It is founded on broad-based principles intended to encourage the use and reuse of existing buildings while requiring reason- able upgrades and improvements. This 2021 edition is fully compatible with all of the Interna- tional Codes® (I-Codes®) published by the International Code Council® (ICC®), including the International Building Code® (IBC®), International Energy Conservation Code® (IECC®), Interna- tional Fire Code® (IFC®), International Fuel Gas Code® (IFGC®), International Green Construction Code® (IgCC®), International Mechanical Code® (IMC®), International Plumbing Code® (IPC®), International Private Sewage Disposal Code® (IPSDC®), International Property Maintenance Code® (IPMC®), International Residential Code® (IRC®), International Swimming Pool and Spa Code® (ISPSC®), International Wildland-Urban Interface Code® (IWUIC®), International Zoning Code® (IZC®) and International Code Council Performance Code® (ICCPC®). The I-Codes, including the IEBC, are used in a variety of ways in both the public and private sec- tors. Most industry professionals are familiar with the I-Codes as the basis of laws and regulations in communities across the US and in other countries. However, the impact of the codes extends well beyond the regulatory arena, as they are used in a variety of nonregulatory settings, includ- ing: • Voluntary compliance programs such as those promoting sustainability, energy efficiency and disaster resistance. • The insurance industry, to estimate and manage risk, and as a tool in underwriting and rate decisions. • Certification and credentialing of individuals involved in the fields of building design, con- struction and safety. • Certification of building and construction-related products. • US federal agencies, to guide construction in an array of government-owned properties. • Facilities management. • “Best practices” benchmarks for designers and builders, including those who are engaged in projects in jurisdictions that do not have a formal regulatory system or a governmental enforcement mechanism. • College, university and professional school textbooks and curricula. • Reference works related to building design and construction. In addition to the codes themselves, the code development process brings together building professionals on a regular basis. It provides an international forum for discussion and deliberation about building design, construction methods, safety, performance requirements, technological advances and innovative products. Development This 2021 edition presents the code as originally issued, with changes reflected in the 2006 through 2018 editions and further changes approved by the ICC Code Development Process through 2019. A new edition such as this is promulgated every 3 years. This code is founded on principles intended to encourage the use and reuse of existing build- ings that adequately protect public health, safety and welfare; provisions that do not unnecessar- ily increase construction costs; provisions that do not restrict the use of new materials, products or methods of construction; and provisions that do not give preferential treatment to particular types or classes of materials, products or methods of construction.

Proposed changes are carefully considered through an open code development process in which all interested and affected parties may participate. The ICC Code Development Process reflects principles of openness, transparency, balance, due pro- cess and consensus, the principles embodied in OMB Circular A-119, which governs the federal govern- ment’s use of private-sector standards. The ICC process is open to anyone; there is no cost to participate, and people can participate without travel cost through the ICC’s cloud-based app, cdpAccess®. A broad cross section of interests are represented in the ICC Code Development Process. The codes, which are updated regularly, include safeguards that allow for emergency action when required for health and safety reasons. In order to ensure that organizations with a direct and material interest in the codes have a voice in the process, the ICC has developed partnerships with key industry segments that support the ICC’s important public safety mission. Some code development committee members were nominated by the following industry partners and approved by the ICC Board: • American Institute of Architects (AIA) • National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) The code development committees evaluate and make recommendations regarding proposed changes to the codes. Their recommendations are then subject to public comment and council-wide votes. The ICC’s governmental members—public safety officials who have no financial or business interest in the outcome—cast the final votes on proposed changes. The contents of this work are subject to change through the code development cycles and by any governmental entity that enacts the code into law. For more information regarding the code develop- ment process, contact the Codes and Standards Development Department of the ICC. While the I-Code development procedure is thorough and comprehensive, the ICC, its members and those participating in the development of the codes disclaim any liability resulting from the publi- cation or use of the I-Codes, or from compliance or noncompliance with their provisions. The ICC does not have the power or authority to police or enforce compliance with the contents of this code. Code Development Committee Responsibilities (Letter Designations in Front of Section Numbers) In each code development cycle, proposed changes to this code are considered at the Committee Action Hearings by the International Existing Building Code Development Committee. Proposed changes to a code section having a number beginning with a letter in brackets are considered by a dif- ferent code development committee. For example, proposed changes to code sections that are pre- ceded by the designation [F] (e.g., [F] 1504.2 are considered by the International Fire Code Development Committee at the Committee Action Hearings. The content of sections in this code that begin with a letter designation is maintained by another code development committee in accordance with the following: [A] = Administrative Code Development Committee; [BE] = IBC—Means of Egress Code Development Committee; [BG] = IBC—General Code Development Committee; [BS] = IBC—Structural Code Development Committee; Copyright © 2020 ICC.

For the development of the 2024 edition of the I-Codes, there will be two groups of code develop- ment committees and they will meet in separate years, as shown in the following Code Development Hearings Table. Code change proposals submitted for code sections that have a letter designation in front of them will be heard by the respective committee responsible for such code sections. Because different com- mittees hold Committee Action Hearings in different years, it is possible that some proposals for this code will be heard by a committee in a different year than the year in which the primary committee for this code meets. In the case of the IEBC, the primary committees that maintain this code will meet in 2022. For instance, Section 1501.3 is designated as the responsibility of the IBC—General Code Develop- ment Committee. This committee will conduct its code development hearings in 2021 to consider all code change proposals to the International Building Code and any portions of other codes that it is responsible for, including Section 1501.3 of the IEBC and other general provisions of the IEBC (desig- nated with [BG] in front of those sections). Therefore, any proposals received for Section 1501.3 will be considered in 2021 by the IBC—General Code Development Committee. It is very important that anyone submitting code change proposals understand which code devel- opment committee is responsible for the section of the code that is the subject of the code change proposal.

Deletion indicators in the form of an arrow () are provided in the margin where an entire section, exception or table has been deleted or an item in a list of items or row of a table has been deleted. A single asterisk [*] placed in the margin indicates that text or a table has been relocated within the code. A double asterisk [**] placed in the margin indicates that the text or table immediately following it has been relocated there from elsewhere in the code. The following table indicates such relocations in the 2021 edition of the IEBC. RELOCATIONS Coordination of the International Codes The coordination of technical provisions is one of the strengths of the ICC family of model codes. The codes can be used as a complete set of complementary documents, which will provide users with full integration and coordination of technical provisions. Individual codes can also be used in subsets or as stand-alone documents. To make sure that each individual code is as complete as possible, some tech- nical provisions that are relevant to more than one subject area are duplicated in some of the model codes. This allows users maximum flexibility in their application of the I-Codes. Italicized Terms Terms italicized in code text, other than document titles, are defined in Chapter 2. The terms selected to be italicized have definitions that the user should read carefully to better understand the code. Where italicized, the Chapter 2 definition applies. If not italicized, common-use definitions apply. Adoption The ICC maintains a copyright in all of its codes and standards. Maintaining copyright allows the ICC to fund its mission through sales of books, in both print and electronic formats. The ICC welcomes adop- tion of its codes by jurisdictions that recognize and acknowledge the ICC’s copyright in the code, and further acknowledge the substantial shared value of the public/private partnership for code develop- ment between jurisdictions and the ICC. The ICC also recognizes the need for jurisdictions to make laws available to the public. All I-Codes and I-Standards, along with the laws of many jurisdictions, are available for free in a nondownloadable form on the ICC’s website. Jurisdictions should contact the ICC at adoptions@iccsafe.org to learn how to adopt and distribute laws based on the IEBC in a manner that provides necessary access, while maintaining the ICC’s copyright. To facilitate adoption, several sections of this code contain blanks for fill-in information that needs to be supplied by the adopting jurisdiction as part of the adoption legislation.

A large number of existing buildings and structures do not comply with the current building code requirements for new construction. Although many of these buildings are potentially salvage- able, rehabilitation is often cost-prohibitive because compliance with all the requirements for new construction could require extensive changes that go well beyond the value of the building or the orig- inal scope of the alteration. At the same time, it is necessary to regulate construction in existing build- ings that undergo additions, alterations, extensive repairs or change of occupancy. Such activity represents an opportunity to ensure that new construction complies with the current building codes and that existing conditions are maintained, at a minimum, to their current level of compliance or are improved as required to meet basic safety levels. To accomplish this objective, and to make the alter- ation process easier, this code allows for options for controlled departure from full compliance with the International Codes dealing with new construction, while maintaining basic levels for fire safety, structural and life safety features of the rehabilitated building. This code provides three main options for a designer in dealing with alterations of existing build- ings. These are laid out in Section 301 of this code: OPTION 1: Work for alteration, change of occupancy or addition of all existing buildings shall be done in accordance with the Prescriptive Compliance Method given in Chapter 5. It should be noted that this method originates from the former Chapter 34 of the International Building Code (2012 and ear- lier editions). OPTION 2: Work for alteration, change of occupancy or addition of all existing buildings shall be done in accordance with the Work Area Compliance Method given in Chapters 6 through 12. OPTION 3: Work for alteration, change of occupancy or addition of all existing buildings shall be done in accordance with the Performance Compliance Method given in Chapter 13. It should be noted that this option was also provided in the former Chapter 34 of the International Building Code (2012 and earlier editions). Under limited circumstances, a building alteration can be made to comply with the laws under which the building was originally built, as long as the accessibility requirements are met, there has been no substantial structural damage and there will be limited structural alteration. Flood hazard provisions also must still be addressed where there is a substantial improvement.

The IEBC, like other codes published by ICC, is arranged and organized to follow logical steps that generally occur during a plan review or inspection. The following table shows how the IEBC is divided. The ensuing chapter-by-chapter synopsis details the scope and intent of the provisions of the IEBC. CHAPTER TOPICS Chapter 1 Scope and Administration This chapter contains provisions for the application, enforcement and administration of subse- quent requirements of the code. In addition to establishing the scope of the code, Chapter 1 iden- tifies which buildings and structures come under its purview. Chapter 1 is largely concerned with maintaining “due process of law” in enforcing the regulations contained in the body of the code. Only through careful observation of the administrative provisions can the code official reasonably expect to demonstrate that “equal protection under the law” has been provided. Chapter 2 Definitions All defined terms in the code are provided in Chapter 2. While a defined term may only be used in one chapter or another, the meaning provided in Chapter 2 is applicable throughout the code. Where understanding of a term’s definition is especially key to or necessary for understanding of a particular code provision, the term is shown in italics wherever it appears in the code. This is true only for those terms that have a meaning that is unique to the code. In other words, the gen- erally understood meaning of a term or phrase might not be sufficient or consistent with the meaning prescribed by the code; therefore, it is essential that the code-defined meaning be known. Guidance regarding tense, gender and plurality of defined terms as well as guidance regarding terms not defined in this code is also provided.

The main role is to explain the three compliance options avail- able in the code. Clarification is provided as to how provisions in other I-Codes related to repairs, alter- ations, additions, relocation and changes in occupancy must also be addressed unless they conflict with the IEBC. In that case, the IEBC takes precedence. In addition, this chapter also lays out the meth- ods to be used for seismic design and evaluation throughout the IEBC. There are also several issues that are addressed globally for all methods for consistent application including storm shelters, accessi- bility, smoke alarms, carbon monoxide detection and exterior wall coverings. Chapter 4 Repairs Chapter 4 governs the repair of existing buildings. The provisions define conditions under which repairs may be made using materials and methods like those of the original construction or the extent to which repairs must comply with requirements for new buildings. This chapter, like Chapter 14 related to relocated or moved buildings, is independent from the three methods presented by this code. Chapter 5 Prescriptive Compliance Method This chapter provides one of the three main options of compliance available in the IEBC for buildings and structures undergoing alteration, addition or change of occupancy. Chapter 6 Classification of Work This chapter provides an overview of the Work Area Method available as an option for rehabilitation of a building. The chapter defines the different classifications of alterations and provides general requirements for alterations, change of occupancy, additions and historic buildings. Detailed require- ments for all of these are given in subsequent Chapters 7 through 12. Chapter 7 Alterations—Level 1 This chapter provides the technical requirements for those existing buildings that undergo Level 1 alterations as described in Section 503, which includes replacement or covering of existing materials, elements, equipment or fixtures using new materials for the same purpose. This chapter, similar to other chapters of this code, covers all building-related subjects, such as structural, mechanical, plumb- ing and electrical as well as the fire and life safety issues when the alterations are classified as Level 1. The purpose of this chapter is to provide detailed requirements and provisions to identify the required improvements in the existing building elements, building spaces and building structural system. This chapter is distinguished from Chapters 8 and 9 by only involving replacement of building components with new components. In contrast, Level 2 alterations involve more space reconfiguration and Level 3 alterations involve more extensive space reconfiguration, exceeding 50 percent of the building area. Chapter 8 Alterations—Level 2 Like Chapter 7, the purpose of this chapter is to provide detailed requirements and provisions to iden- tify the required improvements in the existing building elements, building spaces and building struc- tural system when a building is being altered. This chapter is distinguished from Chapters 7 and 9 by involving space reconfiguration that could be up to and including 50 percent of the area of the build- ing. In contrast, Level 1 alterations (Chapter 7) do not involve space reconfiguration, and Level 3 alter- ations (Chapter 9) involve extensive space reconfiguration that exceeds 50 percent of the building area. Depending on the nature of alteration work, its location within the building and whether it encompasses one or more tenants, improvements and upgrades could be required for the open floor penetrations, sprinkler system or the installation of additional means of egress such as stairs or fire escapes.

