The sprinkler shop building, located approximately in the center of the University's First West storage area,was built in 1969 as a laundry facility to support the once existent trailer park Record documentation and information regarding the laundry facility's original construction is unavailable. Current adopted codes classify self-serve laundry facilities as `B' occupancies.When the trailer park was disassembled in approximately 1988,the laundry facility's use was changed to the University's sprinkler shop. Sometime after 1988,the plumbing fixtures in the north restroom were removed to accommodate additional storage. Current adopted codes also categorize the sprinkler shop use in the `B'occupancy classification. The University proposes to change the use of the sprinkler shop building from a sprinkler shop to a recycling center operations office.The proposed change in use does not change the `B'occupancy classification of the facility.Accompanying this letter are drawings showing the proposed office space configuration as well as the reinstallation of the plumbing fixtures in the north restroom. A brief code analysis follows. • Use and Occupancy Classification:Business Group B • Type of Construction:V-B • Allowable Building Height:2 stories per Table 503 • Actual Building Height: 1 story • Allowable Area:9,000 square feet per Table 503 • Actual Building Area:900 square feet • Fire-Resistance Rating Requirements for Building Elements: 0 hours per table 602 • Fire-Resistance Rating Requirements for Exterior Walls Based on Fire Separation Distance: 0 hours per table 602 • Automatic Sprinkler System:not required per 903.2 jedd clan walker Campus Architect I Phone:(208)496-2663 I Fax:(208)496-6449 I walkerje @byui.edu • S BYU Facility Planning & Construction Brigham Young University-Idaho • 283 Physical Plant• Rexburg, ID • 83460-8205 IDAHO • Portable Fire Extinguishers: required per 906.
