Building Board of Appeals Minutes May 8, 1990 Page 3 Mr. Smith was not in attendance at the meeting. However, the Board felt that the case could be addressed without the applicants presence. According to the Departments records, the violation was noted by Mr. Robert Graham, Building Inspector, while performing an inspection of a garage on the same site. The applicant represented to Mr. Graham that he was not aware that a permit was required for the alteration. After discussion it was moved by Mr. Jones, supported by Mr. Kamm that the request be approved. Motion carried unanimously. In support of this decision, the Board makes the following findings of fact. 1. The ceiling height exception does not adversely affect the health, safety and welfare of the occupants. 2. As a condition for approval , smoke detection will be required in accordance with Chapter 12 of the U.B.C. 1988 Edition. Appeal #90-007: Hall-Springtree Associates, 3029 Beau Jardin Dr. An Application for appeal was filed by Mr. Scott Kenney on behalf of Hall--Springtree Association, 3029 Beau Jardin Dr. , Lansing, Michigan. The application, if approved, would allow, the continued use of guardrails on exterior balconies at Springtree Apartments which are 30" in height. Second, the management takes exception to the instal- lation of handrails on the primary entrance stairways. On or about November 15, 1989, Randall Eberbach, Code Compliance Officer, issued a Correction Notice for several buildings at the Springtree Complex which is located on Beau Jardin Dr. The violation notice was issued pursuant to the requirements of Section 1460.20(2)(J) of the Title Six Housing Code, City of Lansing. Mr. Eberbach declared the buildings to be substandard since no handrails were provided on the primary entrance stairways and since the guard- rails on the exterior balconies are 30" in height. The applicant contends that the buildings were constructed between 1968 and 1971. At the time of construction, and the issuance of the Occupancy Permit, there were no handrails leading to the entrance of the building. The entrances have not been altered since construc- tion and the property has been subject to annual inspections through- out its history. At no time was the complex cited for lack of handrails. Building Board of Appeals Minutes May 8, 1990 Page 4 Second, in 1987, the applicant began an extensive plan to repair all balconies at the request of the Building Safety Division. The work involved replacement of rotted structural members, replacement of rotted decking and addition of vertical supports as necessary. It is the applicants position that several thousand dollars has been expended to repair the balconies under the supervision of the Building Safety Division, and at no time did the Building Inspector .require alteration to the guardrail . According to the Department's file, the building permits issued to Springtree Apartments were for repair work per the requirements of Section 104(d) of the Building Code (U.B.C. 1988 Edition) . Since the work was only repair and maintenance, the Building Inspector did not require the replacement of the existing iron railing. Randy Eberbach, Code Compliance Officer for the City of Lansing, Building Safety Division, explained the City's rental inspection program. Mr. Eberbach stated that the program requires that all rental dwellings be inspected on a two year cycle. Scott Kenney, Springtree Apartments Representative, stated that management has spent thousands of dollars to improve the safety as well as the esthetics of the balconies under the supervision of the Lansing -Building Safety Division. He did not feel that 'it is justifiable to spend additional money to install new guardrails on the balconies, and handrails on the entry stairways. Chairman Stuckman stated that a condition exists that allows a potential hazard that must be corrected. It is, however, unfortunate that enforcement did not occur earlier. After general discussion, it was moved by Mr. Jones, supported by Mr. Throop to deny the appeal . The guardrails on the decks and the handrail at the primary entrances shall be installed in accordance with the following schedule: Handrails and guardrails shall be installed in accordance with the requirements of the U.B.C. 1988 Edition for the following buildings in the year indicated. 1990 1. 2900 Beau Jardin 3. 2814 Beau Jardin 2. 2910 Beau Jardin 4. 2800 Beau Jardin 1991 1. 4904 Bell Chase 4. 2911 E.

In support of this decision, the Board makes the following findings of fact: 1. According to the record, the housing units in questions were constructed between 1968 and 1971. The buildings were apparently constructed under the requirements of the 1967 Building Code. Section 1714 of the code states that guardrails shall be not, less than 36" in height. A review of the 1964 and 1970 Codes also represent that guardrail heights were consistent with the 1965 Code and at no time were 30" rails authorized around decks or porches. 2. A code review of the requirements for exterior handrails was also researched. It was determined that handrails were a code requirement at the time the units were constructed. 3. A potentially hazardous situation exsists on the site which must be corrected even though it appears that the violation was not cited by the City of Lansing, Building Safety Division. There being no other business before the Board, and no public comment. Mr. Jones moved the meeting be adjourned, supported by Mr. Kamm. Motion carried.