The purpose of this chapter is to provide detailed requirements and provisions to identify the required improvements in the existing building elements, building spaces and building structural system. This chapter is distinguished from Chapters 7 and 8 by involving alterations that cover 50 per- cent of the aggregate area of the building. In contrast, Level 1 alterations do not involve space recon- figuration and Level 2 alterations involve extensive space reconfiguration that does not exceed 50 percent of the building area. Depending on the nature of alteration work, its location within the build- ing and whether it encompasses one or more tenants, improvements and upgrades could be required for the open floor penetrations, sprinkler system or the installation of additional means of egress such as stairs or fire escapes. At times and under certain situations, this chapter also intends to improve the safety of certain building features beyond the work area and in other parts of the building where no alteration work might be taking place. Chapter 10 Change of Occupancy The purpose of this chapter is to provide regulations for the circumstances when an existing building is subject to a change of occupancy or a change of occupancy classification. A change of occupancy is not to be confused with a change of occupancy classification. The IBC defines different occupancy classifi- cations in Chapter 3 and special occupancy requirements in Chapter 4. Within specific occupancy clas- sifications, there can be many different types of actual activities that can take place. For instance, a Group A-3 occupancy classification deals with a wide variation of different types of activities, including bowling alleys and courtrooms, indoor tennis courts and dance halls. When a facility changes use from, for example, a bowling alley to a dance hall, the occupancy classification remains A-3, but the different uses could lead to drastically different code requirements. Therefore, this chapter deals with the special circumstances that are associated with a change in the use of a building within the same occupancy classification as well as a change of occupancy classification. Chapter 11 Additions Chapter 11 provides the requirements for additions, which correlate to the code requirements for new construction. There are, however, some exceptions that are specifically stated within this chapter. An “Addition” is defined in Chapter 2 as “an extension or increase in the floor area, number of stories or height of a building or structure.” Chapter 11 contains the minimum requirements for an addition that is not separated from the existing building by a fire wall. Chapter 12 Historic Buildings This chapter provides some exceptions from code requirements when the building in question has his- toric value. The most important criterion for application of this chapter is that the building must be essentially accredited as being of historic significance by a state or local authority after careful review of the historical value of the building. Most, if not all, states have such authorities, as do many local jurisdictions. The agencies with such authority can be located at the state or local government level or through the local chapter of the American Institute of Architects (AIA). Other considerations include the structural condition of the building (i.e., is the building structurally sound), its proposed use, its impact on life safety and how the intent of the code, if not the letter, will be achieved. Chapter 13 Performance Compliance Methods This chapter allows for existing buildings to be evaluated so as to show that alterations or a change of occupancy, while not meeting new construction requirements, will improve the current existing situa- tion. Provisions are based on a numerical scoring system involving 21 various safety parameters and the degree of code compliance for each issue. Copyright © 2020 ICC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

This chapter, like the chapter on repairs, is independent from the three methods presented in this code. Chapter 15 Construction Safeguards The building construction process involves a number of known and unanticipated hazards. Chapter 15 establishes specific regulations in order to minimize the risk to the public and adjacent property. Some construction failures have resulted during the initial stages of grading, excavation and demolition. During these early stages, poorly designed and installed sheeting and shoring have resulted in ditch and embankment cave-ins. Also, inadequate underpinning of adjoining existing structures or careless removal of existing structures has produced construction failures. There are also several fire safety and means of egress issues addressed by this chapter. This chapter is also consistent with Chapter 33 of the IBC and IFC. Chapter 16 Referenced Standards The code contains numerous references to standards that are used to regulate materials and methods of construction. Chapter 16 contains a comprehensive list of all standards that are referenced in the code. The standards are part of the code to the extent of the reference to the standard. Compliance with the referenced standard is necessary for compliance with this code. By providing specifically adopted standards, the construction and installation requirements necessary for compliance with the code can be readily determined. The basis for code compliance is, therefore, established and available on an equal basis to the building code official, contractor, designer and owner. Chapter 16 is organized in a manner that makes it easy to locate specific standards. It lists all of the referenced standards, alphabetically, by acronym of the promulgating agency of the standard. Each agency’s standards are then listed in either alphabetical or numeric order based upon the standard identification. The list also contains the title of the standard; the edition (date) of the standard refer- enced; any addenda included as part of the ICC adoption; and the section or sections of this code that reference the standard. Appendix A Guidelines for the Seismic Retrofit of Existing Buildings Appendix A provides guidelines for upgrading the seismic resistance capacity of different types of existing buildings. It is organized into separate chapters which deal with buildings of different types, including unreinforced masonry buildings, reinforced concrete and reinforced masonry wall buildings, and lightframe wood buildings. This appendix includes its own referenced standards. Appendix B Supplementary Accessibility Requirements for Existing Buildings and Facilities Chapter 11 of the IBC contains provisions that set forth requirements for accessibility to buildings and their associated sites and facilities for people with physical disabilities. Section 306 addresses accessi- bility provisions and alternatives permitted in existing buildings. Appendix B was added to address accessibility in construction for items that are not typically enforceable through the traditional build- ing code enforcement process. Appendix C Guidelines for the Wind Retrofit of Existing Buildings This appendix is intended to provide guidance for retrofitting existing structures to strengthen their resistance to wind forces. This appendix is similar in scope to Appendix A which addresses seismic ret- rofits for existing buildings except that the subject matter is related to wind retrofits. These retrofits are voluntary measures that serve to better protect the public and reduce damage from high wind events for existing buildings. Copyright © 2020 ICC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

Currently there are two chapters which deal with the retrofit of gable ends and the fastening of roof decks, Appendix Chapters C1 and C2, respectively. This appendix includes its own referenced standards. Appendix D Board of Appeals Section 112 of Chapter 1 requires the establishment of a board of appeals to hear appeals regarding determinations made by the code official. Appendix D provides qualification standards for members of the board as well as operational procedures of such board. Resource A Guidelines on Fire Ratings of Archaic Materials and Assemblies In the process of repair and alteration of existing buildings, based on the nature and the extent of the work, the IEBC might require certain upgrades in the fire-resistance rating of building elements, at which time it becomes critical for the designers and the code officials to be able to determine the fire- resistance rating of the existing building elements as part of the overall evaluation for the assessment of the need for improvements. This resource document provides a guideline for such an evaluation for fire-resistance rating of archaic materials that is not typically found in the modern model building codes.

Chapter 1 is in two parts: Part 1—Scope and Administration (Sections 101–102) and Part 2—Administration and Enforcement (Sections 103–117). Section 101 identifies which buildings and structures come under its purview and references other I-Codes® as applicable. This code is intended to be adopted as a legally enforceable document, and it cannot be effective without adequate provisions for its admin- istration and enforcement. The provisions of Chapter 1 establish the authority and duties of the code official appointed by the authority having jurisdiction and also establish the rights and privileges of the registered design professional, contractor and property owner. PART 1—SCOPE AND APPLICATION SECTION 101 SCOPE AND GENERAL REQUIREMENTS [A] 101.1 Title. These regulations shall be known as the Existing Building Code of [NAME OF JURISDICTION], herein- after referred to as “this code.” [A] 101.2 Scope. The provisions of this code shall apply to the repair, alteration, change of occupancy, addition to and relocation of existing buildings. Exception: Detached one- and two-family dwellings and townhouses not more than three stories above grade plane in height with a separate means of egress, and their acces- sory structures not more than three stories above grade plane in height, shall comply with this code or the Inter- national Residential Code. 101.2.1 Application of fire code. Where work regulated by this code is also regulated by the construction require- ments for existing buildings in Chapter 11 of the International Fire Code, such work shall comply with applicable requirements in both codes. [A] 101.3 Purpose. The intent of this code is to provide flex- ibility to permit the use of alternative approaches to achieve compliance with minimum requirements to provide a reason- able level of safety, health, property protection and general welfare insofar as they are affected by the repair, alteration, change of occupancy, addition and relocation of existing buildings. [A] 101.4 Applicability. This code shall apply to the repair, alteration, change of occupancy, addition and relocation of existing buildings, regardless of occupancy, subject to the criteria of Sections 101.4.1 and 101.4.2. [A] 101.4.1 Buildings not previously occupied. A build- ing or portion of a building that has not been previously occupied or used for its intended purpose, in accordance with the laws in existence at the time of its completion, shall be permitted to comply with the provisions of the laws in existence at the time of its original permit unless such permit has expired. Subsequent permits shall comply with the International Building Code or International Residential Code, as applicable, for new construction. [A] 101.4.2 Buildings previously occupied. The legal occupancy of any building existing on the date of adop- tion of this code shall be permitted to continue without change, except as is specifically covered in this code, the International Fire Code, or the International Property Maintenance Code, or as is deemed necessary by the code official for the general safety and welfare of the occupants and the public. [A] 101.5 Safeguards during construction. Construction work covered in this code, including any related demolition, shall comply with the requirements of Chapter 15. [A] 101.6 Appendices. The code official is authorized to require retrofit of buildings, structures or individual struc- tural members in accordance with the appendices of this code if such appendices have been individually adopted. [A] 101.7 Correction of violations of other codes. Repairs or alterations mandated by any property, housing or fire safety maintenance code, or mandated by any licensing rule or ordinance adopted pursuant to law, shall conform only to the requirements of that code, rule or ordinance, and shall not be required to conform to this code unless the code requiring such repair or alteration so provides. SECTION 102 APPLICABILITY [A] 102.1 General. Where there is a conflict between a general requirement and a specific requirement, the specific requirement shall be applicable. Where, in any specific case, different sections of this code specify different materials, methods of construction or other requirements, the most restrictive shall govern. [A] 102.2 Other laws. The provisions of this code shall not be deemed to nullify any provisions of local, state or federal law. [A] 102.3 Application of references. References to chapter or section numbers or to provisions not specifically identi- fied by number shall be construed to refer to such chapter, section or provision of this code. [A] 102.4 Referenced codes and standards. The codes and standards referenced in this code shall be considered part of the requirements of this code to the prescribed extent of each 1-1 Copyright © 2020 ICC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

The code official, member of the Board of Appeals or employee charged with the enforcement of this code, while acting for the jurisdiction in good faith and with- out malice in the discharge of the duties required by this code or other pertinent law or ordinance, shall not thereby be rendered civilly or criminally liable personally and is hereby relieved from personal liability for any damage accruing to persons or property as a result of any act or by reason of an act or omission in the discharge of official duties. [A] 104.8.1 Legal defense. Any suit or criminal complaint instituted against an officer or employee because of an act performed by that officer or employee in the lawful discharge of duties and under the provisions of this code shall be defended by legal representatives of the jurisdiction until the final termination of the proceed- ings.

