Unit B-9 Life Safety Review
To whom it concerns,
MICROFILM
As directed by the City of Edmonds, we have performed a basic life -safety
review of unit B-9 of the Mariner Condominiums. The review and comments
below are based on applicable provisions of the 2006 IBC.
The following items were noted as not being in conformance with current
Code:
I There is no approved means of egress from the unit. Unit exit
discharges through the parking garage.
2. Bedroom windows do not meet emergency exiting requirements.
3. There are no smoke defectors in the unit.
4. The building is not equipped with fire sprinklers.
Proposed corrections to be included in the repairs currently being reviewed
by the City:
1 New primary means of egress. Replace sliding door at Living Room
with a double French type swing door exiting directly to the
courtyard.
2. Revise window configuration at Bedroom to meet minimum egress
requirements.
3. Add battery powered smoke detectors at main living area, laundry
room and sleeping rooms.
4. Sprinklering of existing building not required per Code. No change
proposed.
Please see revised plans sheets A 2.1 and A 3.3 which include these changes.
Sincerely,
