City of Pequot Lakes WIDSETH <br /> Maintenance Dept. Facility Addition SMITH <br /> Feasibility Study <br /> K <br /> NOLTING <br /> Page 3 <br /> The required fire resistance rating for exterior walls is based on the fire separation distance,type of <br /> construction and occupancy group. Due to the proximity of the adjacent building to the north being <br /> 49'-2"the addition would be required to be 39'-0"or less in order for the north exterior wall to remain <br /> non-rated. The addition is proposed as 35'-0"not requiring the north exterior wall or openings in the wall <br /> to be rated. <br /> Exits(MSBC Chapter lO): <br /> The quantity and types of exits required for a building are dependent on the maximum number of <br /> occupants that could potentially be in the building based on building code criteria. Below is a table <br /> indicating the number of occupants in the existing vehicle storage area based on the code requirements, <br /> along with the calculated width of exits required. <br /> Existing First Floor <br /> Parking Garage 13,738 sq. ft./200 = 68.7 <br /> Meeting Room 880 sq. ft./15 = 58.7 <br /> Office Area 562 sq. ft./100 = 5.6 <br /> Storage 185 sq. ft./300 = .6 <br /> Toilets N/A <br /> Proposed First Floor <br /> Parking Garage 2,000 sq. ft./200 = 10.0 <br /> Office 120 sq. ft./100 = 1.2 <br /> Storage 600 sq. ft./300 = 2.0 <br /> Toilet N/A <br /> Existing Second Floor <br /> Storage Mezzanine 916 sq.ft./300 = 3.1 <br /> Offices 442 sq.ft./100 = 4.4 <br /> Mechanical/Storage 430 sq. ft./300 = 1.4 <br /> TOTAL 155.7 occupants <br /> The required width is then calculated by multiplying the number of occupants by a specified factor for an <br /> unsprinkled building. <br /> 1 55.7 occupants x 0.2 inches per occupant=31.1"required. <br /> The actual total width provided for all exits is 144"and well exceeds the required 31.1"(compliant). <br /> The maximum travel distance to an exit in an unsprinkled S-2 occupancy is 300-feet. Based on the <br /> distribution of the existing and proposed exits in the parking garage area,the facility will comply. <br /> Plumbing Systems(MSBC Chapter 29 and MAC Chapter 10: <br /> Required Fixtures <br /> Male W.C.= 1 <br /> Female W.C.= I <br /> Lavatories=2 <br /> Fixtures Provided <br /> Male W.C.= 1 <br /> Female W.C. = 1 <br /> Accessible Unisex W.C.= 1 <br /> Lavatories=2 <br /> The unisex toilet in the addition meets accessible toilet requirements for the parking garage portion of the <br /> facility and therefore would be in compliance. <br /> J:\01308-City Of Pequot LakLs\013080057-Maintenance Facility Addition And Salt Shed Study\0130B0057.000-Maintenance Facility Addition And Salt Shed Study\Reports\Feasibility Study.Docx <br />