The details of action granting modifications shall be recorded and entered in the files of the Department of Building Safety. [A] 104.10.1 Flood hazard areas. For existing buildings located in flood hazard areas for which repairs, alter- ations and additions constitute substantial improvement, the code official shall not grant modifications to provi- sions related to flood resistance unless a determination is made that: 1. The applicant has presented good and sufficient cause that the unique characteristics of the size, configuration or topography of the site render compliance with the flood-resistant construction provisions inappropriate. 2.Failure to grant the modification would result in exceptional hardship. 3. The granting of the modification will not result in increased flood heights, additional threats to public safety, extraordinary public expense nor create nuisances, cause fraud on or victimization of the public, or conflict with existing laws or ordinances. 4. The modification is the minimum necessary to afford relief, considering the flood hazard. 5. A written notice will be provided to the applicant specifying, if applicable, the difference between the design flood elevation and the elevation to which the building is to be built, stating that the cost of flood insurance will be commensurate with the increased risk resulting from the reduced floor elevation and that construction below the design flood elevation increases risks to life and property. [A] 104.11 Alternative materials, design and methods of construction, and equipment. The provisions of this code are not intended to prevent the installation of any material or to prohibit any design or method of construction not specifi- cally prescribed by this code, provided that any such alternative has been approved. An alternative material, design or method of construction shall be approved where the code official finds that the proposed design is satisfactory and complies with the intent of the provisions of this code, and that the material, method or work offered is, for the purpose intended, not less than the equivalent of that prescribed in this code in quality, strength, effectiveness, fire resistance, durability and safety. Where the alternative mate- rial, design or method of construction is not approved, the code official shall respond in writing, stating the reasons why the alternative was not approved. [A] 104.11.1 Research reports. Supporting data, where necessary to assist in the approval of materials or assem- blies not specifically provided for in this code, shall consist of valid research reports from approved sources. [A] 104.11.2 Tests. Where there is insufficient evidence of compliance with the provisions of this code or evidence that a material or method does not conform to the requirements of this code, or in order to substantiate claims for alternative materials or methods, the code offi- cial shall have the authority to require tests as evidence of compliance to be made without expense to the jurisdic- tion. Test methods shall be as specified in this code or by other recognized test standards. In the absence of recog- nized and accepted test methods, the code official shall approve the testing procedures. Tests shall be performed by an approved agency. Reports of such tests shall be 1-3 Copyright © 2020 ICC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

A change of occupancy is not to be confused with a change of occupancy classification. The International Building Code® defines different occupancy classifications in Chapter 3 and special occupancy require- ments in Chapter 4. Within specific occupancy classifications there can be many different types of actual activities that can take place. For instance, a Group A-3 occupancy classification deals with a wide variation of different types of activities, including bowling alleys and court- rooms, indoor tennis courts and dance halls. When a facility changes use from, for example, a bowling alley to a dance hall, the occupancy classification remains A-3, but the different uses could lead to drastically different code requirements. Therefore, this chapter deals with the special circumstances that are associated with a change in the use of a building within the same occupancy classification as well as a change of occupancy classification. SECTION 1001 GENERAL 1001.1 Scope. The provisions of this chapter shall apply where a change of occupancy occurs, as defined in Section 202. 1001.2 Certificate of occupancy. A change of occupancy or a change of occupancy within a space where there is a differ- ent fire protection system threshold requirement in Chapter 9 of the International Building Code shall not be made to any structure without the approval of the code official. A certifi- cate of occupancy shall be issued where it has been determined that the requirements for the change of occu- pancy have been met. 1001.2.1 Change of use. Any work undertaken in connection with a change in use that does not involve a change of occupancy classification or a change to another group within an occupancy classification shall conform to the applicable requirements for the work as classified in Chapter 6 and to the requirements of Sections 1002 through 1010. Exception: As modified in Section 1204 for historic buildings. 1001.2.2 Change of occupancy classification or group. Where the occupancy classification of a building changes, the provisions of Sections 1002 through 1011 shall apply. This includes a change of occupancy classification and a change to another group within an occupancy classification. 1001.2.2.1 Partial change of occupancy. Where the occupancy classification or group of a portion of an existing building is changed, Section 1011 shall apply. 1001.3 Certificate of occupancy required. A certificate of occupancy shall be issued where a change of occupancy occurs that results in a different occupancy classification as determined by the International Building Code. SECTION 1002 SPECIAL USE AND OCCUPANCY 1002.1 Compliance with the building code.

The most important criterion for application of this chapter is that the building must be essentially accredited as being of historic significance by a state or local authority after careful review of the historical value of the building. Most, if not all, states have such authorities, as do many local jurisdictions. The agencies with such authority can be located at the state or local government level or through the local chapter of the American Institute of Architects (AIA). Other considerations include the structural condition of the building (i.e., is the building structurally sound), its proposed use, its impact on life safety and how the intent of the code, if not the letter, will be achieved. SECTION 1201 GENERAL 1201.1 Scope. This chapter is intended to provide means for the preservation of historic buildings. Historic buildings shall comply with the provisions of this chapter relating to their repair, alteration, relocation and change of occupancy. [BS] 1201.2 Report. A historic building undergoing alter- ation or change of occupancy shall be investigated and evaluated. If it is intended that the building meet the require- ments of this chapter, a written report shall be prepared and filed with the code official by a registered design profes- sional where such a report is necessary in the opinion of the code official. Such report shall be in accordance with Chap- ter 1 and shall identify each required safety feature that is in compliance with this chapter and where compliance with other chapters of these provisions would be damaging to the contributing historic features. For buildings assigned to Seis- mic Design Category D, E or F, a structural evaluation describing, at a minimum, the vertical and horizontal elements of the lateral force-resisting system and any strengths or weaknesses therein shall be prepared. Addition- ally, the report shall describe each feature that is not in compliance with these provisions and shall demonstrate how the intent of these provisions is complied with in providing an equivalent level of safety. 1201.3 Special occupancy exceptions—museums. Where a building in Group R-3 is used for Group A, B or M purposes such as museum tours, exhibits and other public assembly activities, or for museums less than 3,000 square feet (279 m2), the code official is authorized to determine that the occupancy is Group B where life safety conditions can be demonstrated in accordance with Section 1201.2. Adequate means of egress in such buildings, including, but not limited to, a means of maintaining doors in an open position to permit egress, a limit on building occupancy to an occupant load permitted by the means of egress capacity, a limit on occupancy of certain areas or floors, or supervision by a person knowledgeable in the emergency exiting procedures, shall be provided. [BS] 1201.4 Flood hazard areas. In flood hazard areas, if all proposed work, including repairs, work required because of a change of occupancy, and alterations, constitutes substantial improvement, then the existing building shall comply with Section 1612 of the International Building Code, or Section R322 of the International Residential Code, as applicable. Exception: If a historic building will continue to be a historic building after the proposed work is completed, then the proposed work is not considered a substantial improvement. For the purposes of this exception, a historic building is any of the following: 1. Listed or preliminarily determined to be eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. 2. Determined by the Secretary of the US Depart- ment of Interior to contribute to the historical significance of a registered historic district or a district preliminarily determined to qualify as a historic district. 3. Designated as historic under a state or local historic preservation program that is approved by the Department of Interior. 1201.5 Unsafe conditions. Conditions determined by the code official to be unsafe shall be remedied. Work shall not be required beyond what is required to remedy the unsafe conditions. SECTION 1202 REPAIRS 1202.1 General. Repairs to any portion of a historic building or structure shall be permitted with original or like materials and original methods of construction, subject to the provi- sions of this chapter. Hazardous materials, such as asbestos and lead-based paint, shall not be used where the code for new construction would not permit their use in buildings of similar occupancy, purpose and location. 1202.2 Replacement. Replacement of existing or missing features using original materials shall be permitted. Partial replacement for repairs that match the original in configura- tion, height and size shall be permitted. Replacement glazing in hazardous locations shall comply with the safety glazing requirements of Chapter 24 of the International Building Code. Exception: Glass block walls, louvered windows and jalousies repaired with like materials. 12-1 Copyright © 2020 ICC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

Included within the fire safety cate- gory are the structural fire resistance, automatic fire detection, fire alarm, automatic sprinkler system and fire suppression system features of the facility. 1301.5.2 Means of egress. Included within the means of egress category are the configuration, characteristics and support features for means of egress in the facility. 1301.5.3 General safety. Included within the general safety category are the fire safety parameters and the means of egress parameters. 1301.6 Evaluation process. The evaluation process speci- fied herein shall be followed in its entirety to evaluate existing buildings in Groups A, B, E, F, M, R, S and U. For existing buildings in Group I-2, the evaluation process speci- fied herein shall be followed and applied to each and every individual smoke compartment. Table 1301.7 shall be utilized for tabulating the results of the evaluation. Refer- ences to other sections of this code or other codes indicate that compliance with those sections is required in order to gain credit in the evaluation herein outlined. In applying this section to a building with mixed occupancies, where the separation between the mixed occupancies does not qualify for any category indicated in Section 1301.6.16, the score for each occupancy shall be determined, and the lower score determined for each section of the evaluation process shall apply to the entire building or to each smoke compartment for Group I-2 occupancies. Where the separation between the mixed occupancies qualifies for any category indicated in Section 1301.6.16, the score for each occupancy shall apply to each portion or smoke compartment of the building based on the occupancy of the space. 1301.6.1 Building height and number of stories. The value for building height and number of stories shall be the lesser value determined by the formula in Section 1301.6.1.1. Section 504 of the International Building Code shall be used to determine the allowable height and number of stories of the building. Subtract the actual building height from the allowable height and divide by 121/2 feet (3810 mm). Enter the height value and its sign (positive or negative) in Table 1301.7 under Safety Parameter 1301.6.1, Building Height, for fire safety, means of egress and general safety. The maximum score for a building shall be 10. 1301.6.1.1 Height formula. The following formulas shall be used in computing the building height value. (Equation 13-1) Height value, stories = (AS – EBS) × CF (Equation 13-2) where: AH = Allowable height in feet (mm) from Section 504 of the International Building Code. EBH = Existing building height in feet (mm). AS = Allowable height in stories from Section 504 of the International Building Code. EBS = Existing building height in stories. CF = 1 if (AH) – (EBH) is positive. CF = Construction-type factor shown in Table 1301.6.6(2) if (AH) – (EBH) is negative. Note: Where mixed occupancies are separated and individually evaluated as indicated in Section 1301.6, the values AH, AS, EBH and EBS shall be based on the height of the occupancy being evaluated. 1301.6.2 Building area. The value for building area shall be determined by the formula in Section 1301.6.2.2. Section 506 of the International Building Code and the formula in Section 1301.6.2.1 shall be used to determine the allowable area of the building.

It is organized into separate chapters that deal with buildings of different types, including unreinforced masonry buildings, reinforced concrete and reinforced masonry wall buildings, and light-frame wood buildings. SECTION A101 PURPOSE [BS] A101.1 Purpose. The purpose of this chapter is to promote public safety and welfare by reducing the risk of death or injury from the effects of earthquakes on existing unreinforced masonry bearing wall buildings. The provisions of this chapter are intended as minimum standards for structural seismic resistance, and are estab- lished primarily to reduce the risk of life loss or injury. Compliance with these provisions will not necessarily prevent loss of life or injury, or prevent earthquake damage to retrofitted buildings. SECTION A102 SCOPE [BS] A102.1 General. The provisions of this chapter shall apply to all existing buildings not more than six stories in height above the base of the structure and having not fewer than one unreinforced masonry bearing wall. The elements regulated by this chapter shall be determined in accordance with Table A102.1. Except as provided herein, other struc- tural provisions of the building code shall apply. This chapter does not apply to the alteration of existing electrical, plumbing, mechanical or fire safety systems. [BS] A102.2 Essential and hazardous facilities. The provi- sions of this chapter shall not apply to the strengthening of buildings in Risk Category III or IV. Such buildings shall be strengthened to meet the requirements of the International Building Code for new buildings of the same risk category or other such criteria approved by the code official. SECTION A103 DEFINITIONS [BS] A103.1 Definitions. For the purpose of this chapter, the applicable definitions in the building code shall also apply. [BS] BED JOINT. The horizontal layer of mortar on which a masonry unit is laid. [BS] COLLAR JOINT. The vertical space between adjacent wythes. A collar joint may contain mortar or grout. [BS] CROSSWALL.