The meeting was called to order by Chairman Richard Stuckman at 2:04 p.m. with a roll call showing the following members present: Members Present: j Richard Stuckman, President Richard Jones, Vice President Frank Throop, Member Randall Kamm, Member Joe Wilcox, Member Staff Present: James W. Kzeski , Director of \, Jack Nelson, Recording Secretary Dennis George, Fire Inspector On a motion by Mr. Jones, supported by M December 12, 1989, were approved. The following appeals were addressed by Appeal #90-001 : Hawaiian Paradise The subject of the hearing was the consideration of a request from Mr. Glenn C. Harr, Vice President, Hawaiian Paradise, Suite #133, 1900 South Cedar Street (old Walter French Junior High) . Mr. Harr requested authorization to allow the use of the existing kitchen in the facility for a catering business. Hawaiian Paradise has occupied the facility for approximately 12 months. The business is currently licensed by the Michigan Department of Agriculture to operate a seafood repackaging operation. Fresh fish and seafood is flown to Michigan and repackaged to deliver to accounts in the mid-Michigan area. The business also sells tropical flowers, kona coffee and macadamia nuts. �NI5Ntl� 'a532� i i.:- 5 Building Board of Appeals Minutes February 20; 1990 Page 2 Mr. Harr stated that he would like to expand the operation to include catering. The operation would not include any type of equipment that would produce excessive heat or produce grease-laden vapors. A convection oven is currently utilized for baking. Hawaiian Paradise also prepares fruit and vegetable trays with main course entrees that are either baked or grilled on-site with charcoal grills. The only purpose of the exhaust ventilation system would be to pull heat from the kitchen area. The Buiding Safety Division presented the following information: The existing kichen does not comply with current Mechanical and Building Code requirements as follows: Kitchen Ventilation System (U.M.C. 1988 Edition, pg. 133) Section 2002 (a) (b) (c) (d) (f) and (e) Hood System (U.M.C. 1988 Edition) 2003 (b) (c) (g) Building Code Violations Table 5-A, 504(c) , 4306(J) Chairman Stuckman requested comments from the Fire Prevention Bureau. Dennis George, Fire Inspector, stated that the Fire Prevention Bureau had no objection to the variance as along as the corridor which leads to the exterior court is not used as a means of egress for the building. After discussion, Mr. Jones moved, supported by Mr. Wilcox, to approve this case. The approval is .subject to the following condi- tions. 1. The main corridor within the building which leads to this tenant space and to the court shall not be used as means of egress for the building. 2. The variance is only issued to Hawaiian Paradise for their use only and is not transferable. 3. Tenant shall not use a deep fryer or grill , or any other type of equipment that would produce excessive heat or grease build- up in the ventilation system. 4. The tenant shall authorize the Fire Prevention Bureau and the Building Safety Division to perform unannounced periodic inspec- tions of the tenant space. r•.rr„-..,.`;.s--^-M:4.:- 1 - »'s^r.

