January 2022 Revised June 15, 2022 JUN 151011 CODE REVIEW INFORMATION BUILDING DEPARTMENT PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project consists of renovations to an existing elementary school building to accommodate middle and high school classrooms for the Cape Cod Collaborative located at 115 Route 28, Yarmouth, Massachusetts. The building was partially renovated in 2014 to accommodate classrooms for Bridgewater State University but is no longer used for that purpose. Therefore, the building is considered a Group E (Educational) occupancy. The existing building is two stories with the First Floor partially below grade such that the grade is approximately midway between the first and second floors. Consequently, egress from each floor to the exit discharge requires travel wither up or down via stairs. The building area is 14,600 s.f. per floor. The exterior walls of the building are concrete, brick masonry veneer and wood structure. The floors, beams and columns are a mix of noncombustible and combustible construction. Since the exterior walls have combustible materials, the construction type is most consistent with Type VB materials. As a part of the renovations, the building will be fully sprinklered utilizing the fire service that was installed during the 2014 renovations. The existing fire alarm system will be upgraded to accommodate the new sprinkler system and other additional devices that will be added during the renovations. This Code Review Information pertains only to the architectural elements of the project and does not address the requirements for the plumbing, mechanical, electrical and fire protection portions of the work. APPLICABLE CODES Code Type Applicable Code Building Massachusetts State Building Code (780 CMR) 9th Edition - based on the 2015 International Building Code with Massachusetts amendments. Existing Building Code of Massachusetts (780 CMR 34.00) based on the 2015 International Existing Building Code with Massachusetts amendments. Accessibility 521 CMR — Massachusetts Architectural Access Board (MAAB) Regulations Plumbing 248 CMR — Massachusetts Fuel Gas and Plumbing Code Required number of fixtures only Energy 2018 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) with Massachusetts amendments per 780 CMR 13.00 Rowse Architects 2 Hampshire Street, Suite 106,Foxboro, Massachusetts Page 1 of 6 Tel: 774-215-0290 CAPE COD COLLABORATIVE RENOVATIONS Revised June 15, 2022 1175 Route 28, Yarmouth, Massachusetts MASSACHUSETTS IEBC 780 CMR 34.00 indicates that the International Existing Building Code 2015 with Massachusetts amendments shall be used for existing buildings. Compliance with the MA IEBC is achieved utilizing the Work Area Compliance Method per Section 301.1.2 which indicates that the work shall comply with the applicable requirements of Chapters 5 — 13. The renovations are classified as Level 1 and Level 2 Alterations per Section 503 and 504 respectively. NOTE: As noted above, renovations in a portion of the building were made in 2014 for Bridgewater State University. Those renovations were made based upon a change in occupancy from E (Educational) to B (Business) for post secondary education. The current renovations return the entire building to an Educational occupancy. Per discussions with the local building official, it was agreed that the renovations in the Bridgewater State University area do not need to be considered a change in occupancy from Business back to Educational. Level 1 Alterations are defined as "...the removal and replacement or the covering of existing materials, elements, equipment, or fixtures using new materials, elements, equipment, or fixtures that serve the same purpose." Level 1 Alterations shall comply with the requirements of Chapter 7. The general description of the Level 1 Alterations are: New floor finishes. New wall finishes. New ceilings. Door hardware replacement at selected doors. Level 2 Alterations are defined as "...the reconfiguration of space, the addition or elimination of any door or window, the reconfiguration or extension of any system, or the installation of any additional equipment." Level 2 Alterations shall comply with the requirements of Chapters 7 & 8. Not all Level 2 Alterations require configuration of space. Chapter 2 indicates that Work Area is defined as reconfigured spaces. Therefore, installation of the sprinkler system, mechanical and electrical work, while extensive, are not utilized to determine the Work Areas since they do not reconfigure space. This is supported by IEBC Commentary for the Work Area definition. Thus only the reconfigured spaces are designated as Work Areas as shown on the Work Area Plans on Drawing G1.01. As shown on those plans, the Work Areas of reconfigured spaces are 20% of the total building area and do not trigger the requirements of Section 505 for Level 3 Alterations since they area less than 50% of the total building area. The general description of the Level 2 Alterations are: LEVEL 2 ALTERATIONS WITHOUT RECONFIGURATION Removal of existing plaster ceilings to allow for installation of new sprinkler system. Installation of new sprinkler system from the existing fire service installed in 2013. Replacement of the existing unit ventilators in the classrooms. Mechanical equipment and distribution upgrades in other areas of the building.

