gravel and fill shall be clean and free of organic material and compacted in max. 6" lifts, All new
drainage and under slab backfill to 6"thick shall be washed stone approx. 3/4" sieve.
Walkways—upper basement and west first floor get new egresses; walkways shall be Asphalt Paved.
Sequence of operation
Section 1 - In the event of a fire or smoke event, the alarms will sound; the staff
will be alerted by audible alarms. The monitor will notify the Northampton fire
department. The emergency lighting will operate and occupants of the building
will be directed by exit signs to five exits to grade. Occupants may rendezvous
at the parking lot in front of the building. The first floor level has three egresses
to grade from the main foyer, coffee lounge and east. The lower basement floor
has one main egress at the south of the function hall and stairs up to the upper
basement. The upper basement has one egress to grade and one stair up with an
area of refuge and signal device. The elevator will have automatic lowering to
bring occupants to the lower basement lobby and cease operation in the event of
a fire. Manual fire extinguishers and manual alarm pull stations will be
conspicuously placed near the egresses.
Testing criteria
Section 1 — Testing Criteria
The manager of the property is the Pastor, Mike Stotts (office 413-584-5935;
parsonage 413-586-9446). The fire alarm and emergency backup lighting
systems shall be tested at intervals (yearly) and a record maintained at the
office. Deficiencies revealed shall be immediately remedied.
Section 2 — Equipment and Tools
No special equipment is anticipated to monitor the detection system, emergency
egress lighting and signage. Manufacturer's instructions for all installations
shall be maintained on file.
Section 3 — Approval Requirements
The Building Official and Fire Marshall may contact the Architect or Owner
verbally. Any deficiencies noted in operation, location or condition of the
detection system, egress features, emergency egress lighting and signage shall
be immediately remedied. Upon completion of the project, the Fire Marshall
shall observe and accept the fire safety components prior to issuance of
Certificate of Occupancy. Any requests or comments from the Building
Inspector, Fire Marshall or others shall be directed to Pastor Mike Stotts (office
413-584-5935; parsonage 413-586-9446). Jeffrey Scott Penn, the Architect,
may be reached (tel. 413-667-5230).
Respectfully submitted,
Jeffrey Scott Penn, Architect
Section 4 — Fire Protection systems to be Installed
Water supply is from a town water line. A hydrant is located within 200 feet
due east of the entry near the building sign along route 66. The entire building
will be covered by integrated smoke detectors and audible alarms (modifying
and expanding existing system). Egress paths are created from each part of the
building including exit signage and emergency illumination. Manual Fire
Extinguishers and fire alarm pull stations will be conspicuously located near the
egresses on each level. One Egress from the lower basement function hall will
be enlarged to meet code. The function room has no inflammable materials as
part of the construction. The upper basement will have a new egress hall and
door installed to code. The unprotected stair at the east of the upper basement
will be altered to accommodate an area of refuge with a signal device. The first
floor main entry is adequate at 6' width. The west egress will be enlarged to
meet code. The new elevator shaft shall be 2hr fire rated with required detector
system actuated ventilation. Strobing light alarms will be added to each
lavatory. All of these features are intended to increase fire safety performance.
Section 5 — Features Used in the Design Methodology
The automatic fire and smoke detection system will be maintained with regular
reports records maintained. In the event of a fire, Automatic audible alarms and
emergency lighting will alert building occupants to evacuate the building. The
monitor will alert the Northampton fire department. Illuminated exit signs will
direct occupants to the five egress locations. Manual fire extinguishers will be
conspicuously placed in the hall near the egresses on each level. The exterior is
open and unimpaired. No substantial interruption of safety features is expected
during construction.
Section 6 — Code compliance
Strobe alarms will be added to the existing and new lavatories. The lower
basement has only one accessible egress from the lower basement function hall.
This is a continuation of the existing condition but improved by widening of the
egress door, installation of an accessible landing at the egress door (currently
non-compliant) and removal of the non-compliant ramp which leads deeper into
the building with no accessible egress or signal device. There is no clear
physical opportunity to add a remote egress for this room. There is no
structural fire protection of pathways or stairs with windows into adjacent
rooms and exposed woodwork; new constructions will use 1 hour protection
techniques (25 MSG studs and 5/8" type X gypsum wallboard) except the
elevator shaft and mechanical room will be 2 hour fire protected.