The corridor system which the unprotected duct passes through will not be utilized as a means of egress for the building. 2. The tenant will not be authorized to use the hood system for any quipment which produces excessive heat or discharges grease-laden vapors. 3. The Fire Prevention and Building Safety Divisions will monitor the facility on a periodic basis to ensure continued compliance. Appeal #90-002: Dale Goodrich, Lansing Reinvestment An Application for variance has been filed by Mr. Dale Goodrich, 209 Church Street, Potterville, Michigan, on behalf of Lansing Reinvestment. The applicant seeks relief from the enforcing officer's field correction notice which required that bedroom egress windows comply with Section 1204 of the Uniform Building Code. Mr. Goodrich stated that a Building Permit was acquired on November 30, 1989, for interior remodeling and siding of an existing single family residence at 228 Hill Street. The value of the alteration was approximately $10,000.00. All windows in the house were replaced with a vinyl replacement windows which were installed in the existing window openings. On or about January 4, 1990, Mr. Jon Wadsworth, Building Inspector, conducted an . inspection and noted that the bedroom windows did not comply with Building Code requirements. Mr. Goodrich also stated that his appeal has been amended to request a variance for the northwest bedroom only. The windows in the rest of the bedrooms have been changed. The net clear opening of the window in question is 29" wide by 23" in height. The code requires a net clear width of 20" and height of 24" and a clear opening of at least 5.7 sq. ft. In this case the net opening is 4.63 sq. ft. Chairman Stuckman requested staff comments: Dennis George, Fire Inspector, stated that -:the primary reason for the net clear opening is to afford sufficient clear area for a fireman to enters the bedroom with equipment. Inspector George indicated that the window dimension would not prevent a fireman from entering the building through the window. Building Board of Appeals Minutes February 20, 1990 Page 4 After discussion, Mr. Throop moved, supported by Mr. Jones, to approve the variance for the window in the northwest bedroom only. Motion carried unanimously. In support of this decision, the Board makes the following findings of fact: 1. The window area and clear height will not, in the Boards opinion, adversely effect fire fighting rescue. 2. The net clear height requirement is 24" . The appeal request a variance of only 1" in height and 1.1 sq. ft. in area. The Board feels that the variance request is the minimum necessary to alleviate the situation. 3. The window installed was in the existing opening and no framing was necessary to accommodate the new window. Appeal #90-003: Victor Office Center An Application for a variance was filed by Mr. Peter Holtz, Architect, Victor Design, on behalf of Gentilozzi Real Estate and Management Company, One Michigan Avenue, Suite 200, Lansing, Michigan. The request, if granted, would allow the use of fusible link devise to mount window blinds on the west side of the new Victor—Office Building which is locacted on the Northwest corner of Ottawa and North Washington Square. The Building Board of Appeals previsouly addressed a request by this Applicant on December 13, 1988. The Applicant at that time requested the use of unrated glazing in the west wall of the Victor building. Protected openings would have been required due to the proximity of the building to the property line. The Board granted the variance, but predicated its approval upon compliance with several conditions. Condition #3 stated that " . . . curtain rods, blinds or other window treatments shall not be positioned to adversely effect the sprinklers which were required to protect the glazing. " The Applicant now wants to install window blinds on the windows with the fusible link system. Since this request effects a previous board action, the Department is requesting disposition by the Board. Mr. Holtz presented the case to the Board stating that a similar appeal was granted by the Building Board of Appeals for the City of East Lansing. Mr. Holtz also stated that the fusible links ar UL rated to hold up to 20# and release at 1350 . In the event of a fire these links would break the blinds, and in total would drop away from the window before the sprinklers iwere actuated. This system would allow the same degree of protection while allowing tenants to install window treatment for privacy and cooling from the afternoon west sun. Building Board of Appeals Minutes February 20, 1990 Page 5 Chairman Stuckman requested staff comments: Inspector Dennis George stated that the sprinkler heads which protect the glazing are quick response heads which could discharge prior to the release of the fusible links for the blinds. There is a time factor delay on the fusible link which does not occur on the sprinkler. If the blinds did not fall , the windows would not be cooled by the sprinkler system. This scenario would be critical if we had an exterior fire exposure from the Ingham Building. After discussion, Mr. Throop, supported by Mr. Kamm, moved that the request be denied. Motion carried unanimously. In support of this decision the Board makes the following findings of fact: 1. It is imperative that there are no obstructions which will adversely affect the quick response sprinklers and their ability to cool and protect the exterior wall glazing on the west side of the building. The Applicant did not substantiate that the proposed system would function under fire conditions to the degree necessary to authorize the variance. 2. The issuance of the variance may substantially deviate from performance required by the code in relation to fire safety and protection of the exterior glazing since-. the blinds may impede the sprinkler system. TABLED APPEALS: Appeal #89-004: Grand Tower On May 9, 1989, the Board tabled Appeal #89-004 in order to afford time to the City of Lansing and Gentilozzi Real Estate to consumate a written agreement between the parties, concerning the conveyance of property for the construction of the Grand Tower Office building. The Board had stated that the variance would be approved if the following conditions were complied with. The Board of Appeals recommended that language be drafted as a part of the agreement between the parties which would define the public access easement as not adversely effecting the construction of the Grand Tower building; that is to say for purposes of construction the City would not treat the easement as a public way. Second, Gentilozzi Real Estate grant an easement to the Black and Tan Restaurant/Bar, which is located directly South of the proposed Grand Tower, to allow ingress/egress across. the property line. • .,..3,5.: ;,2� �.;�A.w..`liF...... - .`+r.