Installation of new electrical distribution and data systems throughout the building. New lighting throughout the building Upgrades to the existing fire alarm system. Cutting and patching of holes in walls and floors to accommodate the above work. LEVEL 2 ALTERATIONS WITH RECONFIGURATION See First Floor Work Area Plan. See Second Floor Work Plan. CHAPTER 7 REQUIREMENTS 702.1 & 702.2 Finishes — new wall, ceiling and floor finishes shall comply with 780 CMR Chapter 8. See the discussion below for Section 803.4 for additional information. 702.6 Materials and Methods — all new work shall comply with the requirements for new construction per 780 CMR, 780 CMR- 13.00 and other referenced standards. 705.1 Accessibility — a facility that is altered shall comply with Sections 705.1.1 through 705.1.14 and 780 CMR Chapter 11 unless it is technically infeasible. In turn, 780 CMR Chapter 11 indicates that accessibility shall be in accordance with 521 CMR Massachusetts Architectural Access Board Regulations. Per 521 CMR 3.3.2, the entire building is required to be accessible per the requirements of 521 CMR since the value of the alterations exceeds 30% of the assessed value of the building. Via the existing building conditions and the work performed as a part of this project, the building will be accessible as outlined below. Existing Building 1. The existing entrance at Stair A is at grade and enters the building at midpoint between floors. Access to the First and Second Floors is provided via a lift installed in the 2014 renovations. 2. At the south end of the building there is an exterior ramp that extends from grade to the First Floor. The ramp connects to a vestibule that contains an elevator that provides access to the Second Floor. The elevator is operational. 3. The existing Second Floor toilet rooms installed in the 2014 renovations are accessible. 4. The existing single use toilet rooms at the First Floor installed in the 2014 renovations are accessible. Renovations 1. The new toilet room for the Nurse's office at the Second Floor is designed to be accessible. 2. All new toilet rooms at the First Floor are designed to be accessible. 3. New drinking fountains shall be accessible. 4. Several existing doors do not provide adequate side clearances for push/pull operation due to structural conditions. These doors will receive automatic door openers. 5. New signage with raised braille will be installed throughout the building.

CHAPTER 8 REQUIREMENTS 801.3 Compliance — all new construction shall comply with the requirements of 780 CMR for new construction. 803.2.1 Existing Vertical Openings — existing vertical openings connecting 2 or more floors shall be enclosed in 1 hour rated assemblies with opening protectives. Section 803.2.1 Exception 6 indicates that the enclosure for vertical openings not exceeding three stories in Group E (Educational) are not required when the building is fully sprinklered. Stair A is unenclosed and open to the corridor at both the First and Second Floors. Stairs B, C & D are enclosed by walls assumed to provide a minimum 1 hour rating. Since the enclosures are not required to be rated, opening protectives are not required. 803.4 Interior Finish — the interior finish of walls and ceilings in exits and corridors shall comply with 780 CMR Chapter 8. Per 780 CMR Table 803.11 (with sprinklers): Exits - wall and ceiling finishes shall be Class B (Flame Spread 26-75; Smoke Developed less than 450). Corridors - wall and ceiling finishes shall be Class C (Flame Spread 76-200; Smoke Developed less than 450). Existing finishes that do not comply with the above are permitted to remain when treated with approved fire retardant coatings to achieve the rating. Per 780 CMR 804.4.2, floor finishes in sprinklered buildings for Group E shall comply with DOC FF-1 Pill Test. 804.1.1 Corridor Ratings — when the building is fully sprinklered, the corridor rating can be reduced to 0 hour for Group E per 780 CMR Table 1020.1. 805.3.1 Minimum Number of Exits — every story shall have the required number of exits based on the calculated occupant load but not less than two per 780 CMR Chapter 10. See the Occupant Load/Egress Plans on Drawing G1.01 for the occupant load calculations and egress capacity. First Floor — occupant load = 690 — 3 exits required per 780 CMR Table 1006.3.1. As shown on the Occupant Load/Egress Plan, 4 exits are provided via Stair A, Stair C, Exit 8 and Exit 9 with a capacity of 710. Exit 7 provides a second means of egress to the spaces to the north side of Stair C. Second Floor — occupant load = 386 — 2 exits required per 780 CMR Table 1006.3.1. As shown on the Occupant Load/Egress Plan, 5 exits are provided via Stair A (Exit 1), Stair B (Exit 2), Stair C (Exit 3), Stair D (Exit 4) and Exit 5 with a capacity of 1,093. Exit 6 provides an additional means of egress from High School 222 & 223. Rowse Architects 2 Hampshire Street, Suite 106,Foxboro,Massachusetts Page 4 of 6 Tel: 774-215-0290 CAPE COD COLLABORATIVE RENOVATIONS Revised June 15, 2022 1 175 Route 28,Yarmouth,Massachusetts 805.4.2 Door Swing — in the Work Area and the path of egress from the Work Area to the exit discharge, all egress doors serving an occupant load greater than 50 shall swing in the direction of travel. 