalent zero (0). 1401.7 Building score and Evaluation Building score See Appendix A—C for scores for the mercantile, business and residential occupancies. I concur with this conclusion. 1401.8 Safety scores See Table 1401.8 Mandatory Safety Scores for Fire Safety, Means of Egress and General Safety. 1401.9 Evaluation of building safety The mandatory safety score in Table 1401.8 shal be subtracted from the building score in Table 1401.7 for each category. Where the final score for any category EQUALS zero or more, the building is in compliance with the requirements of this section for that category. Where the final score for any page 7 category is LESS than zero, the building is NOT in compliance with the requirements of this section. (See pages 28-29) The building is in compliance 1 concur with this conclusion. 1401.9.1 Mixed Occupancies For mixed occupancies the following provisions shall apply: a) Where the separation between mixed occupancies does not qualify for any category indicated in Section 1401.6.16, the mandatory safety scores for the occupancy with the lowest general safety score in Table 1401.8 shall be utilized (see Section 1401.6). b) Where the separation between mixed occupancies qualifies for any category indicated in Section 1401.6.16 the mandatory safety scores for each occupancy shall be placed against the evaluation scores for the appropriate occupancy See Tables on page 29 Page 9 Chapter 34 Review by Performance Summary and Conclusions The building passes the performance compliance method, provided that it is considered a separated mixed use occupancy with 2-hour separation required between the Residential and Business occupancies of the second floor, and the door to the basement is replaced with a 1-hour rated self-closing door. The existing separation at the second floor will be upgraded to provide a 2-hour rating with 90 minute rated self-closing doors. In addition, the rear stair hall will be extended to the apartment wall constructed a 2-hour wall of 2x4 wood studs with 2 layers of 5/8" GMBX each side and filled with 3 %2' fiberglass batts and including a self-closing 90 minute rated door and frame. See Appendix A, B, and C on pages 30-32. I concur with the summary and conclusions with exceptions. The existing fire partitions are original 1 hour construction of 2 x 4 wood studs, '4"GWB both sides, and 3%"fiberglass batts overlaid with a layer of 5/8"GWBX to approach a 2 hour rating. To increase the construction to an actual 2 hour plus value, on application of FlameOff fire barrier paint will be applied according to the manufacturer's specifications for an additional 1 hour.

Re: Memo on August 15, 2022 @ 3;30pm The mixed use of the second floor layout shows the front stair enclosure accessible from both office and residence directly, making 2 hour fire assembly mandatory. All new walls are to be 2 layers of 5 " GWBX on 2x4 wood studs both sides and insulated. All existing stair walls have been increased in fire rating from 1 hour by addition of one layer of%" GWBX, which are rated just short of the required points to be classified as full 2 hours rating. These walls will be improved and qualified as 2 hours by the application of a 30 mil DFT(dry film thickness) coating of intumescent paint with "Class A" flame spread rating. All doors accessing exit stairs (first and second floor) are to be 90 minute design and labeled. The door to the basement is to be 90 minute rated and labeled. All rated doors are to be self closing. My preference for 2 hour walls around the "lunch room" is the Yellow (office) designated segment as shown on the second floor plan. Present and future occupancy will benefit from this construction. Sincerely, George A. Jessop, r AIA Emeritus page 10 From:Jeremy Mason<jmason@howeengineers.com> Sent: Monday,August 15,2022 3:30 PM To: Darren McGinn CPA<darren@drmcpas.com> Subject: RE:See attached Hi Darren, Comments as follows. The stairs only need 60-minute doors assuming they only enclose the stairs and do not form the 2-hour separations. The 2 doors to the bike storage shop and the door to the bathroom for the stair at the bottom of the plan need to be 60-minute rated as well. The stair at the top of the plan that provide access to the Bike shop,also require a 60-minute door. If you want to use 90 minute doors,those exceed the 60-minute requirement and are fine. Second Floor-The stair at the top of the page needs to be enclosed as shown in green roughly in the image below. It needs to be separated from the%2 bath and lunch room and will need a SO-minute door as well. The 2-hour separation only needs to occur in one location. One option would be what is shown in Blue and another in what is shown in Yellow. Either one is a viable option. I assume yellow might be easiest and least amount of wall.