At the meeting the final terms of the property settlement were reviewed and approved on a motion by Mr. Throop, supported by Mr. Jones. Motion carried unanimously. Appeal #89-005: Main Street Day Care (Reconsideration Request) The subject of the hearing was a variance request from the Main Street Child Care Facility located at 1715 W. Main Street. The purpose of the request is to seek authority from the Building Board of Appeals to utilize the second floor of the building for day care purposes. Section 802(c) of the Uniform Building Code, 1988 Edition, requires that day care shall not be located above the first story unless the building is totally fire suppressed. This case was previously denied by the Board .in December, 1989. The Applicant has amended the request and seeks a rehearing on the case. The Applicant is proposing to install smoke detectors on the first floor of the building and install sprinklers in the exit corridors also on the first floor, and sprinkle the entire second floor. This proposal deviates from the original proposal in that fire suppression is now proposed in the first floor exit corridors. Mr. Russell Hinkle, Architect, Stein, Hinkle, Dawe, Wood and Johnson, presented the case on behalf of the day care center. Mr. Hinkle represented that the first floor was remodeled two years ago and requiring a sprinkler system on the first floor would adversely effect the existing construction as well as disrupt the operation. Mr. Hinkle also stated that the second floor would be utilized for latch key programs , consequently, the children occupying the area are of sufficient age to negotiate the stairshaft. Mr. James Kzeski presented the position of the Building Safety Division. He stated that there are several positive attributes of the building which may be viewed as equating with the requirement for total fire suppression. Those items which exceed minimum code requirements are as follows: ''�''�.t 4."'.r_;T. ?fir--. �.!:'•.' _ ..'3� -�. � .. -.... + rnr "�_... .. .., _ �'�r=�^=,z"-ec-s."_..''m.'_s;,,.�''."<' Building Board of Appeals Minutes February 20, 1990 Page 7 A smoke detection system would be installed in the entire building. The building exceeds the minimum construction type. A rated fire separation will be provided between the floors. The second floor is provided with three independent exits and the second floor will be utilized for latch key children only (2nd, 3rd, and 4th graders) . Dennis George, Fire Inspector, voiced his objection to the proposal indicating that fire suppression requirements cannot be traded for other code items. After discussion Mr. Throop moved, supported by Mr. Jones, that the variance be approved as requested. Motion carried unanimously. The variance is subject to compliance with the following conditions: 1. The entire second floor, all corridors and stairshafts shall be equipped with a fire suppression system installed in compliance with N.F.P.A. requirements. The system shall be installed by a licensed sprinkler installer. Plan shall be approved by the Fire Prevention Bureau 2. The mechanical shafts which are utilized as an air plenum shall be sealed at the floor system with an assembly which will afford a one-hour fire-resistant barrier. 3. Only latch key children will be authorized to occupy the-second floor, e.g. 2nd, 3rd, 4th grade or older. This decision is based upon the following findings of fact: 1. All class rooms on the first floor, except one, has direct exiting to the outside. Second, the second floor has three stairshafts which exit directly to the exterior of the building. These attributes will ensure safe and expeditious exiting from the building. 2. The construction of the building exceeds the minimum construc- tion type. The increase in fire resistance will equate favorably with the lack of fire suppression on the first floor class rooms. 3. The variance approval will limit the 'age of children on the second floor to those capable of exiting the building without continued supervision.