805.4.3 Door Closing — in any Work Area, doors opening into an exit stair shall be self-closing. 805.5 Exception - Openings in Corridor Walls — corridor openings are not required to rated when permitted by 780 CMR. As noted above at Section 804.1.1, a corridor is not required and thus the openings are not required to be rated. 805.6 Exception 3 - Dead End Corridors — dead end corridors are permitted to be 70' when the building is fully sprinklered. 805.9 & 805.9.1 Handrails — handrails from the Work Area to and including the level of exit discharge shall comply. Every required exit stair with more than 3 risers shall have handrails on at least one side. Exiting handrails that are in danger of collapsing shall be replaced with a handrail on at least one side. Per Section 805.9.2, all handrails (new and existing) shall be in accordance with 780 CMR Section 1014. The existing stairs have handrails on both sides and will be made to comply. This includes the exterior stairs as they are part of the exit discharge. 805.11 & 805.11.1 Guards - guards from the Work Area to and including the level of exit discharge shall comply. Every open portion of a stair, landing or balcony more than 30" above floor or grade below shall have guards. Exiting guards that are in danger of collapsing shall be provided with new guards. Per Section 805.11.2, all guards (new and existing) shall be in accordance with 780 CMR Section 1015. This includes the exterior stairs as they are part of the exit discharge. 806.2 Accessibility — accessibility shall comply with the requirements of Section 705. 810.1 Minimum Plumbing Fixtures — when the occupant load of a story is increased by more than 20%, plumbing fixtures for the story shall be provided in accordance with 248 CMR. The renovations do not materially alter the character of use of the individual rooms. It is assumed that the occupant load after renovations is essentially the same as the occupant load prior to the renovations. Therefore, the requirements of Section 810.1 would not apply. Typically the number of toilet fixtures are based on the calculated occupant load for egress which creates unrealistic fixture counts. Since the program for this program is specialized, the actual occupant load is extremely low with 50 students and 30 staff. The capacity of the existing toilet fixtures is indicated below. Second Floor — new accessible male and female toilet rooms were created in the 2014 renovations. Based on 248 CMR Table 1 for Secondary Educational, those rooms have a capacity as follows: Rowse Architects 2 Hampshire Street, Suite 106,Foxboro,Massachusetts Page 5 of 6 Tel: 774-215-0290 CAPE COD COLLABORATIVE RENOVATIONS Revised June 15, 2022 1175 Route 28, Yarmouth,Massachusetts Fixture Type Number Rate Total Capacity Female Water Closets 4 1 per 30 120 Lavatories 3 1 per 90 270 Male Water Closets 2 1 per 90 180 Urinals 2 1 per 90 180 Lavatories 3 1 per 90 270 First Floor — there are two non-accessible single use gender neutral toilet rooms and one accessible single use gender neutral toilet room. While the Second Floor toilet rooms provide adequate capacity for the actual student occupant load of 50, having to travel there from the First Floor is undesirable operationally. Therefore, it is proposed that one existing non- accessible single use gender neutral toilet room and the existing accessible single user gender neutral toilet room be dedicated for students. This provides a capacity of 30 for females and 90 for males. This appears to be permitted per 248 CMR 10.10(18)(m)3 and 10.10(18)(r). Per 248 CMR 10.10(18)(h)4, separate toilet facilities shall be provided for teachers and staff. Based on 30 staff members (15 female/15 male) and 248 CMR 10.10(18) Table 1, 1 water closet and 1 lavatory would be required for each gender. Therefore it is proposed that one existing non-accessible gender neutral toilet room and a new accessible single use gender neutral toilet room be dedicated for staff. This appears to be permitted by 248 CMR 10.10(18)(i)3 and 10.10(18)(m) & (r). Per 248 CMR 10.10(18)(h)5, separate toilet facilities are required for kitchen staff. A new accessible single use gender neutral toilet will be provided in the Kitchen area. 811.1 Energy Conservation - there are no Level 2 Alterations that affect the exterior envelope. Therefore, the requirements of 780 CMR 13.00 are not applicable.

