RE: Edmonds United Methodist Church
Technically Infeasible request for Ramp Width in Sanctuary
Dear Mr. Hammer,
After review of your request for a technically infeasible ramp within the Sanctuary of the
Edmonds United Methodist Church, it is my determination as Building Official for the
City of Edmonds that based on International Building Code Section 3402 the request is
hereby Approved as the existing glu-lam arch columns are major structural elements of
the building and cannot be altered to accommodate full width landings at the top and
bottom of the ramp. The width of the landings may be reduced at these structural
elements.
Sincerely,
(��*T