This is contrary to Section 3305 of the Lansing Uniform Building Code. Arguments in support of this appeal: _See at tarhed Fxh i h i t A_ Si ned w `- �c� "�- Date AC]JON TAKEN BY THE BOARD Approved: If ridge frames with safety glazing is used with the Fire Department's approved water curtain sprinklers installed on both sides of glazing areas in each corridor and skylight areas and to relocate door "D" in South office area to window opening area of East wall . i EXHIBIT A • The proposed project consists of remodeling an existing building, which has been used primarily for a truck and auto maintenance shop with a small office/retail portion on the front. The front portion of the building is proposed to be torn down and . reconstructed for a retail suite, and the balance of the existing building is to be used for medical offices.' The plans for the remodeling were prepared in late 1980 and early 1981. Due to economic and other conditions, the owner decided not to proceed with the remodeling and construction. He now wishes to proceed with the reconstruction of the existing building. At the time the original plans were prepared, we had worked with the Plan Reviewer for the City of Lansing. It was their interpretation that because each suite was small enough to require only one exit, and because each suite had a direct exit to the exterior, that the corridor and atrium area would not have to be fire rated. The current interpretation of the Code would require the corridor walls and ceiling to be one hour rated, more specifically would be the corridor entering into the two atriums in the rear portion of the building. These two areas are separated with a fire wall, and each area is divided into four small office or medical office suites. The site plan is such that the building is very linear along the westerly side of the property, with all of the parking on the east side of the building. Because of the east/west depth of the building, it was impossible to make direct entry suites long and narrow off from the east wall in the parking area. The concept then was to Penetrate into the building with a small central atrium area, with glass walls from the atrium to the reception/waiting areas for each of the four offices. This would allow natural light to penetrate into the waiting areas as opposed to areas which would have no windows servicing them, this is a very integral part of the entire design concept. To one hour rate these glass areas would require changing from aluminum framing to steel framing and wired glass, and severly reducing the amount of glass area to 25% of wall area adjacent to each of the suites. This would minimize the glass to the point of making the atrium almost useless in terms of natural light to the waiting/reception areas and view to the atrium. Changing to the steel frames would also require very difficult and special frames, in that the glazing runs vertically to approximately 8' and then slopes at an angle 2' up to the ceiling line. This was done to allow more view and light penetration to the offices. The present plans are detailed with the glazing areas being aluminum framed and aluminum entrance doors. 1 A 1 We would propose as a substitute to the Code, providing sprinkler heads on both sides of the glass and door areas. The solid walls and ceilings would all be fire rated in the entry corridor and within the atrium itself. Sprinklers would not normally be required by the Code. We would use a sprinkler head type which would in effect give us a fire curtain and cool the wall, more specifically the aluminum wall and glass areas on both sides, to reduce the possibility of fire spreading from any one of the four individual offices in each cluster, into the atrium and exiting corridor. In addition of course to this exiting corridor, we have a direct exit out from each of the offices, so each office has a second means of egress. In addition to the request for the change in the wall construction, we would also respectfully request a change in the length of the corridor. One of the corridors essentially meets the 20' dead end corridor requirement of the Code, the southerly one exceeds this by approximately 5' . From the furthest door would be 25' for one of the suites, the other three suites exiting would be within the 20' requirement. We feel that this is very close to meeting the Code and with the addition of sprinklers on both sides of the wall, and in effect also sprinkling the atrium area itself, that this would not be an additional hazard to the occupants of the building. We hereby respectfully request your granting of our appeal for change of the Code. • 2 19 Filed - 41 Appeal No. 0S0 Hearing Date City of Lansing BUILDING BOARD OF APPEALS Lower Level, Washington Square Annex 119 North Washington Square Lansing, Michigan 48933 Telephone: (517) 483-4355 (Please type or print clearly) The Building Board of Appeals meets the second Tuesday of each month.at 2:00 p.m, in the Conference Room of the Building Safety Division.Appeals,accompanied by a non-refundable fee of$25.00, must be on file with the Building Safety Division 14 days before the meeting date Make checks payable to the City of Lansing.

Washington Square Lansing, Mi. 48933 Reference: INGHAM MEDICAL CENTER 401 West Greenlawn Computer Room Renovations Gentlemen: On behalf of the Ingham Medical Center, we are hereby requesting a variance in the 1982 Uniform Building Code - Section 3306, Paragraph W . • The Code states: "Stairways serving an occupant load of 50 or more shall be not less than 44" in width. Stairways serving an occupant load of 49 or less shall be not less than 36" in width. Private stairways serving an occupant load of not less than 10 shall be not less than 30" in width." The proposed project relocates the present Computer Room to the 4th Floor of the West Wing.by creating a computer suite in the east portion of the West !Ding. This effectively closes off the route of egress to the existing east stairway for this 4th Floor area. The new computer suite would not block off the access of the stairs for the suite itself, but would create a dead end corridor for the remainder of the 4th Floor. The dead end corridor would construct to be less than the 20' minimum requirements. The corridor to the South Wing would be reestablished by removing the par- tition that created the Pathology/Secretarial space. This would give a route of egress to the central stairway and south stair. The existing west stair is the subject of the variance. .it has. a width of; 33". I1C requests that a variance be granted for this west stairway for a second route of egress for this area. It should be noted that the building was originally constructed as a hospital space, and at that time met all the fire codes and building codes with regard to Hospital Classification. However, since 1974, the hospital requested to • reclassify the West Wing building to office space B-2.