The purpose of this chapter is to promote public welfare and safety by reducing the risk of death or injury as a result of the effects of earthquakes on existing wood-frame, multiple-unit residential buildings. The ground motions of past earthquakes have caused the loss of human life, personal injury and property damage in these types of buildings. This chapter creates minimum standards to strengthen the more vulnerable portions of these struc- tures. Where fully followed, these minimum standards will improve the performance of these buildings but will not necessarily prevent all earthquake-related damage. [BS] A401.2 Scope. The provisions of this chapter apply to existing buildings of wood construction that contain residen- tial occupancies and are assigned to Risk Category II, and where the structure has a soft, weak or open-front wall line, and there exists one or more stories above. SECTION A402 DEFINITIONS [BS] A402.1 Definitions. Notwithstanding the applicable definitions, symbols and notations in the building code, the following definitions shall apply for the purposes of this chapter: [BS] ASPECT RATIO. The span-width ratio for horizontal diaphragms and the height-length ratio for shear walls. [BS] NONCONFORMING STRUCTURAL MATERI- ALS. Wall bracing materials other than wood structural panels or diagonal sheathing. [BS] OPEN-FRONT WALL LINE. An exterior wall line, without vertical elements of the lateral force-resisting system, that requires tributary seismic forces to be resisted by diaphragm rotation or excessive cantilever beyond paral- lel lines of shear walls. Diaphragms that cantilever more than 25 percent of the distance between lines of lateral force- resisting elements from which the diaphragm cantilevers shall be considered to be excessive. Exterior exit balconies of 6 feet (1829 mm) or less in width shall not be considered excessive cantilevers. [BS] RETROFIT. An improvement of the lateral force- resisting system by alteration of existing structural elements or addition of new structural elements. [BS] SOFT WALL LINE. A wall line whose lateral stiff- ness is less than that required by story drift limitations or deformation compatibility requirements of this chapter. In lieu of analysis, a soft wall line may be defined as a wall line in a story where the story stiffness is less than 70 percent of the story above for the direction under consideration. [BS] STORY. A story as defined by the building code, including any basement or underfloor space of a building with cripple walls exceeding 4 feet (1219 mm) in height. [BS] WALL LINE. Any length of wall along a principal axis of the building used to provide resistance to lateral loads. Parallel wall lines separated by less than 4 feet (1219 mm) shall be considered to be one wall line for the distribu- tion of loads. [BS] WEAK WALL LINE. A wall line in a story where the story strength is less than 80 percent of the story above in the direction under consideration. SECTION A403 ANALYSIS AND DESIGN [BS] A403.1 General. Modifications required by the provi- sions in this chapter shall be designed in accordance with the International Building Code provisions for new construc- tion, except as modified by this chapter. Exception: Buildings for which the prescriptive measures provided in Section A404 apply and are used. Alteration of the existing lateral force-resisting system or vertical load-carrying system shall not reduce the strength or stiffness of the existing structure, unless the altered structure would remain in conformance to the building code and this chapter. [BS] A403.2 Scope of analysis. This chapter requires the alteration, repair, replacement or addition of structural elements and their connections to meet the strength and stiff- ness requirements herein. The lateral load-path analysis shall include the resisting elements and connections from the wood diaphragm immediately above any soft, weak or open- front wall lines to the foundation soil interface or to the uppermost story of a podium structure comprised of steel, masonry, or concrete structural systems that supports the upper wood-framed structure. Stories above the uppermost story with a soft, weak or open-front wall line shall be considered in the analysis but need not be modified. The lateral load-path analysis for added structural elements shall include evaluation of the allowable soil-bearing and lateral pressures in accordance with the building code. Where any portion of a building within the scope of this chapter is constructed on or into a slope steeper than one unit vertical in three units horizontal (33-percent slope), the lateral force- resisting system at and below the base level diaphragm shall be analyzed for the effects of concentrated lateral forces at the base caused by this hillside condition.

The design base shear in a given direction shall be permitted to be 75 percent of the value required for similar new construction in accordance with the building code. The value of R used in the design of the strengthening of any story shall not exceed the lowest value of R used in the same direction at any story above. The system overstrength factor, Ω0, and the deflection amplification factor, Cd, shall be not less than the largest respective value corresponding to the R factor being used in the direction under consideration. Exceptions: 1. For structures assigned to Seismic Design Cate- gory B, values of R, Ω0 and Cd shall be permitted to be based on the seismic force-resisting system being used to achieve the required strengthening. 2. For structures assigned to Seismic Design Cate- gory C or D, values of R, Ω0 and Cd shall be permitted to be based on the seismic force-resist- ing system being used to achieve the required strengthening, provided that when the strengthen- ing is complete, the strengthened structure will not have an extreme weak story irregularity defined as Type 5b in ASCE 7 Table 12.3-2. 3. For structures assigned to Seismic Design Cate- gory E, values of R, Ω0 and Cd shall be permitted to be based on the seismic force-resisting system being used to achieve the required strengthening, provided that when the strengthening is complete, the strengthened structure will not have an extreme soft story, a weak story, or an extreme weak story irregularity defined, respectively, as Types 1b, 5a and 5b in ASCE 7 Table 12.3-2. 4. For retrofit systems involving different seismic force-resisting systems in the same direction within the same story, resisting elements are permitted to be designed using the least value of R for the different structural systems found in each independent line of resistance if all of the follow- ing conditions are met: 4.1. The building is assigned to Risk Category I or II. 4.2. The building height is no more than four stories above grade plane. 4.3. The seismic force-resisting systems of the retrofitted building comprise only wood structural panel shear walls, steel moment- resisting frames, steel cantilever columns and steel-braced frames. Values for C and Ω0 shall be consistent with the R value used. 5. With reference to ASCE 7 Table 12.2-1, ordinary, intermediate and special steel systems, and all light-frame systems shall be permitted without limitation where those systems are used only for retrofit to comply with the requirements of this chapter. [BS] A403.3.1 Expected story strength. Despite any other requirement of Section A403.3 or A403.4, the total expected strength of retrofit elements added to any story need not exceed 1.7 times the expected strength of the story immediately above in a two-story building, or 1.3 times the expected strength of the story immediately above in a three-story or taller building, as long as the retrofit elements are located symmetrically about the center of mass of the story above, or so as to minimize torsion in the retrofitted story. Calculation of expected story strength and identification of irregularities in Section A403.3 shall be based on the expected strength of all wall lines, even if sheathed with nonconforming mate- rials. The strength of a wall line above the retrofitted story shall be permitted to be reduced to account for inadequate load path or overturning resistance. [BS] A403.3.2 Seismicity parameters, site class and geologic hazards. For any site designated as Site Class E, the value of F shall be taken as 1.2. Site-specific proce- dures are not required for compliance with this chapter. Mitigation of existing geologic site hazards such as lique- fiable soil, fault rupture or landslide is not required for compliance with this chapter. [BS] A403.4 Story drift limitations. The calculated story drift for each retrofitted story shall not exceed the allowable deformation compatible with all vertical load-resisting elements and 0.025 times the story height. The calculated story drift shall not be reduced by the effects of horizontal diaphragm stiffness but shall be increased where these effects produce rotation. Drift calculations shall be in accor- dance with the building code. [BS] A403.4.1 Pole structures. The effects of rotation and soil stiffness shall be included in the calculated story drift where lateral loads are resisted by vertical elements whose required depth of embedment is determined by pole formulas. The coefficient of subgrade reaction used in deflection calculations shall be based on a geotechnical investigation conducted in accordance with the building code. [BS] A403.5 Deformation compatibility and P Δ effects. The requirements of the building code shall apply, except as modified herein. Structural framing elements and their connections not required by design to be part of the lateral force-resisting system shall be designed and detailed to be adequate to maintain support of expected gravity loads when subjected to the expected deformations caused by seismic forces. Increased demand caused by P Δ effects and story sidesway stability shall be considered in retrofit stories that rely on the strength and stiffness of cantilever columns for lateral resistance. [BS] A403.6 Ties and continuity. All parts of the structure included in the scope of Section A403.2 shall be intercon- nected as required by the building code. [BS] A403.7 Collector elements. Collector elements shall be provided to transfer the seismic forces between the elements within the scope of Section A403.2. APPENDIX A-38 Copyright © 2020 ICC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

For all other diaphragms adequate strength shall be shown to be provided at locations where forces are transferred between the diaphragm and each new or strengthened vertical element of the seis- mic force-resisting system. Collector elements shall be provided where needed to distribute the transferred force over a greater length of diaphragm. Exception: Where the existing vertical elements of the seismic force-resisting system are shown to comply with this chapter, diaphragms need not be evaluated. [BS] A403.9 Wood-framed shear walls. Wood-framed shear walls shall have strength and stiffness sufficient to resist the seismic loads and shall conform to the require- ments of this section.

User note: About this appendix: Appendix C is intended to provide guidance for retrofitting existing structures to strengthen their resistance to wind forces. This appendix is similar in scope to Appendix A, which addresses seismic retrofits for existing buildings, except that the subject matter is related to wind retrofits. These retrofits are voluntary measures that serve to better protect the public and reduce damage from high-wind events for existing buildings. The purpose of this appendix is to provide prescriptive alternatives for addressing retrofit of buildings in high-wind areas. Currently there are two chapters that deal with the retrofit of gable ends and the fastening of roof decks, Appendix Chapters C1 and C2, respectively. SECTION C101 GENERAL [BS] C101.1 Purpose. This chapter provides prescriptive methods for partial structural retrofit of an existing building to increase its resistance to out-of-plane wind loads. It is intended for voluntary use and for reference by mitigation programs. The provisions of this chapter do not necessarily satisfy requirements for new construction. Unless specifi- cally cited, the provisions of this chapter do not necessarily satisfy requirements for structural improvements triggered by addition, alteration, repair, change of occupancy, build- ing relocation or other circumstances. [BS] C101.2 Eligible buildings and gable end walls. The provisions of this chapter are applicable only to buildings that meet the following eligibility requirements: 1. The building is not more than three stories tall, from adjacent grade to the bottom plate of each gable end wall being retrofitted with this chapter. 2. The building is classified as Occupancy Group R3 or is within the scope of the International Residential Code. 3. The structure includes one or more wood-framed gable end walls, either conventionally framed or metal-plate-connected. In addition, the provisions of this chapter are applicable only to gable end walls that meet the following eligibility requirements: 4. Each gable end wall has or shall be provided with studs or vertical webs spaced 24 inches (610 mm) on center maximum. 5. Each gable end wall has a maximum height of 16 feet (4877 mm). [BS] C101.3 Compliance Eligible gable end walls in eligi- ble buildings may be retrofitted in accordance with this chapter. Other modifications required for compliance with this chapter shall be designed and constructed in accordance with the International Building Code or International Resi- dential Code provisions for new construction, except as specifically provided for by this chapter. SECTION C102 DEFINITIONS [BS] C102.1 Definitions. The following words and terms shall, for the purposes of this chapter, have the meanings shown herein. [BS] ANCHOR BLOCK. A piece of lumber secured to hori- zontal braces and filling the gap between existing framing members for the purpose of restraining horizontal braces from movement perpendicular to the framing members. [BS] COMPRESSION BLOCK. A piece of lumber used to restrain in the compression mode (force directed toward the interior of the attic) an existing or retrofit stud. It is attached to a horizontal brace and bears directly against the existing or retrofit stud. [BS] CONVENTIONALLY FRAMED GABLE END. A gable end framed with studs whose faces are perpendicular to the gable end wall. [BS] GABLE END FRAME. A factory or site-fabricated frame, installed as a complete assembly that incorporates vertical webs with their faces parallel to the plane of the frame. [BS] HORIZONTAL BRACE. A piece of lumber used to restrain both compression and tension loads applied by a retrofit stud. It is typically installed horizontally on the top of attic floor framing members (truss bottom chords or ceiling joists) or on the bottom of pitched roof framing members (truss top chord or rafters). [BS] HURRICANE TIES. Manufactured metal connectors designed to provide uplift and lateral restraint for roof fram- ing members. APPENDIX C-1 Copyright © 2020 ICC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

This resource document provides a guideline for such an evaluation for fire-resistance rating of archaic materials that is not typically found in the modern model building codes. Introduction The International Existing Building Code (IEBC) is a comprehensive code with the goal of addressing all aspects of work taking place in existing buildings and providing user-friendly methods and tools for regulation and improvement of such build- ings. This resource document is included within the cover of the IEBC with that goal in mind and as a step towards accomplish- ing that goal. In the process of repair and alteration of existing buildings, based on the nature and the extent of the work, the IEBC might require certain upgrades in the fire-resistance rating of building elements, at which time it becomes critical for the designers and the code officials to be able to determine the fire-resistance rating of the existing building elements as part of the overall evalua- tion for the assessment of the need for improvements. This resource document provides a guideline for such an evaluation for fire-resistance ratings of archaic materials that are not typically found in the modern model building codes. Resource A is only a guideline and is not intended to be a document for specific adoption as it is not written in the format or language of ICC’s International Codes and is not subject to the code development process. PURPOSE The Guidelines on Fire Ratings of Archaic Materials and Assemblies focuses upon the fire-related performance of archaic construction. “Archaic” encompasses construction typical of an earlier time, generally prior to 1950. “Fire-related performance” includes fire resistance, flame spread, smoke production and degree of combustibility. The purpose of this guideline is to update the information which was available at the time of original construction, for use by architects, engineers and code officials when evaluating the fire safety of a rehabilitation project. In addition, information rele- vant to the evaluation of general classes of materials and types of construction is presented for those cases when documentation of the fire performance of a particular archaic material or assembly cannot be found. It has been assumed that the building materials and their fastening, joining and incorporation into the building structure are sound mechanically. Therefore, some determination must be made that the original manufacture, the original construction prac- tice, and the rigors of aging and use have not weakened the building. This assessment can often be difficult because process and quality control was not good in many industries, and variations among locally available raw materials and manufacturing tech- niques often resulted in a product which varied widely in its strength and durability. The properties of iron and steel, for exam- ple, varied widely, depending on the mill and the process used. There is nothing inherently inferior about archaic materials or construction techniques. The pressures that promote funda- mental change are most often economic or technological matters not necessarily related to concerns for safety. The high cost of labor made wood lath and plaster uneconomical. The high cost of land and the congestion of the cities provided the impetus for high-rise construction. Improved technology made it possible. The difficulty with archaic materials is not a question of suitabil- ity, but familiarity. Code requirements for the fire performance of key building elements (e.g., walls, floor/ceiling assemblies, doors, shaft enclo- sures) are stated in performance terms: hours of fire resistance. It matters not whether these elements were built in 1908 or 1980, only that they provide the required degree of fire resistance. The level of performance will be defined by the local community, primarily through the enactment of a building or rehabilitation code. This guideline is only a tool to help evaluate the various building elements, regardless of what the level of performance is required to be. The problem with archaic materials is simply that documentation of their fire performance is not readily available. The appli- cation of engineering judgment is more difficult because building officials may not be familiar with the materials or construction method involved. As a result, either a full-scale fire test is required or the archaic construction in question removed and replaced. Both alternatives are time consuming and wasteful. Copyright © 2020 ICC.

