Chapter 34 Review
RE: 55 Kensington - Second Floor Renovations
Scope: 55 Kensington is an existing wood framed three family dwelling on an existing
non-conforming lot. Proposed renovations are limited to the second floor apartment
and involve exterior and interior changes.
The proposed exterior improvements to 55 Kensington Avenue include replacement of
one window in a modified opening, removal and infill of one window, the relocation of
one existing window in a modified door opening and a new door installed in a
modified window opening.
The proposed interior renovations include removal of interior non-loadbearing
partitions; installation of new interior partitions and doors; new plumbing and
electrical work and modifications to the existing second floor heating system.
Level 2 Alteration: The proposed scope of work is considered a Level 2 alteration as
defined by the 2009 IEBC. The following provisions Chapters 6 & 7 apply:
Section 602 - Building Elements and Materials: All new materials and systems are
compliant with the 2009 IBC.
Section 704.2.2 - Fire protection - Since the work area on the second floor does not
affect the exits and the occupant load is less than 30, automatic sprinkler protection is
not required.
704.4.1 .6 - Fire alarm and detection - The second floor dwelling unit will be installed
with smoke and CO detection compliant with Chapter 9 of the 2009 IBC.
Section 705 - Means of Egress: The work area does not affect the number of exits or
existing means of egress.
Section 707 - Structural: No structural changes are anticipated with this renovation.