Stein, AIA, PE - Stein Hinkle Dawe Wood Johnson 1120 Keystone Avenue Lansing, MI 48910 517/394-3800 ti �Z�lti , aG Appeal #324 Action Taken By The Board: After discussion, a motion was made by Richard Jones and seconded by Frank Throop to allow the exemption from appendex chapter 7 if the following items are completed: 1 . All buildings in the complex to be sprinklered within 24 months. 2. Any business or area that changes or becomes unoccupied cannot be re-occupied until properly sprinklered. 3. No new construction or any buildings may be built or moved on to the north or south wall areas of the enclosed walkway areas. 4. Any north or west wall area ajacent to the walkway that is not protected presently by adequate sprinklers must have approved water curtain type sprinklers installed on the business side wall areas. 5. All areas of the covered walkway, including the enclosed wood type construction above the ceiling area must be properly sprinklered. 6. Proper egressing (number of exits, width of corridors, etc. ) must be maintained to minimum code standards. 7. Building permits and other applicable permits must be obtained. 8. In the event of non-compliance with any of the above listed required conditions, the entire covered walkway and other area must be brought up to all of the requirements of the Lansing Uniform Building Code, appendex Chapter 7, Covered Mall Buildings. Vote: Unanimous EXHIBIT A BACKGROUND The previous Owner, Great Lakes Real Estate Trust, filed an Appeal #293 for a Variance under Chapter 7 of the Uniform Building Code regarding reduction in necessary mall width for the Logan Square Shopping Center. This Variance request was approved on January 11 , 1983. Subsequent to this date the Shopping Center was purchased by Frandorson Prop- erties. They wish to proceed to construction of a similar mall enclosure, but with modifications to the previous variance request. MODIFICATION NO. t This request involves closing in most of the existing walkway along the north- south and eastwest portions of the existing covered canopy, and to add a north- west southeast angled portion at the juncture of the northsouth and eastwest _ malls. To create a covered and enclosed mall area serving the existing shop- ping center. This will also include the creation of small shops along the sides .of the mall .en.closures. The purpose of the new corner section running in a northwest and southeast direction, to fill in a little used large open _. area and to create a more accessible entry from the parking lot to this area of the shopping center. We respectfully request. a Variance from Section 714g to the Uniform Building Code which requires a minimum of 20' width for a mall area without fire separations between the mall and the adjacent stores . • The existing construction consists of masonry bearing walls and wood trussed roof over the existing walkways. It would be very cost prohibitive to remove all of this construction in the process of enclosing the mall . We feel that the narrower width would not effect the exiting in that we have considerably more exits than required by the Code and the exits are much closer together. Maximum distance of travel allowed by the Code is 200',1n the northsouth portion of the mall exits ;are approximately separated as follows - 611 , 1141 , 109' and 101 ' making a maximum travel. distance of 57' . In the eastwest portion of the mall the exits are separated as follows - 1121 , 811 ,108' and 141 ' making a maximum travel distance of 70.5' • The new diagonal mall at the corner has five directions from which to exit from, these are as follows - southerly 95' , easterly 155' , southeasterly 1561 , northerly 140, and westerly 200' through a protected corridor. We feel that the extra exits and their closeness together reduces the necessity for a wider mall to serve as exiting. A good portion of the mall will meet the minimum 20' of width, ;-.the mall will vary in width from 12' to 20' or over and the respective lengths for these are as follows Existing eastwest and northsouth Mall Widths (ft) Length(ft) % 12' 143 13 12' to 15.5' 57 5 15.5' 104 10 15.5' to 20' 122 11 20' and over 663 61 Total length = 1 ,089 ft. 100% Exhibit A Page 2 Proposed New Mall Width(ft) Length(ft) 13' 43' 30 13 ' to 20' 11 8 20' and over 89 62 Total length = 143 ft. 1000 We feel that this existing situation is quite different from a large new mall in that the enclosed mall area will be essentially single loaded. In a typical mall large stores would be located at each side of the mall requiring the use of the mall for exiting, in this situation only a few small shops are located along one side of the—mall and the occupant load serviced by the mall would be greatly reduced from a typical mall situation. All new construction within the mall shall be of incombustible construction. New roofs are framed in steel , all walls will be masonry or metal stud. We will protect off and separate the existing wood trussed roof with fire rated drywall . The new mall will be entirely sprinklered, with an approved sprinkler system. • And we shall use a separate dry sprinkler