Supplementary Standards • The Supplementary Standards (volume 2) gives specifics as to assemblies for different materials, visual details for some assemblies and more detailed / clarifications of different parts of the code. • The supplementary standards help designers with fire separations, assembly information, load calculation information.
Supplementary Standards exercise #1 • SB-1, deals with climatic & seismic information • snow load, wind, temp, rain • SB-2, fire performance rating • Sect 2 - ratings of materials • Sect 3 - flame spread & smoke for material surface • Sect 4 - non-combustibility of materials • Sect 5 - installation of fire doors, dampers, flaps • SB-3, fire and sound resistance of assemblies • SB-6, percolation time and soil description
Supplementary Standards exercise #1 • SB-7, guard construction criteria • SB-9, soil gas control • radon gases from the earth (9.13.4.2.) • SB-10, energy efficiency supplement
Excavation Inspection • Minimum depths of foundation • type of soil • heated or un-heated space • drainage of soil • depth of freezing • Water on site • must be removed (pumping, well pointing) • caution of nearby buildings • may require barricades • hydrostatic pressure
Excavation Inspection • Soil type • any loose material must be removed • organic material must be removed • must meet minimum allowable bearing pressure • Existing and new services • sewer line locations (high or low) • water line locations (usually pass under footings) • electrical services • Work on exercise #2, Q1 to Q4
Angle of Repose • angle of repose is the steepest angle which the surface of a mass of loose particulate matter makes with the ground • angle of repose is affected by the size, mass, angularity, and dampness of the particles, and by the force of downward acceleration, but it is consistent for a given material • knowing the angle of repose of a material in various circumstances is vital for engineers
Angle of Repose (caution) • one way of predicting a failure is if there is a separation/crack in the earth at the top of the bank some distance away from the edge of the excavation • if your foundation is within the angle of repose of an existing building, some sort of support system must be used to protect the existing building and the new footing and foundation may require engineering to resist lateral pressure
Excavation bank failure • Work on Exercise #3 for homework
