<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>Wow! I really didn’t mean for my comment to
spark military/government industry bashing. I must have fallen asleep at
my “desk” during those times I was being paid to just sit around
and “read” or waiting for something to happen because I sure don’t
remember those times. Yes, reading and staying current is part of any
profession if you really want to be a “professional.” But, is
that all that was done in these professions? No. Despite some folks’
perceptions, the military actually do work when they are not off “fighting
the war.” <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>That being said, I think you misunderstood my input and its
application. I was not trying to say that this would solve the issue of
having multiple levels of jurisdiction each with their own set of “rules”
and interpretations thereof. I think something could be done to make this
better but I also don’t think you will completely get rid of it nor would
you really want to. Even in the military, and specifically the flying world,
you had this. Individual units had their “localisms” that had
to be there because of the local setup and environment but then there were other
rules that applied at other levels. If I took off from Florida and flew
to, let’s say Egypt, I transited numerous control areas and countries
each with their own set of rules that I had to know, understand, and comply
with. Some of these rules have very serious consequences (like being shot
down) if not followed precisely. Yes, there are international flying
rules but then each country has its own as well. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>I’m a firm believer that most (not all) rules we live
under in the building industry are there for a good reason and thus should be
understood and followed. However, in some circumstances these rules may
not apply or may apply in a slightly different manner than originally intended.
That’s where the local interpretation and local “isms” come
in. I agree that the local “isms” seem to be a bit out of
hand and something needs to be done to get the issue back in check.
However, I really don’t think anyone wants to be strictly mandated to one
overarching “code” with no capability to tailor it to the local
conditions. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>My suggestion below was geared toward the idea of at least simplifying
the information flow so one could go to one location for a given jurisdiction
(maybe eventually this could be consolidated to one website) and view all the
changes, interpretations, “isms”, etc that have been issued and
need to be complied with. I was not providing my suggestion as a
replacement to the suggestions already give but as an addition to them. I
don’t understand how you can say that better information flow is “not
economically feasible.” You stated that you some of your designs
have been in the works for 6-9 months before they are submitted. Can I
assume that during that time you would like to know about the “isms”
as they occur instead of finding out one came out six months ago when you were
early in the design process? If so, then my idea is exactly what
you need. Let’s assume the building under design is going to be
permitted in the county. If the county is required to post their changes,
interpretations, “isms”, etc in some formal way (notebook, online,
etc) on a real time basis then I would think a weekly check of this posting
would be helpful to the designer to find out if anything has been issued that
affects the design.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>I was certainly not suggesting that one be required to sit
around and read stuff that has nothing to do with their job. However, all
of us, whether we be designer, architect, contractor, sub-contractor, building
official, etc, are paid to keep up with the changes no matter how many or
few. This is one of the main reasons I hire a designer/architect/engineer
when I need plans. I expect that they are fully up to speed with not only
the printed code but also the localisms for each jurisdiction such that my
plans will go through the first time. I realize the complexity of this
task grows along with the size and complexity of the project but so does the
costs for the services and rightfully so.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

not be designing to one set of books only to find a change to the books after
we submitted. Some of the custom houses and buildings we design have been
on the table for 6 to 9 months before the 1<sup>st</sup> submittal to the
building department. By that time we could have had one set of glitch
amendments approved and maybe 2 or 3 building official ism’s that have
occurred. It is not the glitch that is frustrating but the ism’s
that bite. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

the 2004 FBC but have not codified them to the 2007 FBC. They have no web

book, no ism’s, that only is allowed to have glitch amendments submitted
half-way through the code cycle and moving the code cycle farther apart to 5
year cycles. I know ASCE is looking hard at going to 5 year code cycles
to reduce cost and the changes that they see in the 3 year cycles move the
“state of the art”. But really does not increase the safety
of design beyond 1% in my humble opinion. In some cases they 3 years
later go back to the original due to the “state of the art” lost
some basics along the way and reduced the safety of a building through to much
optimization.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

color:#1F497D'>When I was a pilot in the USAF (we all have previous lives
don’t we?) we had what was called a Flight Crew Information File
(FCIF). Basically, the way it worked was that before you stepped out the
door to go fly you had to read and sign off on all the latest FCIFs. You
had a signoff card where you wrote each FCIF number and then your initials next
to each one to show that you had read and complied with each FCIF. We had
a binder with all the FCIFs posted. Heaven help you if you were caught
out flying without your FCIF card signed off up to date. Things in this
book could be either Air Force wide (or even DoD wide) or could be local
stuff. Anytime a pubs change came out it was listed in the FCIF.
Signing off the FCIF for it meant that you had received, posted, and would
comply with these changes. It was a simple but very effective system for
providing one stop shopping for information distribution and retrieval. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

to hear about new info like this coming out is either through this forum or
word of mouth. I’m sure most of this info is on the web but seems
like you have to go to multiple sites to get the entire picture. When I
was in the military, if it wasn’t in the published regulation, published
change, or FCIF it didn’t exist. As for the code changes,
isn’t there a way to have it published and then have a “comply with

unknown or obscure Code that requires changes and resubmission. That
statement applies to policies of individual inspection departments too.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

about sponsoring a bill that says that code changes including supplements
can not go into effect until thirty days AFTER they are available in both
written and electronic versions. This business of not having the codes in
a decent format until 60 to 90 days after they go into effect is
ridiculous! Make that 90 to 180 days for the CD versions! I know
it's bad for the building department personnel but it's even worse for us
designers as we are often working on jobs 2 to 3 months prior to permitting.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