By providing the necessary documentation, there will be a firm basis for the continued acceptance of archaic materials and assemblies. 1 FIRE-RELATED PERFORMANCE OF ARCHAIC MATERIALS AND ASSEMBLIES 1.1 FIRE PERFORMANCE MEASURES This guideline does not specify the level of performance required for the various building components. These require- ments are controlled by the building occupancy and use and are set forth in the local building or rehabilitation code. The fire resistance of a given building element is estab- lished by subjecting a sample of the assembly to a “standard” fire test which follows a “standard” time-temperature curve. This test method has changed little since the 1920s. The test results tabulated in the Appendix have been adjusted to reflect current test methods. The current model building codes cite other fire-related properties not always tested for in earlier years: flame spread, smoke production, and degree of combustibility. However, they can generally be assumed to fall within well defined val- ues because the principal combustible component of archaic materials is cellulose. Smoke production is more important today because of the increased use of plastics. However, the early flame spread tests, developed in the early 1940s, also included a test for smoke production. “Plastics,” one of the most important classes of contempo- rary materials, were not found in the review of archaic mate- rials. If plastics are to be used in a rehabilitated building, they should be evaluated by contemporary standards. Information and documentation of their fire-related properties and perfor- mance is widely available. Flame spread, smoke production and degree of combusti- bility are discussed in detail below. Test results for eight common species of lumber, published in an Underwriter’s Laboratories’ report (104), are noted in the following table: TUNNEL TEST RESULTS FOR EIGHT SPECIES OF LUMBER Flame Spread The flame spread of interior finishes is most often mea- sured by the ASTM E84 “tunnel test.” This test measures how far and how fast the flames spread across the surface of the test sample. The resulting flame spread rating (FSR) is expressed as a number on a continuous scale where cement- asbestos board is 0 and red oak is 100. (Materials with a flame spread greater than red oak have an FSR greater than 100.) The scale is divided into distinct groups or classes. The most commonly used flame spread classifications are: Class I or A*, with a 0–25 FSR; Class II or B, with a 26–75 FSR; and Class III or C, with a 76–200 FSR. The NFPA Life Safety Code also has a Class D (201–500 FSR) and Class E (over 500 FSR) interior finish. These classifications are typically used in modern building codes to restrict the rate of fire spread. Only the first three classifications are normally permitted, though not all classes of materials can be used in all places throughout a building. For example, the interior finish of building materials used in exits or in corridors leading to exits is more strictly regulated than materials used within private dwelling units. In general, inorganic archaic materials (e.g., bricks or tile) can be expected to be in Class I. Materials of whole wood are mostly Class II. Whole wood is defined as wood used in the same form as sawn from the tree. This is in contrast to the contemporary reconstituted wood products such as plywood, fiberboard, hardboard, or particle board. If the organic archaic material is not whole wood, the flame spread classifi- cation could be well over 200 and thus would be particularly unsuited for use in exits and other critical locations in a build- ing. Some plywoods and various wood fiberboards have flame spreads over 200. Although they can be treated with fire retardants to reduce their flame spread, it would be advis- able to assume that all such products have a flame spread over 200 unless there is information to the contrary. Smoke Production The evaluation of smoke density is part of the ASTM E84 tunnel test. For the eight species of lumber shown in the table above, the highest levels are 275–305 for Yellow Pine, but most of the others are less smoky than red oak which has an index of 100. The advent of plastics caused substantial increases in the smoke density values measured by the tunnel test. The ensuing limitation of the smoke production for wall and ceiling materials by the model building codes has been a reaction to the introduction of plastic materials. In general, cellulosic materials fall in the 50–300 range of smoke density which is below the general limitation of 450 adopted by many codes. Degree of Combustibility The model building codes tend to define “noncombustibil- ity” on the basis of having passed ASTM E136 or if the mate- rial is totally inorganic. The acceptance of gypsum wallboard as noncombustible is based on limiting paper thickness to not over 1/8 inch and a 0–50 flame spread rating by ASTM E84.

If there is any doubt whether or not an archaic material is noncombustible, it would be appropriate to send out samples for evaluation. If an archaic material is determined to be non- combustible according to ASTM E136, it can be expected that it will not contribute fuel to the fire. 1.2 COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION TYPES One of the earliest forms of timber construction used exte- rior load-bearing masonry walls with columns and/or wooden walls supporting wooden beams and floors in the interior of the building. This form of construction, often called “mill” or “heavy timber” construction, has approximately 1 hour fire resistance. The exterior walls will generally contain the fire within the building. With the development of dimensional lumber, there was a switch from heavy timber to “balloon frame” construction. The balloon frame uses load-bearing exterior wooden walls which have long timbers often extending from foundation to roof. When longer lumber became scarce, another form of construction, “platform” framing, replaced the balloon fram- ing. The difference between the two systems is significant because platform framing is automatically fire-blocked at every floor while balloon framing commonly has concealed spaces that extend unblocked from basement to attic. The architect, engineer, and code official must be alert to the details of construction and the ease with which fire can spread in concealed spaces. 2 BUILDING EVALUATION A given rehabilitation project will most likely go through several stages. The preliminary evaluation process involves the designer in surveying the prospective building. The fire resistance of existing building materials and construction sys- tems is identified; potential problems are noted for closer study. The final evaluation phase includes: developing design solutions to upgrade the fire resistance of building elements, if necessary; preparing working drawings and specifications; and the securing of the necessary code approvals. 2.1 PRELIMINARY EVALUATION A preliminary evaluation should begin with a building sur- vey to determine the existing materials, the general arrange- ment of the structure and the use of the occupied spaces, and the details of construction. The designer needs to know “what is there” before a decision can be reached about what to keep and what to remove during the rehabilitation process. This preliminary evaluation should be as detailed as necessary to make initial plans. The fire-related properties need to be determined from the applicable building or rehabilitation code, and the materials and assemblies existing in the build- ing then need to be evaluated for these properties. Two work sheets are shown below to facilitate the preliminary evalua- tion. Two possible sources of information helpful in the prelim- inary evaluation are the original building plans and the build- ing code in effect at the time of original construction. Plans may be on file with the local building department or in the offices of the original designers (e.g., architect, engineer) or their successors. If plans are available, the investigator should verify that the building was actually constructed as called for in the plans, as well as incorporate any later alterations or changes to the building. Earlier editions of the local building code should be on file with the building official. The code in effect at the time of construction will contain fire perfor- mance criteria. While this is no guarantee that the required performance was actually provided, it does give the investi- gator some guidance as to the level of performance which may be expected. Under some code administration and enforcement systems, the code in effect at the time of con- struction also defines the level of performance that must be provided at the time of rehabilitation. Figure 1 illustrates one method for organizing preliminary field notes. Space is provided for the materials, dimensions, and condition of the principal building elements. Each floor of the structure should be visited and the appropriate informa- tion obtained. In practice, there will often be identical materi- als and construction on every floor, but the exception may be of vital importance. A schematic diagram should be prepared of each floor showing the layout of exits and hallways and indicating where each element described in the field notes fits into the structure as a whole. The exact arrangement of inte- rior walls within apartments is of secondary importance from a fire safety point of view and need not be shown on the drawings unless these walls are required by code to have a fire-resistance rating. The location of stairways and elevators should be clearly marked on the drawings. All exterior means of escape (e.g., fire escapes) should be identified.1 The following notes explain the entries in Figure 1. Exterior Bearing Walls: Many old buildings utilize heavily constructed walls to support the floor/ceiling assemblies at the exterior of the building. There may be columns and/or interior bearing walls within the structure, but the exterior walls are an important factor in assessing the fire safety of a building. The field investigator should note how the floor/ceiling assemblies are supported at the exterior of the building. If columns are incorporated in the exterior walls, the walls may be considered nonbearing. Interior Bearing Walls: It may be difficult to determine whether or not an interior wall is load bearing, but the field investigator should attempt to make this determination. At a later stage of the rehabilitation process, this question will 1. Problems providing adequate exiting are discussed at length in the Egress Guideline for Residential Rehabilitation.

Therefore, the field notes should be as accurate as possible. Exterior Nonbearing Walls: The fire resistance of the exterior walls is important for two reasons. These walls (both bearing and nonbearing) are depended upon to: a) contain a fire within the building of origin; or b) keep an exterior fire out- side the building. It is therefore important to indicate on the drawings where any openings are located as well as the mate- rials and construction of all doors or shutters. The drawings should indicate the presence of wired glass, its thickness and framing, and identify the materials used for windows and door frames. The protection of openings adjacent to exterior means of escape (e.g., exterior stairways, fire escapes) is par- ticularly important. The ground floor drawing should locate the building on the property and indicate the precise distances to adjacent buildings. Interior Nonbearing Walls (Partitions): A partition is a “wall that extends from floor to ceiling and subdivides space within any story of a building.” (48) Figure 1 has two categories (A & B) for Interior Nonbearing Walls (Partitions) which can be used for different walls, such as hallway walls as compared to inter-apartment walls. Under some circumstances there may be only one type of wall construction; in others, three or more types of wall construction may occur. The field investigator should be alert for differences in function as well as in materials and construction details. In general, the details within apartments are not as important as the major exit paths and exit stairways. The preliminary field investigation should attempt to determine the thickness of all walls. A term introduced below called “thickness design” will depend on an accurate (± 1/4 inch) determination. Even though this initial field survey is called “preliminary,” the data generated should be as accurate and complete as possi- ble. The field investigator should note the exact location from which observations are recorded. For instance, if a hole is found through a wall enclosing an exit stairway which allows a cataloguing of the construction details, the field investiga- tion notes should reflect the location of the “find.” At the pre- liminary stage it is not necessary to core every wall; the interior details of construction can usually be determined at some location. Structural Frame: There may or may not be a complete skele- tal frame, but usually there are columns, beams, trusses, or other like elements. The dimensions and spacing of the struc- tural elements should be measured and indicated on the draw- ings. For instance, if there are 10-inch square columns located on a 30-foot square grid throughout the building, this should be noted. The structural material and cover or protec- tive materials should be identified wherever possible. The thickness of the cover materials should be determined to an accuracy of ± 1/4 inch. As discussed above, the preliminary field survey usually relies on accidental openings in the cover materials rather than a systematic coring technique. Floor/Ceiling Structural Systems: The span between supports should be measured. If possible, a sketch of the cross-section of the system should be made. If there is no location where accidental damage has opened the floor/ceiling construction to visual inspection, it is necessary to make such an opening. An evaluation of the fire resistance of a floor/ceiling assem- bly requires detailed knowledge of the materials and their arrangement. Special attention should be paid to the cover on structural steel elements and the condition of suspended ceil- ings and similar membranes.