system within the wood trussed areas to entirely sprinkler all attic spaces. All requirements of the Code for fresh air intake and exhausting for smoke controlled systems shall be installed, and the necessary controls and smoke control for all existing tenant spaces fronting on the mall will also be installed at this time. Part of the requirement, we. feel for the 20' mall width minimum,is that in.a typical mall most of the store fronts ,are completely opened to the mall from these stores. In this case existing entrances shall rema:i.n and existing glass store fronts shall remain, therefore providing a minimum amount of openings between stores in the mall and limited primarily to the entry doors . New shops shall be separated from the mall with metal stud:.and one hour rated construction with only glass at doors andi: show windows. MODIFICATION NO.2 Section 713(c) 3(j) requires a standby power source to operate the necessary smoke control equipment emergency lighting, exit lighting and public address system. It would be very difficult and expensive to install such a system in the existing shopping center, in that we would have to go .-through- _all the existing tenant spaces above ceilings and work around display areas to handle all of the lighting and power. All of the existing emergency lighting and exit lights within existing stores are now powered off separate battery sources, . so in the event of a power failure these would continue to operate. We would Exhibit A Page 3 propose :that all new emergency lighting for the mall . and exit lights be of a similar nature so that this requirement would be meet incase of a power failure—All smoke control equipment including make up air and exhaust fans could be wired to a separate power source independent of any retail space. In the event of _a fire within a retail space that might destroy the electrical service to that space, the smoke control system would continue to operate. There has never been, that we can determine a fire in any store within the existing shopping center. The center has been there a number of years, we feel that the possibility of a fire occuring at the same time as a major power outage for the entire center would be extremely remote and the odds might be in the neighborhood of a million to one, '4 F i 1 ed / //� ��, / C�S Application No. �oJ BOARD OF BUILDING CODE APPEALS CITY OF LANSING, MICHIGAN _ TO THE -.BOARD OF BUILDING APPEALS: Request * ' is hereby made to modify the Lansing Uniform Building Code to permit the following: C tlr.

THRESHER SQUARE 700 THIRD STREET SOUTH MINNEAPOLIS, MN 55415 • PHONE 6121370-0700 July 9, 1985 City of Lansing Building Board of Appeals 119 North Washington Square Lansing, Michigan 48933 To the Chairperson, Mr. Arthur Rapp To the members of the Building Board of Appeals: This letter represents a formal request for variance by the Churchill Companies to the provisions of the 1982 Uniform Building Code as it relates to the pro- posed Radisson Hotel in Lansing Michigan. The Uniform Building Code, 1982 Edition, Section 1807 (h), paragraph 1 stipula- tes that elevators on all floors shall open into elevator lobbies which are • separated from the remainder of the building with walls of not less than one- hour fire resistive construction for buildings complying with the provisions of the high rise code as defined in Section 1807 (a). The design of the Radisson Hotel complies with Section 1807 excluding (h) and incorporates three (3) passenger elevators serving floors 1 through 11, and one ( 1 ) service hydraulic elevator serving floors 1 and 2. On behalf of the Churchill Companies, BRW, Inc. proposes to substitute pressurized elevator shafts in lieu of elevator lobbies at floors 2 through 11 for the passenger ele- vators and the service elevator. We are requesting this variance with the belief that the proposed system will fulfill the intent of having separate elevator lobbies with no reduction or compromise in life safety for the occupants of the building. It is our feeling and the feeling of Winegardner and Hammons Inc. , property managers for the hotel , that introducing hold open doors and lobbies will encumber the day to day operations of the hotel. In addition, it is more desireable aesthetically to have the elevator entrances open to their adjacent spaces. Pressurizing elevator shafts would counteract stack effect and would prevent smoke contaminates from rising in the elevator shaft and entering exit corridors and adjoining spaces from the elevator hoistway entrances. Mechanical pressuri- zation would in essence perform the same function as lobbies except that smoke would be trapped within the hoistway and not in a "sally port" room such as an elevator lobby. • DAVID J.BENNETT DONALD W.RINGROSE RICHARD P.WOLSFELD PETER E.JARVIS LAWRENCE J.GARDNER THOMAS F.CARROLL ARNOLD J.ULLEVIG CRAIG A.AMUNDSEN DONALD E.HUNT MARK G.SWENSON JOHN B.McNAMARA GARY J.ERICKSON DONALD L.CRAIG MINNEAPOLIS DENVER BRECKENRIDGE PHOENIX • City of Lansing July 9, 1985 Page 2 In general terms, the proposed system can be described as follows: o Elevator pressurization would