The building code narrative references 521CMR section 3.3.1 Exception b and assumes the work to be below the 30%threshold. The value of the work shown on the application excluding electrical, mechanical, plumbing, and fire protection is$2,561,409.00 which is well over the 30%. Exception b states "alteration work which is limited solely to electrical, mechanical, or plumbing systems; to abatement of hazardous materials;or retrofit of automatic sprinklers and does not involve the alteration of any elements or spaces required to be accessible under 521CMR". It is our determination that except for hazardous material abatement none of the other work qualifies as exempted work. If it was to qualify as exempted work it exceeds the amount of$500,000 allowed for exempted work under the exception. This project must comply with 521CMR section 3.3.2 which requires that the entire building be brought into compliance. Please update the plans and submit the items listed above for review.

The building was partially renovated in 2014 to accommodate classrooms for Bridgewater State University but is no longer used for that purpose. Therefore, the building is considered a Group E (Educational) occupancy. The existing building is two stories with the First Floor partially below grade such that the grade is approximately midway between the first and second floors. Consequently, egress from each floor to the exit discharge requires travel wither up or down via stairs. The building area is 14,600 s.f. per floor. The exterior walls of the building are concrete, brick masonry veneer and wood structure. The floors, beams and columns are a mix of noncombustible and combustible construction. Since the exterior walls have combustible materials, the construction type is most consistent with Type VB materials. As a part of the renovations, the building will be fully sprinklered utilizing the fire service that was installed during the 2014 renovations. The existing fire alarm system will be upgraded to accommodate the new sprinkler system and other additional devices that will be added during the renovations. This Code Review Information pertains only to the architectural elements of the project and does not address the requirements for the plumbing, mechanical, electrical and fire protection portions of the work. APPLICABLE CODES Code Type Applicable Code Building Massachusetts State Building Code (780 CMR) 9th Edition - based on the 2015 International Building Code with Massachusetts amendments. Existing Building Code of Massachusetts (780 CMR 34.00) based on the 2015 International Existing Building Code with Massachusetts amendments. Accessibility 521 CMR — Massachusetts Architectural Access Board (MAAB) Regulations Plumbing 248 CMR — Massachusetts Fuel Gas and Plumbing Code Required number of fixtures only Energy 2018 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) with Massachusetts amendments per 780 CMR 13.00 Rowse Architects 2 Hampshire Street, Suite 106,Foxboro,Massachusetts Tel: 774-215-0290 Page 1 of 6 CAPE COD COLLABORATIVE RENOVATIONS 1175 Route 28, Yarmouth, Massachusetts MASSACHUSETTS IEBC 780 CMR 34.00 indicates that the International Existing Building Code 2015 with Massachusetts amendments shall be used for existing buildings. Compliance with the MA IEBC is achieved utilizing the Work Area Compliance Method per Section 301.1.2 which indicates that the work shall comply with the applicable requirements of Chapters 5 — 13. The renovations are classified as Level 1 and Level 2 Alterations per Section 503 and 504 respectively. NOTE: As noted above, renovations in a portion of the building were made in 2014 for Bridgewater State University. Those renovations were made based upon a change in occupancy from E (Educational) to B (Business) for post secondary education. The current renovations return the entire building to an Educational occupancy. Per discussions with the local building official, it was agreed that the renovations in the Bridgewater State University area do not need to be considered a change in occupancy from Business back to Educational. Level 1 Alterations are defined as "...the removal and replacement or the covering of existing materials, elements, equipment, or