Appeal Information Sheet
Appeal item 1
| Code Section | 2014 OSSC §703.3 Alternative Methods for Determining Fire Resistance |
|---|---|
| Requires | 703.3 Alternative methods for determining fire resistance. The application of any of the alternative methods listed in this section shall be based on the fire exposure and acceptance criteria specified in ASTM E 119 or UL 263. The required fire resistance of a building element, component or assembly shall be permitted to be established by any of the following methods or procedures:
|
| Code Modification or Alternate Requested | Allow applied intumescent coating as approved fire protection for existing steel connections based on engineering analysis. |
| Proposed Design | The proposed design is for protection of an existing Steel Connection supporting the Heavy timber arched column at the ground level and at the top of member connection. 1-hour fire-resistance rating will be achieved by the application of intumescent coating at the base steel connection and at the top of member connection. Intumescent thicknesses are based on ESR-5314 as detailed in the attached engineering judgement analysis. |
| Reason for alternative | Due to the unique conditions, fire protection for the original existing composite steel connection brackets is not supported by listed/tested ASTM E119 assemblies and therefore require engineering evaluation to meet the protection standards per Chapter 7 of OSSC. An engineering analysis stamped by Franklin Callfas, an Oregon registered FPE is attached to support this alternate. |
Appeal Decision
Allow applied intumescent coating as approved fire protection for existing steel connections based on engineering analysis: Hold for additional information.
