BUILDING BLOCKSDRAFTEFFECTIVE DATE:TBDSUBJECT:To establish compliance with the construction ofbuildings and structures governed by the FloridaBuilding Code (FBC) 5th Edition – Building and ASCE24-14 - Flood Resistant Design and Construction.AUTHORITY:FBC 5th Edition: Chapter 1 – Administration, 101.2Scope; Section 1612 Flood Loads; 1612.4 Design andconstruction; Chapter 5 of ASCE 7 – Wind Load andASCE 24 – Flood Resistant Design and Construction;Collier County Flood Damage Prevention OrdinancePURPOSE:To establish that compliance with Chapter 5 of ASCE 7and ASCE 24-14 is required for buildings andstructures located in flood hazard areas, includingcoastal high hazard areas.RELATED BUILDING BLOCKS: A-128 Certified Site Plans and Spot Surveysand A-132 FEMA InspectionsDEFINITIONS:Base Flood Elevation (BFE): The BFE is the elevation of flooding, including waveheight, having the 1% chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year. TheBFE is identified on Collier County’s effective Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map(DFIRM).Design Flood Elevation (DFE): The elevation of the “design flood,” including waveheight, relative to the datum specified on the community’s legally designated floodhazard map.In general, the BFE and the DFE are the same elevation on the Collier Countyeffective DFIRM.For the purposes of South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) DFEs, theSFWMD DFE will be compared to the BFE 1, and the higher elevation will berequired.A-XX Compliance with ASCE 24-14 for BuildingsJuly 27, 2015Page 1 of 7
Dry floodproofing: A combination of design modifications that results in a buildingor structure, including the attendant utilities and equipment and sanitary facilities,being water tight with walls substantially impermeable to the passage of waterand with structural components having the capacity to resist loads as identified inASCE 7 (Section 1612 FBC).Flood Hazard Area: The greater of the following two areas: 1) The area within afloodplain subject to a 1-percent of greater chance of flooding in any given year.2) The area designated as a flood hazard area on a community’s flood hazardmap, or otherwise legally designated.For the purposes of this Building Block, the Flood Hazard Area in Collier Countyshall include any flood zone that begins with a “V” or “A”.PERMITS:The FBC Building establishes in Chapter 1 – Administrative the scope theBuilding code and reads as follows:101.2 Scope. The provisions of this code shall apply to the construction,alteration, relocation, enlargement, replacement, repair, equipment, use andoccupancy, location, maintenance, removal and demolition of every building ofstructure or any appurtenances connected or attached to such buildings orstructures.Exceptions:1.

Existing buildings undergoing repair, alterations or additions or changeof occupancy shall comply with Chapter 34 of this code.Section 1612 Flood Loads establishes General and Design and constructionstandards as follows:1612.1 General. Within flood hazard areas as established in Section 1612.3, allnew construction of buildings, structures and portions of buildings and structures,including substantial improvement and restoration of substantial damage tobuildings and structures, shall be designed and constructed to resist the effectsof flood hazards and flood loads. For buildings that are located in more than oneflood hazard area, the provisions associated with the most restrictive floodhazard area shall apply.A-XX Compliance with ASCE 24-14 for BuildingsJuly 27, 2015Page 2 of 7