fixtures using new materials, elements, equipment, or fixtures that serve the same purpose." Level 1 Alterations shall comply with the requirements of Chapter 7. The general description of the Level 1 Alterations are: New floor finishes. New wall finishes. New ceilings. Door hardware replacement at selected doors. Level 2 Alterations are defined as "...the reconfiguration of space, the addition or elimination of any door or window, the reconfiguration or extension of any system, or the installation of any additional equipment." Level 2 Alterations shall comply with the requirements of Chapters 7 & 8. Not all Level 2 Alterations require configuration of space. Chapter 2 indicates that Work Area is defined as reconfigured spaces. Therefore, installation of the sprinkler system, mechanical and electrical work, while extensive, are not utilized to determine the Work Areas since they do not reconfigure space. This is supported by IEBC Commentary for the Work Area definition. Thus only the reconfigured spaces are designated as Work Areas as shown on the Work Area Plans on Drawing G1.01. As shown on those plans, the Work Areas of reconfigured spaces are 20% of the total building area and do not trigger the requirements of Section 505 for Level 3 Alterations since they area less than 50% of the total building area. The general description of the Level 2 Alterations are: LEVEL 2 ALTERATIONS WITHOUT RECONFIGURATION Removal of existing plaster ceilings to allow for installation of new sprinkler system. Installation of new sprinkler system from the existing fire service installed in 2013. Replacement of the existing unit ventilators in the classrooms. Mechanical equipment and distribution upgrades in other areas of the building. Rowse Architects 2 Hampshire Street, Suite 106,Foxboro,Massachusetts Tel: 774-215-0290 Page 2 of 6 CAPE COD COLLABORATIVE RENOVATIONS 1175 Route 28, Yarmouth, Massachusetts Replacement of selected plumbing fixtures. Installation of new electrical distribution and data systems throughout the building. New lighting throughout the building Upgrades to the existing fire alarm system. Cutting and patching of holes in walls and floors to accommodate the above work. LEVEL 2 ALTERATIONS WITH RECONFIGURATION See First Floor Work Area Plan. See Second Floor Work Plan. CHAPTER 7 REQUIREMENTS 702.1 & 702.2 Finishes — new wall, ceiling and floor finishes shall comply with 780 CMR Chapter 8. See the discussion below for Section 803.4 for additional information. 702.6 Materials and Methods — all new work shall comply with the requirements for new construction per 780 CMR, 780 CMR- 13.00 and other referenced standards. 705.1 Accessibility — a facility that is altered shall comply with Sections 705.1.1 through 705.1.14 and 780 CMR Chapter 11 unless it is technically infeasible. In turn, 780 CMR Chapter 11 indicates that accessibility shall be in accordance with 521 CMR Massachusetts Architectural Access Board Regulations. Per 521 CMR 3.3.1.b, alterations where the work is more than $100,000 and less than 30% of the full and fair cash value of the building, then the work being performed is required to comply with 521 CMR and provide an accessible entrance, accessible toilet room and telephone / drinking fountain when provided. 1. Per the Town of Yarmouth Assessor's Office, the assessed value of the building without land is $3,127,200. Therefore, the 30% threshold is $938,160. 2. Per 521 CMR 3.3.1.b, Exception b, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, sprinkler and hazardous material abatement which does not involve alteration to elements/spaces required to be accessible are not subject to 521 CMR 3.3.1. Additionally, 521 CMR 3.3.1.b indicates that the exempted work should have separate permits. The asbestos abatement will be performed prior to the main construction under a separate permit and permits for mechanical, electrical, plumbing and sprinklers will be obtained separately. Therefore, the cost of the work associated with the architectural portion of the work is used with respect to the 30% threshold. At this time the architectural portion of the work is assumed to be less than the $938,160. 