However, once it is apparent that the roof is sound for ordinary use and can be retained in the rehabilitated building, it becomes necessary to evaluate the fire performance. The field investigator must measure the thickness and identify the types of materials which have been used. Be aware that there may be several layers of roof materials. Doors: Doors to stairways and hallways represent some of the most important fire elements to be considered within a build- ing. The uses of the spaces separated largely controls the level of fire performance necessary. Walls and doors enclos- ing stairways or elevator shafts would normally require a higher level of performance than between the bedroom and bath. The various uses are differentiated in Figure 1. Careful measurements of the thickness of door panels must be made, and the type of core material within each door must be determined. It should be noted whether doors have self-closing devices; the general operation of the doors should be checked. The latch should engage and the door should fit tightly in the frame. The hinges should be in good condition. If glass is used in the doors, it should be identified as either plain glass or wired glass mounted in either a wood or steel frame. Materials: The field investigator should be able to identify ordinary building materials. In situations where an unfamiliar material is found, a sample should be obtained. This sample should measure at least 10 cubic inches so that an ASTM E136 fire test can be conducted to determine if it is combusti- ble. Thickness: The thickness of all materials should be measured accurately since, under certain circumstances, the level of fire resistance is very sensitive to the material thickness. Condition: The method of attaching the various layers and facings to one another or to the supporting structural element should be noted under the appropriate building element. The “secureness” of the attachment and the general condition of the layers and facings should be noted here. Notes: The “Notes” column can be used for many purposes, but it might be a good idea to make specific references to other field notes or drawings. After the building survey is completed, the data collected must be analyzed. A suggested work sheet for organizing this information is given below as Figure 2. The required fire resistance and flame spread for each building element are normally established by the local build- ing or rehabilitation code. The fire performance of the exist- ing materials and assemblies should then be estimated, using FIGURE 2 PRELIMINARY EVALUATION WORKSHEET BUILDING ELEMENT REQUIRED FIRE RESISTANCE REQUIRED FLAME SPREAD ESTIMATED FIRE RESISTANCE ESTIMATED FLAME SPREAD METHOD OF UPGRADING ESTIMATED UPGRADED PROTECTION NOTES Exterior Bearing Walls Interior Bearing Walls Exterior Nonbearing Walls Interior Nonbearing Walls or Partitions: A B Structural Frame: Columns Beams Other Floor/Ceiling Structural System Spanning Roofs Doors (including frame and hardware): a) Enclosed vertical exitway b) Enclosed horizontal exitway c) Others Copyright © 2020 ICC.

If the fire perfor- mance of the existing building element(s) is equal to or greater than that required, the materials and assemblies may remain. If the fire performance is less than required, then cor- rective measures must be taken. The most common methods of upgrading the level of pro- tection are to either remove and replace the existing building element(s) or to repair and upgrade the existing materials and assemblies. Other fire protection measures, such as automatic sprinklers or detection and alarm systems, also could be con- sidered, though they are beyond the scope of this guideline. If the upgraded protection is still less than that required or deemed to be acceptable, additional corrective measures must be taken. This process must continue until an acceptable level of performance is obtained. 2.2 FIRE RESISTANCE OF EXISTING BUILDING ELEMENTS The fire resistance of the existing building elements can be estimated from the tables and histograms contained in the Appendix. The Appendix is organized first by type of build- ing element: walls, columns, floor/ceiling assemblies, beams, and doors. Within each building element, the tables are orga- nized by type of construction (e.g., masonry, metal, wood frame), and then further divided by minimum dimensions or thickness of the building element. A histogram precedes every table that has 10 or more entries. The X-axis measures fire resistance in hours; the Y- axis shows the number of entries in that table having a given level of fire resistance. The histograms also contain the loca- tion of each entry within that table for easy cross-referencing. The histograms, because they are keyed to the tables, can speed the preliminary investigation. For example, Table 1.3.2, Wood Frame Walls 4" to Less Than 6" Thick, contains 96 entries. Rather than study each table entry, the histogram shows that every wall assembly listed in that table has a fire resistance of less than 2 hours. If the building code required the wall to have 2 hours fire resistance, the designer, with a minimum of effort, is made aware of a problem that requires closer study. Suppose the code had only required a wall of 1 hour fire resistance. The histogram shows far fewer complying ele- ments (19) than noncomplying ones (77). If the existing assembly is not one of the 19 complying entries, there is a strong possibility the existing assembly is deficient. The his- tograms can also be used in the converse situation. If the existing assembly is not one of the smaller number of entries with a lower than required fire resistance, there is a strong possibility the existing assembly will be acceptable. At some point, the existing building component or assem- bly must be located within the tables. Otherwise, the fire resistance must be determined through one of the other tech- niques presented in the guideline. Locating the building com- ponent in the Appendix Tables not only guarantees the accuracy of the fire-resistance rating, but also provides a source of documentation for the building official. 2.3 EFFECTS OF PENETRATIONS IN FIRE-RESISTANT ASSEMBLIES There are often many features in existing walls or floor/ ceiling assemblies which were not included in the original certification or fire testing. The most common examples are pipes and utility wires passed through holes poked through an assembly. During the life of the building, many penetrations are added, and by the time a building is ready for rehabilita- tion it is not sufficient to just consider the fire resistance of the assembly as originally constructed. It is necessary to con- sider all penetrations and their relative impact upon fire per- formance. For instance, the fire resistance of the corridor wall may be less important than the effect of plain glass doors or transoms. In fact, doors are the most important single class of penetrations. A fully developed fire generates substantial quantities of heat and excess gaseous fuel capable of penetrating any holes which might be present in the walls or ceiling of the fire com- partment. In general, this leads to a severe degradation of the fire resistance of those building elements and to a greater potential for fire spread. This is particularly applicable to penetrations located high in a compartment where the posi- tive pressure of the fire can force the unburned gases through the penetration. Penetrations in a floor/ceiling assembly will generally completely negate the barrier qualities of the assembly and will lead to rapid spread of fire to the space above. It will not be a problem, however, if the penetrations are filled with non- combustible materials strongly fastened to the structure. The upper half of walls are similar to the floor/ceiling assembly in that a positive pressure can reasonably be expected in the top of the room, and this will push hot and/or burning gases through the penetration unless it is completely sealed. Building codes require doors installed in fire resistive walls to resist the passage of fire for a specified period of time. If the door to a fully involved room is not closed, a large plume of fire will typically escape through the doorway, pre- venting anyone from using the space outside the door while allowing the fire to spread. This is why door closers are so important. Glass in doors and transoms can be expected to rapidly shatter unless constructed of listed or approved wire glass in a steel frame. As with other building elements, pene- trations or nonrated portions of doors and transoms must be upgraded or otherwise protected. Table 5.1 in Section V of the Appendix contains 41 entries of doors mounted in sound tight-fitting frames. Part 3.4 below outlines one procedure for evaluating and possibly upgrading existing doors. 3 FINAL EVALUATION AND DESIGN SOLUTION The final evaluation begins after the rehabilitation project has reached the final design stage and the choice is made to keep certain archaic materials and assemblies in the rehabili- tated building. The final evaluation process is essentially a more refined and detailed version of the preliminary evalua- tion. The specific fire resistance and flame spread require- Copyright © 2020 ICC.

This may involve local building and fire officials reviewing the preliminary evalua- tion as depicted in Figures 1 and 2 and the field drawings and notes. When necessary, provisions must be made to upgrade existing building elements to provide the required level of fire performance. There are several approaches to design solutions that can make possible the continued use of archaic materials and assemblies in the rehabilitated structure. The simplest case occurs when the materials and assembly in question are found within the Appendix Tables and the fire performance proper- ties satisfy code requirements. Other approaches must be used, though, if the assembly cannot be found within the Appendix or the fire performance needs to be upgraded. These approaches have been grouped into two classes: exper- imental and theoretical. 3.1 THE EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH If a material or assembly found in a building is not listed in the Appendix Tables, there are several other ways to evalu- ate fire performance. One approach is to conduct the appro- priate fire test(s) and thereby determine the fire-related properties directly. There are a number of laboratories in the United States which routinely conduct the various fire tests. A current list can be obtained by writing the Center for Fire Research, National Bureau of Standards, Washington, D.C. 20234. The contract with any of these testing laboratories should require their observation of specimen preparation as well as the testing of the specimen. A complete description of where and how the specimen was obtained from the building, the transportation of the specimen, and its preparation for testing should be noted in detail so that the building official can be satisfied that the fire test is representative of the actual use. The test report should describe the fire test procedure and the response of the material or assembly. The laboratory usu- ally submits a cover letter with the report to describe the pro- visions of the fire test that were satisfied by the material or assembly under investigation. A building official will gener- ally require this cover letter, but will also read the report to confirm that the material or assembly complies with the code requirements. Local code officials should be involved in all phases of the testing process. The experimental approach can be costly and time con- suming because specimens must be taken from the building and transported to the testing laboratory. When a load bearing assembly has continuous reinforcement, the test specimen must be removed from the building, transported, and tested in one piece. However, when the fire performance cannot be determined by other means, there may be no alternative to a full-scale test. A “nonstandard” small-scale test can be used in special cases. Sample sizes need only be 10–25 square feet (0.93–2.3 m2), while full-scale tests require test samples of either 100 or 180 square feet (9.3 or 17 m2) in size. This small-scale test is best suited for testing nonload-bearing assemblies against thermal transmission only. 3.2 THE THEORETICAL APPROACH There will be instances when materials and assemblies in a building undergoing rehabilitation cannot be found in the Appendix Tables. Even where test results are available for more or less similar construction, the proper classification may not be immediately apparent. Variations in dimensions, loading conditions, materials, or workmanship may markedly affect the performance of the individual building elements, and the extent of such a possible effect cannot be evaluated from the tables. Theoretical methods being developed offer an alternative to the full-scale fire tests discussed above. For example, Sec- tion 4302(b) of the 1979 edition of the Uniform Building Code specifically allows an engineering design for fire resis- tance in lieu of conducting full-scale tests. These techniques draw upon computer simulation and mathematical modeling, thermodynamics, heat-flow analysis, and materials science to predict the fire performance of building materials and assem- blies. One theoretical method, known as the “Ten Rules of Fire Endurance Ratings,” was published by T. Z. Harmathy in the May, 1965 edition of Fire Technology. (35) Harmathy’s Rules provide a foundation for extending the data within the Appendix Tables to analyze or upgrade current as well as archaic building materials or assemblies. HARMATHY'S TEN RULES Rule 1: The “thermal”1 fire endurance of a construction consisting of a number of parallel layers is greater than the sum of the “thermal” fire endurances characteristic of the individual layers when exposed separately to fire. The minimum performance of an untested assembly can be estimated if the fire endurance of the individual compo- nents is known. Though the exact rating of the assembly can- not be stated, the endurance of the assembly is greater than the sum of the endurance of the components. When a building assembly or component is found to be deficient, the fire endurance can be upgraded by providing a protective membrane. This membrane could be a new layer of brick, plaster, or drywall. The fire endurance of this mem- brane is called the “finish rating.” Appendix Tables 1.5.1 and 1.5.2 contain the finish ratings for the most commonly employed materials. (See also the notes to Rule 2). The test criteria for the finish rating is the same as for the thermal fire endurance of the total assembly: average tem- perature increases of 250°F (121°C) above ambient or 325°F (163°C) above ambient at any one place with the membrane 1. The “thermal” fire endurance is the time at which the average temperature on the unexposed side of a construction exceeds its initial value by 250° when the other side is exposed to the “standard” fire specified by ASTM Test Method E-19.

