Not at all. I'm agreeing that a standpipe is required by the letter of the code, and that the FDC should be on whatever side or access lane the FD wants it to be, regardless of height.

On vacation but still checking e-mail because I'm an addicted loser and I admit it. ________________________________ From: [email protected] on behalf of Bob Knight Sent: Thu 6/25/2009 8:44 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Standpipe FDC Access I have a situation where there is a four story building that is 33' to the lowest level of fire department vehicle access on the west side. The east side of the building is only 23' above the lowest level of fire department vehicle access. My question is if the FDC is located on the east side of the building can the standpipe requirement be eliminated since the 23' is less than the 30' required by IBC 905.3.1?