3. The new construction associated with the alterations shall be accessible per the requirements of 521 CMR. 1. The existing entrance at Stair A is at grade and provides access to the First and Second Floors via a lift installed in the 2014 renovations. 2. The existing Second Floor toilet rooms installed in the 2014 renovations are accessible. 3. Additional gender neutral toilet rooms as part of the alteration work at the First Floor. See the discussion below for Section 810.1 for further information. 4. New drinking fountains shall be accessible. Rowse Architects 2 Hampshire Street, Suite 106,Foxboro,Massachusetts Tel: 774-215-0290 Page 3 of 6 CAPE COD COLLABORATIVE RENOVATIONS 1 175 Route 28, Yarmouth, Massachusetts 705.1, Exception 2—accessible means of egress per 780 CMR Chapter 10 are not required. 708.1 Energy Conservation—see discussion at Section 811.1 below. CHAPTER 8 REQUIREMENTS 801.3 Compliance — all new construction shall comply with the requirements of 780 CMR for new construction. 803.2.1 Existing Vertical Openings — existing vertical openings connecting 2 or more floors shall be enclosed in 1 hour rated assemblies with opening protectives. Section 803.2.1 Exception 6 indicates that the enclosure for vertical openings not exceeding three stories in Group E (Educational) are not required when the building is fully sprinklered. Stair A is unenclosed and open to the corridor at both the First and Second Floors. Stairs B, C & D are enclosed by walls assumed to provide a minimum 1 hour rating. Since the enclosures are not required to be rated, opening protectives are not required. 803.4 Interior Finish — the interior finish of walls and ceilings in exits and corridors shall comply with 780 CMR Chapter 8. Per 780 CMR Table 803.11 (with sprinklers): Exits - wall and ceiling finishes shall be Class B (Flame Spread 26-75; Smoke Developed less than 450). Corridors - wall and ceiling finishes shall be Class C (Flame Spread 76-200; Smoke Developed less than 450). Existing finishes that do not comply with the above are permitted to remain when treated with approved fire retardant coatings to achieve the rating. Per 780 CMR 804.4.2, floor finishes in sprinklered buildings for Group E shall comply with DOC FF-1 Pill Test. 804.1.1 Corridor Ratings — when the building is fully sprinklered, the corridor rating can be reduced to 0 hour for Group E per 780 CMR Table 1020.1. 805.3.1 Minimum Number of Exits — every story shall have the required number of exits based on the calculated occupant load but not less than two per 780 CMR Chapter 10. See the Occupant Load/Egress Plans on Drawing G1.01 for the occupant load calculations and egress capacity. First Floor — occupant load = 689 — 3 exits required per 780 CMR Table 1006.3.1. As shown on the Occupant Load/Egress Plan, 4 exits are provided via Stair A, Stair C, Exit 8 and Exit 9 with a capacity of 710. Exit 7 provides a second means of egress to the spaces to the north side of Stair C. Second Floor — occupant load = 395 — 2 exits required per 780 CMR Table 1006.3.1. As shown on the Occupant Load/Egress Plan, 5 exits are provided via Stair A (Exit 1), Stair B (Exit 2), Stair C (Exit 3), Stair D (Exit 4) and Exit 5 with a capacity of 1,093. Exit 6 provides an additional means of egress from High School 222 & 223. Rowse Architects 2 Hampshire Street, Suite 106,Foxboro,Massachusetts Tel: 774-215-0290 Page 4 of 6 CAPE COD COLLABORATIVE RENOVATIONS 1175 Route 28, Yarmouth, Massachusetts 805.4.2 Door Swing — in the Work Area and the path of egress from the Work Area to the exit discharge, all egress doors serving an occupant load greater than 50 shall swing in the direction of travel. 805.4.3 Door Closing— in any Work Area, doors opening into an exit stair shall be self-closing. 805.5 Exception - Openings in Corridor Walls — corridor openings are not required to rated when permitted by 780 CMR. As noted above at Section 804.1.1, a corridor is not required and thus the openings are not required to be rated. 805.6 Exception 3 - Dead End Corridors — dead end corridors are permitted to be 70' when the building is fully sprinklered. 