The temperature is measured at the interface of the assembly and the protective membrane. Rule 2: The fire endurance of a construction does not decrease with the addition of further layers. Harmathy notes that this rule is a consequence of the pre- vious rule. Its validity follows from the fact that the addi- tional layers increase both the resistance to heat flow and the heat capacity of the construction. This, in turn, reduces the rate of temperature rise at the unexposed surface. This rule is not just restricted to “thermal” performance but affects the other fire test criteria: direct flame passage, cotton waste ignition, and load bearing performance. This means that certain restrictions must be imposed on the mate- rials to be added and on the loading conditions. One restric- tion is that a new layer, if applied to the exposed surface, must not produce additional thermal stresses in the construc- tion, i.e., its thermal expansion characteristics must be similar to those of the adjacent layer. Each new layer must also be capable of contributing enough additional strength to the assembly to sustain the added dead load. If this requirement is not fulfilled, the allowable live load must be reduced by an amount equal to the weight of the new layer. Because of these limitations, this rule should not be applied without careful consideration. Particular care must be taken if the material added is a good thermal insulator. Properly located, the added insulation could improve the “thermal” performance of the assembly. Improperly located, the insulation could block necessary ther- mal transmission through the assembly, thereby subjecting the structural elements to greater temperatures for longer periods of time, and could cause premature structural failure of the supporting members. Rule 3: The fire endurance of constructions containing continuous air gaps or cavities is greater than the fire endur- ance of similar constructions of the same weight, but contain- ing no air gaps or cavities. By providing for voids in a construction, additional resis- tances are produced in the path of heat flow. Numerical heat flow analyses indicate that a 10 to 15 percent increase in fire endurance can be achieved by creating an air gap at the mid- plane of a brick wall. Since the gross volume is also increased by the presence of voids, the air gaps and cavities have a ben- eficial effect on stability as well. However, constructions containing combustible materials within an air gap may be regarded as exceptions to this rule because of the possible development of burning in the gap. There are numerous examples of this rule in the tables. For instance: Table 1.1.4; Item W-8-M-82: Cored concrete masonry, nominal 8 inch thick wall with one unit in wall thickness and with 62 percent minimum of solid material in each unit, load bearing (80 PSI). Fire endurance: 21/2 hours. Table 1.1.5; Item W-10-M-11: Cored concrete masonry, nominal 10 inch thick wall with two units in wall thickness and a 2-inch (51 mm) air space, load bearing (80 PSI). The units are essentially the same as item W-8-M-82. Fire endur- ance: 31/2 hours. These walls show 1 hour greater fire endurance by the addition of the 2-inch (51 mm) air space. Rule 4: The farther an air gap or cavity is located from the exposed surface, the more beneficial is its effect on the fire endurance. Radiation dominates the heat transfer across an air gap or cavity, and it is markedly higher where the temperature is higher. The air gap or cavity is thus a poor insulator if it is located in a region which attains high temperatures during fire expo- sure. Some of the clay tile designs take advantage of these fac- tors. The double cell design, for instance, ensures that there is a cavity near the unexposed face. Some floor/ceiling assem- blies have air gaps or cavities near the top surface and these enhance their thermal performance. Rule 5: The fire endurance of a construction cannot be increased by increasing the thickness of a completely enclosed air layer. Harmathy notes that there is evidence that if the thickness of the air layer is larger than about 1/2 inch (12.7 mm), the heat transfer through the air layer depends only on the tem- perature of the bounding surfaces, and is practically indepen- dent of the distance between them. This rule is not applicable if the air layer is not completely enclosed, i.e., if there is a possibility of fresh air entering the gap at an appreciable rate. Rule 6: Layers of materials of low thermal conductivity are better utilized on that side of the construction on which fire is more likely to happen. As in Rule 4, the reason lies in the heat transfer process, though the conductivity of the solid is much less dependent on the ambient temperature of the materials. The low thermal conductor creates a substantial temperature differential to be established across its thickness under transient heat flow con- ditions. This rule may not be applicable to materials undergo- ing physico-chemical changes accompanied by significant heat absorption or heat evolution. Rule 7: The fire endurance of asymmetrical constructions depends on the direction of heat flow. This rule is a consequence of Rules 4 and 6, as well as other factors. This rule is useful in determining the relative protection of corridors and walls enclosing an exit stairway from the surrounding spaces. In addition, there are often situ- ations where a fire is more likely, or potentially more severe, from one side or the other. Rule 8: The presence of moisture, if it does not result in explosive spalling, increases the fire endurance. The flow of heat into an assembly is greatly hindered by the release and evaporation of the moisture found within cementitious materials such as gypsum, Portland cement, or magnesium oxychloride. Harmathy has shown that the gain in fire endurance may be as high as 8 percent for each percent (by volume) of moisture in the construction. It is the moisture chemically bound within the construction material at the time of manufacture or processing that leads to increased fire endurance. There is no direct relationship between the rela- Copyright © 2020 ICC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

Under certain conditions there may be explosive spalling of low permeability cementitious materials such as dense concrete. In general, one can assume that extremely old con- crete has developed enough minor cracking that this factor should not be significant. Rule 9: Load-supporting elements, such as beams, girders and joists, yield higher fire endurances when subjected to fire endurance tests as parts of floor, roof, or ceiling assemblies than they would when tested separately. One of the fire endurance test criteria is the ability of a load-supporting element to carry its design load. The element will be deemed to have failed when the load can no longer be supported. Failure usually results for two reasons. Some materials, particularly steel and other metals, lose much of their struc- tural strength at elevated temperatures. Physical deflection of the supporting element, due to decreased strength or thermal expansion, causes a redistribution of the load forces and stresses throughout the element. Structural failure often results because the supporting element is not designed to carry the redistributed load. Roof, floor, and ceiling assemblies have primary (e.g., beams) and secondary (e.g., floor joists) structural members. Since the primary load-supporting elements span the largest distances, their deflection becomes significant at a stage when the strength of the secondary members (including the roof or floor surface) is hardly affected by the heat. As the secondary members follow the deflection of the primary load-supporting element, an increasingly larger portion of the load is transferred to the secondary members. When load-supporting elements are tested separately, the imposed load is constant and equal to the design load throughout the test. By definition, no distribution of the load is possible because the element is being tested by itself. With- out any other structural members to which the load could be transferred, the individual elements cannot yield a higher fire endurance than they do when tested as parts of a floor, roof or ceiling assembly. Rule 10: The load-supporting elements (beams, girders, joists, etc.) of a floor, roof, or ceiling assembly can be replaced by such other load-supporting elements which, when tested separately, yielded fire endurances not less than that of the assembly. This rule depends on Rule 9 for its validity. A beam or girder, if capable of yielding a certain performance when tested separately, will yield an equally good or better perfor- mance when it forms a part of a floor, roof, or ceiling assem- bly. It must be emphasized that the supporting element of one assembly must not be replaced by the supporting element of another assembly if the performance of this latter element is not known from a separate (beam) test. Because of the load- reducing effect of the secondary elements that results from a test performed on an assembly, the performance of the sup- porting element alone cannot be evaluated by simple arithme- tic. This rule also indicates the advantage of performing separate fire tests on primary load-supporting elements. ILLUSTRATION OF HARMATHY’S RULES Harmathy provided one schematic figure which illustrated his Rules.1 It should be useful as a quick reference to assist in applying his Rules. EXAMPLE APPLICATION OF HARMATHY’S RULES The following examples, based in whole or in part upon those presented in Harmathy’s paper (35), show how the Rules can be applied to practical cases. Example 1 Problem A contractor would like to keep a partition which consists of a 33/4 inch (95 mm) thick layer of red clay brick, a 11/4 inch (32 mm) thick layer of plywood, and a 3/8 inch (9.5 mm) thick layer of gypsum wallboard, at a location where 2-hour fire endurance is required. Is this assembly capable of providing a 2-hour protection? Solution (1) This partition does not appear in the Appendix Tables. (2) Bricks of this thickness yield fire endurances of approximately 75 minutes (Table 1.1.2, Item W-4-M- 2). (3) The 1 1/4 inch (32 mm) thick plywood has a finish rat- ing of 30 minutes. (4) The 3/8 inch (9.5 mm) gypsum wallboard has a finish rating of 10 minutes. (5) Using the recommended values from the tables and applying Rule 1, the fire endurance (FI) of the assem- bly is larger than the sum of the individual layers, or FI > 75 + 30 + 10 = 115 minutes Discussion This example illustrates how the Appendix Tables can be uti- lized to determine the fire resistance of assemblies not explic- itly listed. Example 2 Problem (1) A number of buildings to be rehabilitated have the same type of roof slab which is supported with differ- ent structural elements. (2) The designer and contractor would like to determine whether or not this roof slab is capable of yielding a 2- hour fire endurance. According to a rigorous interpre- tation of ASTM E119, however, only the roof assem- bly, including the roof slab as well as the cover and the supporting elements, can be subjected to a fire test. 1.

(3) The designer and contractor believe this slab will yield a 2-hour fire endurance even without the cover, and any beam of at least 2-hour fire endurance will provide satisfactory support. Is it possible to obtain a classification for the slab separately? Solution (1) The answer to the question is yes. (2) According to Rule 10 it is not contrary to common sense to test and classify roofs and supporting ele- ments separately. Furthermore, according to Rule 2, if the roof slabs actually yield a 2-hour fire endurance, the endurance of an assembly, including the slabs, cannot be less than 2 hours. (3) The recommended procedure would be to review the tables to see if the slab appears as part of any tested roof or floor/ceiling assembly. The supporting system can be regarded as separate from the slab specimen, and the fire endurance of the assembly listed in the table is at least the fire endurance of the slab. There would have to be an adjustment for the weight of the roof cover in the allowable load if the test specimen did not contain a cover. (4) The supporting structure or element would have to have at least a 2-hour fire endurance when tested sepa- rately. Discussion If the tables did not include tests on assemblies which con- tained the slab, one procedure would be to assemble the roof slabs on any convenient supporting system (not regarded as part of the specimen) and to subject them to a load which, besides the usually required superimposed load, includes some allowances for the weight of the cover. Example 3 Problem A steel-joisted floor and ceiling assembly is known to have yielded a fire endurance of 1 hour and 35 minutes. At a cer- tain location, a 2-hour endurance is required.

Existing coats of paint would have to be removed and the surface properly prepared before the new plaster could be applied. Other materi- als (e.g., gypsum wallboard) could also be considered. (2) There may be other techniques based on other princi- ples, but an examination of the drawings would be necessary. Discussion (1) The additional plaster has at least three effects: a) The layer of plaster is increased and thus there is a gain of fire endurance (Rule 1). b) There is a gain due to shifting the air gap farther from the exposed surface (Rule 4). c) There is more moisture in the path of heat flow to the structural elements (Rules 7 and 8). (2) The increase in fire endurance would be at least as large as that of the finish rating for the added thick- ness of plaster. The combined effects in (1) above would further increase this by a factor of 2 or more, depending upon the geometry of the assembly. Example 4 Problem The fire endurance of item W-10-M-l in Table 1.1.5 is 4 hours. This wall consists of two 33/4 inch (95 mm) thick lay- ers of structural tiles separated by a 2-inch (51 mm) air gap and 3/4 inch (19 mm) Portland cement plaster or stucco on both sides. If the actual wall in the building is identical to item W-10-M-1 except that it has a 4-inch (102 mm) air gap, can the fire endurance be estimated at 5 hours? Solution The answer to the question is no for the reasons contained in Rule 5. Example 5 Problem In order to increase the insulating value of its precast roof slabs, a company has decided to use two layers of different concretes. The lower layer of the slabs, where the strength of the concrete is immaterial (all the tensile load is carried by the steel reinforcement), would be made with a concrete of low strength but good insulating value. The upper layer, where the concrete is supposed to carry the compressive load, would remain the original high strength, high thermal con- ductivity concrete. How will the fire endurance of the slabs be affected by the change? Solution The effect on the thermal fire endurance is beneficial: (1) The total resistance to heat flow of the new slabs has been increased due to the replacement of a layer of high thermal conductivity by one of low conductivity. (2) The layer of low conductivity is on the side more likely to be exposed to fire, where it is more effec- tively utilized according to Rule 6. The layer of low thermal conductivity also provides better protection for the steel reinforcement, thereby extending the time before reaching the temperature at which the creep of steel becomes significant. 3.3 “THICKNESS DESIGN” STRATEGY The “thickness design” strategy is based upon Harmathy’s Rules 1 and 2. This design approach can be used when the construction materials have been identified and measured, but the specific assembly cannot be located within the tables. The tables should be surveyed again for thinner walls of like material and construction detail that have yielded the desired or greater fire endurance. If such an assembly can be found, then the thicker walls in the building have more than enough fire resistance. The thickness of the walls thus becomes the principal concern. This approach can also be used for floor/ceiling assem- blies, except that the thickness of the cover1 and the slab become the central concern. The fire resistance of the untested assembly will be at least the fire resistance of an assembly listed in the table having a similar design but with less cover and/or thinner slabs. For other structural elements (e.g., beams and columns), the element listed in the table must also be of a similar design but with less cover thickness. 3.4 EVALUATION OF DOORS A separate section on doors has been included because the process for evaluation presented below differs from those suggested previously for other building elements. The impact of unprotected openings or penetrations in fire resistant assemblies has been detailed in Part 2.3 above. It is sufficient to note here that openings left unprotected will likely lead to failure of the barrier under actual fire conditions. For other types of building elements (e.g., beams, col- umns), the Appendix Tables can be used to establish a mini- mum level of fire performance. The benefit to rehabilitation is that the need for a full-scale fire test is then eliminated. For doors, however, this cannot be done. The data contained in Appendix Table 5.1, Resistance of Doors to Fire Exposure, can only provide guidance as to whether a successful fire test is even feasible. For example, a door required to have 1 hour fire resistance is noted in the tables as providing only 5 minutes. The likeli- hood of achieving the required 1 hour, even if the door is upgraded, is remote. The ultimate need for replacement of the doors is reasonably clear, and the expense and time needed for testing can be saved. However, if the performance docu- mented in the table is near or in excess of what is being required, then a fire test should be conducted. The test docu- 1.