Basis of Design
Section 1 — Building Description
Christ United Methodist Church is use group A4 and type 5b construction
completed in 1977. The height to the midpoint of the sanctuary roof is
approximately 19'-3". The building has one inhabited story below grade with
minimal access to grade and one story above grade with more than half of the
level at grade. The footprint of the building is 5,777 square feet with a total of
11,373 gross square feet for both levels. There are no known hazardous
materials on site (flooring tile containing asbestos in the lavatories will be
properly removed and disposed of). The freestanding building is accessible by
State Route 66 (Rocky Hill Road). There is a municipal water system fire
hydrant directly in front of the building at route 66. The main frontage of the
building is at the main parking area and the rear (basement) egresses are
accessible from a lower parking lot which is directly connected with the main
parking lot. Thus emergency access vehicles have direct access to the building
except for 152 feet of south frontage which fronts open lawn adjacent to the
lower parking.
Section 2 — Applicable Laws, Regulations and Standards
The Architect has integrated research into design from 780 CMR and 521 CMR
Section 3 — Design Responsibility for Fire Protection Systems
An automatic fire suppression system is not provided. A new monitored
medium sized addressable detection system is under design by Landry Lock and
Alarm. The Architect has reviewed codes and integrated safety features.

entrance is 6' wide leading to an accessible walkway(handrails are only present on one side of the
ramp to the parking). I propose altering the west egress to be accessible with addition of a landing
and sloped walkway to the parking lot(the door swing will be altered to proper direction and the
door size increased to accommodate 50% capacity; from 36"to 48"). The proposed first floor,
therefore would be improved into code compliance.

CODE COMPLIANCE ANALYSIS
Chapter 34
A4 use; 5B construction; (Table 503 —exceed 20' height with steeple at 44',height to midpoint
sanctuary roof is 19'-3", footprint allowed 7200 sf—exist. 5777 sf); exits not fire protected, see
egresses discussion below for explanation of improvements; continue same use and not increase in
footprint; building insulation present but inadequate; new building systems and constructions will
be code compliant; number and size of egresses (based on Table 1008.1.2 occupancies—first floor
473 people,basement 192 people)—2 egresses per level (three exist but some inadequate size as
follows); doors and corridors: half capacity first floor=47.3" (exist. Hall 65", replacement door
48") half capacity basement=38.4" (exist. Hall 65", new and replacement door 40",new hall 45")
note: existing east stair inadequate width(req. 57.6"by floor capacity, exist. Approx.36") see
egresses below for improvement; exit signage is in place for existing exits, additional signage will
elucidate new egresses; the emergency egress lighting is in place and will be reviewed for
adequacy(one new battery backup egress light is added with the exit sign for the new upper
basement egress); carbon monoxide detectors will be added to each level in the main hallway; for
energy performance, the new windows and doors will be compliant; accessibility inadequate,
renovations will improve conditions (see egresses below).
Egresses
the basement(192 occupants by T 1008.1.2) requires 2 exits. The existing condition is one direct
(non-accessible) 3' egress at the rear of the function hall (basement lower level), a non-compliant
ramp (too steep; no intermediate landing) connecting the two basement levels, one enclosed stair
(non-fire rated, inadequate width) at the east allowing upper basement and first floor levels access
to one 3' door directly to grade, and one unenclosed stair allowing upper basement access to the
lobby 6' egress. I propose altering the existing function hall egress door to be accessible and
enlarged to meet the 50% capacity(increase 36"to 40"width). I propose removal of the non-
compliant ramp. I propose installation of an elevator for non-fire protected universal access to all
three levels. I propose addition of an accessible hall and additional 40" exit door at the upper
basement level (code compliance alternative to accept inadequate clearance at push side of door
due to available space) accessing a new compliant walkway to the rear parking. I propose creation
of an area of refuge in the east stair with a signal device activating a light and audio alert at the
main level exterior. The proposed basement, therefore would be improved into having one
accessible direct egress from each basement level, an area of refuge for the upper basement and
two stairs accessing first floor egress (but not fire protected). The first floor level (473 occupants
by T 1008.1.2) requires 2 exits. The first floor has 4 exits; the east 3' egress at the stair, the main
6' entry/egress, the western 3' egress and one informal 3' exit from the east classroom. The main