805.9 & 805.9.1 Handrails — handrails from the Work Area to and including the level of exit discharge shall comply. Every required exit stair with more than 3 risers shall have handrails on at least one side. Exiting handrails that are in danger of collapsing shall be replaced with a handrail on at least one side. Per Section 805.9.2, all handrails (new and existing) shall be in accordance with 780 CMR Section 1014. The existing stairs have handrails on both sides and will be made to comply. This includes the exterior stairs as they are part of the exit discharge. 805.11 & 805.11.1 Guards - guards from the Work Area to and including the level of exit discharge shall comply. Every open portion of a stair, landing or balcony more than 30" above floor or grade below shall have guards. Exiting guards that are in danger of collapsing shall be provided with new guards. Per Section 805.11.2, all guards (new and existing) shall be in accordance with 780 CMR Section 1015. This includes the exterior stairs as they are part of the exit discharge. 806.2 Accessibility—accessibility shall comply with the requirements of Section 705. 810.1 Minimum Plumbing Fixtures —when the occupant load of a story is increased by more than 20%, plumbing fixtures for the story shall be provided in accordance with 248 CMR. The renovations do not materially alter the character of use of the individual rooms. It is assumed that the occupant load after renovations is essentially the same as the occupant load prior to the renovations. Therefore, the requirements of Section 810.1 would not apply. Typically the number of toilet fixtures are based on the calculated occupant load for egress which creates unrealistic fixture counts. Since the program for this program is specialized, the actual occupant load is extremely low with 50 students and 30 staff. The capacity of the existing toilet fixtures is indicated below. Second Floor — new accessible male and female toilet rooms were created in the 2014 renovations. Based on 248 CMR Table 1 for Secondary Educational, those rooms have a capacity as follows: Rowse Architects 2 Hampshire Street, Suite 106,Foxboro,Massachusetts Tel: 774-215-0290 Page 5 of 6 CAPE COD COLLABORATIVE RENOVATIONS 1175 Route 28, Yarmouth,Massachusetts Fixture Type Number Rate Total Capacity Female Water Closets 4 1 per 30 120 Lavatories 3 1 per 90 270 Male Water Closets 2 Urinals 1 per 90 180 2 1 per 90 180 Lavatories 3 1 per 90 270 First Floor — there are two non-accessible single use gender neutral toilet rooms and one accessible single use gender neutral toilet room. While the Second Floor toilet rooms provide adequate capacity for the actual student occupant load of 50, having to travel there from the First Floor is undesirable operationally. Therefore, it is proposed that one existing non- accessible single use gender neutral toilet room and the existing accessible single user gender neutral toilet room be dedicated for students. This provides a capacity of 30 for females and 90 for males. This appears to be permitted per 248 CMR 10.10(18)(m)3 and 10.10(18)(r). Per 248 CMR 10.10(18)(h)4, separate toilet facilities shall be provided for teachers and staff. Based on 30 staff members (15 female/15 male) and 248 CMR 10.10(18) Table 1, 1 water closet and 1 lavatory would be required for each gender. Therefore it is proposed that one existing non-accessible gender neutral toilet room and a new accessible single use gender neutral toilet room be dedicated for staff. This appears to be permitted by 248 CMR 10.10(18)(i)3 and 10.10(18)(m) & (r). Per 248 CMR 10.10(18)(h)5, separate toilet facilities are required for kitchen staff. A new accessible single use gender neutral toilet will be provided in the Kitchen area. 811.1 Energy Conservation -there are no Level 2 Alterations that affect the exterior envelope. Therefore, the requirements of 780 CMR 13.00 are not applicable. In spite of that, insulation will be added to the attic to improve the building envelope. New attic insulation will be added at the Second Floor ceiling framing to achieve a minimum R-Value of 38. This is consistent with Table C402.1.3 of the Energy Conservation Code 2018 of Massachusetts. An air barrier will be applied to the existing 12" x 12" stapled acoustic ceiling tiles via a layer of %" gypsum board with all joints sealed. This is permitted per Section C402.5.1.2.7.