The table entries cannot be used as the sole proof of per- formance of the door in question because there are too many unknown variables which could measurably affect fire per- formance. The wood may have dried over the years; coats of flammable varnish could have been added. Minor deviations in the internal construction of a door can result in significant differences in performance. Methods of securing inserts in panel doors can vary. The major non-destructive method of analysis, an x-ray, often cannot provide the necessary detail. It is for these, and similar reasons, that a fire test is still felt to be necessary. It is often possible to upgrade the fire performance of an existing door. Sometimes, “as is” and modified doors are evaluated in a single series of tests when failure of the unmodified door is expected. Because doors upgraded after an initial failure must be tested again, there is a potential sav- ings of time and money. The most common problems encountered are plain glass, panel inserts of insufficient thickness, and improper fit of a door in its frame. The latter problem can be significant because a fire can develop a substantial positive pressure, and the fire will work its way through otherwise innocent-looking gaps between door and frame. One approach to solving these problems is as follows. The plain glass is replaced with approved or listed wire glass in a steel frame. The panel inserts can be upgraded by adding an additional layer of material. Gypsum wallboard is often used for this purpose. Intumescent paint applied to the edges of the door and frame will expand when exposed to fire, forming an effective seal around the edges. This seal, coupled with the generally even thermal expansion of a wood door in a wood frame, can prevent the passage of flames and other fire gases. Figure 3 below illustrates these solutions. Because the interior construction of a door cannot be determined by a visual inspection, there is no absolute guar- antee that the remaining doors are identical to the one(s) removed from the building and tested. But the same is true for doors constructed today, and reason and judgment must be applied. Doors that appear identical upon visual inspection can be weighed. If the weights are reasonably close, the doors can be assumed to be identical and therefore provide the same level of fire performance. Another approach is to fire test more than one door or to dismantle doors selected at random to see if they had been constructed in the same manner. Orig- inal building plans showing door details or other records showing that doors were purchased at one time or obtained from a single supplier can also be evidence of similar con- struction.

The investigator should carefully check the condition and fit of the door and frame, and for frames out of plumb or separating from the wall. Door closers, latches, and hinges must be examined to see that they function properly and are tightly secured. If these are in order and the door and frame have passed a full-scale test, there can be a reasonable basis for allowing the existing doors to remain. 4 SUMMARY This section summarizes the various approaches and design solutions discussed in the preceding sections of the guideline. The term “structural system” includes: frames, beams, columns, and other structural elements. “Cover” is a protective layer(s) of materials or membrane which slows the flow of heat to the structural elements. It cannot be stressed too strongly that the fire endurance of actual building ele- ments can be greatly reduced or totally negated by removing part of the cover to allow pipes, ducts, or conduits to pass through the element. This must be repaired in the rehabilita- tion process. The following approaches shall be considered equivalent. 4.1 The fire resistance of a building element can be estab- lished from the Appendix Tables. This is subject to the fol- lowing limitations: The building element in the rehabilitated building shall be constructed of the same materials with the same nominal dimensions as stated in the tables. All penetrations in the building element or its cover for services such as electricity, plumbing, and HVAC shall be packed with noncombustible cementitious materials and so fixed that the packing material will not fall out when it loses its water of hydration. The effects of age and wear and tear shall be repaired so that the building element is sound and the original thickness of all components, particularly covers and floor slabs, is maintained. This approach essentially follows the approach taken by model building codes. The assembly must appear in a table either published in or accepted by the code for a given fire- resistance rating to be recognized and accepted. 4.2 The fire resistance of a building element which does not explicitly appear in the Appendix Tables can be established if one or more elements of same design but different dimen- sions have been listed in the tables. For walls, the existing element must be thicker than the one listed. For floor/ceiling assemblies, the assembly listed in the table must have the same or less cover and the same or thinner slab constructed of the same material as the actual floor/ceiling assembly. For other structural elements, the element listed in the table must be of a similar design but with less cover thickness. The fire resistance in all instances shall be the fire resistance recom- mended in the table. This is subject to the following limita- tions: The actual element in the rehabilitated building shall be constructed of the same materials as listed in the table. Only the following dimensions may vary from those spec- ified: for walls, the overall thickness must exceed that specified in the table; for floor/ceiling assemblies, the thickness of the cover and the slab must be greater than, or equal to, that specified in the table; for other structural ele- ments, the thickness of the cover must be greater than that specified in the table. All penetrations in the building element or its cover for services such as electricity, plumbing, or HVAC shall be packed with noncombustible cementitious materials and so fixed that the packing material will not fall out when it loses its water of hydration. The effects of age and wear and tear shall be repaired so that the building element is sound and the original thick- ness of all components, particularly covers and floor slabs, is maintained. This approach is an application of the “thickness design” concept presented in Part 3.3 of the guideline. There should be many instances when a thicker building element was uti- lized than the one listed in the Appendix Tables. This guide- line recognizes the inherent superiority of a thicker design. Note: “thickness design” for floor/ceiling assemblies and structural elements refers to cover and slab thickness rather than total thickness. The “thickness design” concept is essentially a special case of Harmathy’s Rules (specifically Rules 1 and 2). It should be recognized that the only source of data is the Appendix Tables. If other data are used, it must be in connec- tion with the approach below. 4.3 The fire resistance of building elements can be estab- lished by applying Harmathy’s Ten Rules of Fire Resistance Ratings as set forth in Part 3.2 of the guideline. This is subject to the following limitations: The data from the tables can be utilized subject to the lim- itations in 4.2 above. Test reports from recognized journals or published papers can be used to support data utilized in applying Harma- thy’s Rules. Calculations utilizing recognized and well established computational techniques can be used in applying Harma- thy’s Rules. These include, but are not limited to, analysis of heat flow, mechanical properties, deflections, and load bearing capacity. Copyright © 2020 ICC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

Histograms precede any table with 10 or more entries. The use and interpretation of these histograms is explained in Part 2 of the guideline. The tables are in a format similar to that found in the model building codes. The following example, taken from an entry in Table 1.1.2, best explains the table for- mat. 1. Item Code: The item code consists of a four place series in the general form w-x-y-z in which each member of the series denotes the following: w = Type of building element (e.g., W=Walls; F=Floors, etc.) x = The building element thickness rounded down to the nearest 1-inch increment (e.g., 45/8inches is rounded off to 4 inches) y = The general type of material from which the building element is constructed (e.g., M=Masonry; W=Wood, etc.) z = The item number of the particular building element in a given table The item code shown in the example W-4-M-50 denotes the following: W = Wall, as the building element 4 = Wall thickness in the range of 4 inches (102 mm) to less than 5 inches (127 mm) M = Masonry construction 50 = The 50th entry in Table 1.1.2 2. The specific name or heading of this column identifies the dimensions which, if varied, has the greatest impact on fire resistance. The critical dimension for walls, the example here, is thickness. It is different for other building elements (e.g., depth for beams; mem- brane thickness for some floor/ceiling assemblies). The table entry is the named dimension of the building element measured at the time of actual testing to within ±1/8 inch (3.2 mm) tolerance. The thickness tab- ulated includes facings where facings are a part of the wall construction. 3. Construction Details: The construction details provide a brief description of the manner in which the building element was constructed. 4. Performance: This heading is subdivided into two col- umns. The column labeled “Load” will either list the load that the building element was subjected to during the fire test or it will contain a note number which will list the load and any other significant details. If the building element was not subjected to a load during the test, this column will contain “n/a,” which means “not applicable.” The second column under performance is labeled “Time” and denotes the actual fire endurance time observed in the fire test. 5. Reference Number: This heading is subdivided into three columns: Pre-BMS-92; BMS-92; and Post- BMS-92. The table entry under this column is the number in the Bibliography of the original source ref- erence for the test data. 6. Notes: Notes are provided at the end of each table to allow a more detailed explanation of certain aspects of the test. In certain tables the notes given to this col- umn have also been listed under the “Construction Details” and/or “Load” columns. 7. Rec Hours: This column lists the recommended fire endurance rating, in hours, of a building element. In some cases, the recommended fire endurance will be less than that listed under the “Time” column. In no case is the “Rec Hours” greater than given in the “Time” column.

Notes: 1. Tested at NBS under ASA Spec. No. 43-1934 (ASTM C19-53) except that hose stream testing where carried out was run on test specimens exposed for full test duration, not for a reduced period as is contemporarily done. 2. Failure by thermal criteria—maximum temperature rise. 3. For clay tile walls, unless the source or density of the clay can be positively identified or determined, it is suggested that the lowest hourly rating for the fire endurance of a clay tile partition of that thickness be followed. Identified sources of clay showing longer fire endurance can lead to longer time recommendations. 4. See Note 55 for construction and design details for clay tile walls. 5.

Notes: 1. Failure mode—local temperature rise—back face. 2. Three-fourths inch or 1 inch channel framing—hot-rolled or strip-steel channels. 3. Reinforcement is 4-inch square mesh of No. 6 wire welded at intersections (no channels). 4. Ratings are for any usual type of nonload-bearing metal framing providing 2 inches (or more) air space. General Note: The construction details of the wall assemblies are as complete as the source documentation will permit. Data on the method of attachment of facings and the gauge of steel studs was provided when known. The cross-sectional area of the steel stud can be computed, thereby permitting a reasoned estimate of actual loading conditions. For load-bearing assemblies, the maximum allowable stress for the steel studs has been provided in the table “Notes.” More often, it is the thermal properties of the facing materials, rather than the specific gauge of the steel, that will determine the degree of fire resistance. This is particularly true for nonbearing wall assemblies. ITEM CODE THICKNESS CONSTRUCTION DETAILS PERFORMANCE REFERENCE NUMBER NOTES REC.

Notes: 1. Failure mode—local back face temperature rise. 2. Ratings are for any usual type of nonbearing metal framing providing a minimum 2 inches air space. 3. Facing materials secured to lightweight steel studs not less than 3 inches deep. 4. Rating based on loading to develop a maximum stress of 7270 psi for net area of each stud. 5. Spacing of steel studs must be sufficient to develop adequate rigidity in the metal-lath or gypsum-plaster base. 6. As per Note 4 but load/stud not to exceed 5120 psi. General Note: The construction details of the wall assemblies are as complete as the source documentation will permit. Data on the method of attachment of facings and the gauge of steel studs was provided when known. The cross sectional area of the steel stud can be computed, thereby permitting a reasoned estimate of actual loading conditions. For load-bearing assemblies, the maximum allowable stress for the steel studs has been provided in the table “Notes.” More often, it is the thermal properties of the facing materials, rather than the specific gauge of the steel, that will determine the degree of fire resistance.

Notes: 1. Load concentrated at mid span. 2. Achieved 6 hour fire rating (Grade “A,” British). 3. 5. Section 43.147 of the 1979 edition of the Uniform Building Code Standards provides: “A restrained condition in fire tests, as used in this standard, is one in which expansion at the supports of a load-carrying element resulting from the effects of the fire is resisted by forces external to the element. An unrestrained condition is one in which the load-carrying element is free to expand and rotate at its support.” “Restraint in buildings is defined as follows: Floor and roof assemblies and individual beams in buildings shall be considered restrained when the surrounding or supporting structure is capable of resisting the thermal expansion throughout the range of anticipated elevated temperatures. Construction not complying . . . is assumed to be free to rotate and expand and shall be considered as unrestrained.” “Restraint may be provided by the lateral stiffness of supports for floor and roof assemblies and intermediate beams forming part of the assembly. In order to develop restraint, connections must adequately transfer thermal thrusts to such supports. The rigidity of adjoining panels or structures shall be considered in assessing the capability of a structure to resist therm expansion.” Because it is difficult to determine whether an existing building’s structural system is capable of providing the required restraint, the lower hourly ratings of a similar but unrestrained assembly have been recommended. 6.

Notes: 1. All door frames were of standard lumber construction. 2. Wood door stop protected by asbestos millboard. 3. Wood door stop protected by sheet metal. 4. Door frame protected with sheet metal and weather strip. 5. Surface painted with intumescent coating. 6. Door edge sheet metal protected. 7. Door edge intumescent paint protected. 8. Formal steel frame and door stop. 9. Door opened into furnace at 12 feet. 10. Similar door opened into furnace at 12 feet. 11. The doors reported in these tests represent the type contemporaries used as 20-minute solid-core wood doors. The test results demonstrate the necessity of having wall anchored metal frames, minimum cleaners possible between door, frame and stops. They also indicate the utility of long throw latches and the possible use of intumescent paints to seal doors to frames in event of a fire. 12. Minimum working clearance and good latch closure are absolute necessities for effective containment for all such working door assemblies. 13. Based on British tests. 14.
