Edit Distributed Request

Original Request

  • Request ID: 8482
  • Date Submitted: November 11, 2020
  • Requested By: G Michael Starks
  • Code: Existing Building
  • Edition: 2017
  • Chapter: Chapter 3 Provisions for all Compliance Methods
  • Section: 302
  • Topic: replacement windows
  • Question:
    Is it the intent of Section 302 of the FBC - Existing Buildings, 6th Edition to permit the omission of water-resistance flashing in framed openings into which the new fenestration is installed where all of the exterior cladding and water-resistance flashing has been removed prior to the new installation?
  • Comments:
    The new installation lacks continuity of the flashing both at the sill/jamb and the head/jamb interface. They are actively leaking in even minor rain conditions.