be actuated by equipment within the building fire alarm system (i .e., detectors, fire alarm pulls, flow alarm switches, sprinkler, etc. ) . o Air induced into elevator shafts would attain cfm and positive pressures required for stair pressurization of smokeproof enclosures as defined in the 1982 Uniform Building Code. o Interior fans and ductwork serving elevator pressurization would be enclosed with 2 hour fire resistive construction having appropriate rated access panels strategically located for service and maintenance. o Performance of emergency call back and emergency elevator service would not be affected by inducing air into the shafts. Specific provisions proposed for each elevator hoistway are as follows: • Passenger Elevators Hoistway o Air is induced into the elevator shaft above second floor ceiling and relieved at the top of the hoistway through the sidewall . o Relief vents are equipped with weighted backdraft dampers with the capabi- lity of manual opening at the roof by fire department personnel . o The supply air fan is located at the second floor mechanical mezzanine floor (between grids 116" and 11711, and "C" and "D"). Fan volume wold be 12,000 cfm at 5 hp. Fan would be equivalent to that manufactured by Greenheck, Model No. BS Q-30-50. Service Elevator Hoistway o Air is induced into elevator shaft from power roof supply fan. Fan volume would be 2,000 cfm at 1/2 hp. Fan would be equivalent to that manufactured by Greenheck, Model No. PFE-24. o No relief vent would be provided. • • City of Lansing July 9, 1985 Page 3 Thank you for you consideration of this matter.

We would like to treat each area as separate. AREA I - Personnel,,and Finance, Michigan Department of Corrections. The addition of partitions within the existing office space to form perimeter offices and a computer room creates two noncontinuous corridors within the office area. Section 3305 (g) and (h) requires that corridor walls be of 1 -hour construction with rated doors and frames on openings. Because the new corridors are not continuous , this inter- pretation of the code requires all the wal "Is enclosing the exit space to be rated. New walls would have to be full height to under side of roof deck and existing walls would have to be rated and also extended above ceilings to under- side of roof deck. Also the large ceiling areas between these exit walls would have to be rated. Fire rating and extending the existing=walls will be very difficult if not impossible and the same with the existing ceilings. The 1985 Uniform Building Code, which is projected to be adopted in 1986, has been changed to allow for a 100 occupant load instead of the current 30. At 100 square feet per occupant for office usage, the allowable area is increased to 10,000 square feet from the current 3,000 square feet. • This office space is 10,600 square feet within .the existing enclosing fire walls. We herewith respectfully request that in light of the new code allowing the greater area that an exception to the current code be granted. The existing office space has a sprinkler fire suppression system and we will add the necessary smoke detectors. All new partitions , etc. , shall be of incombustible construction. AREA 2 - Administrative Services , Michigan Department of Corrections. This office area is currently occupied by the Michigan Department of Corrections and is enclosed on two sides by exterior walls and the other two sides by fire rated exit corridors . This space has three exit doors to the fire exit corridors and two exit doors directly to the exterior of the building. These five exits exceeds the required exits. The space is divided into two areas of 4,000 square feet and 8,700 square feet by a two hour fire wall , any new openings in this wall will be fire rated. The The total remodeling within this office area is comprised of additional partitions and doors to create some new offices and additions at a cost of $20,000. This is relatively minor remodeling in relation to the total area. The same code problem is created in the 8,700 square feet portion of the space as in Area #1 ; that is a partial corridor is created requiring considerable fire wall and ceiling treatment. The same reasoning applies to this area as Area #1 . The space is 8,700 square feet, • less than the new code allowable of 10,000. We hereby request that a variance to the existing code be granted for this area. Smoke detectors will also be provided in this area. • Appeal #332 Part 1 - Corridor requirements at Logan Shopping Center - Personnel and Finance Department) Part 2 - Corridor requirements at Logan Shopping Center - Administrative Services. Part 1 - After presentations by Mr. Stein, Mr. Parrish and Ms. Sunquist and discussion by board members, a motion was made by Richard Stuckman and seconded by Richard Jones to allow noncombustible unrated corridors in this area if the maximum area is 10,000 sugare feet, sprinklered, and smoke detectors are installed within any area in excess of 10,000 square feet be separated with an approved two hour fire resistive area separation with walls and openings protected.
