Project Submission Requirements for Opening Protection Enforcement Banner

When submitting projects to Plan Review, the following information must be provided when the project is located in a windborne debris region:

  • Include the maximum pressures (both negative and positive) for all openings. This can be detailed in either the elevation drawings or the door/window schedule.
  • Provide manufacturer specifications for the openings that demonstrate the glazing meets the maximum design pressures.

The maximum pressures must be calculated using wind load calculations for the structure in accordance with ASCE 7, 2022 edition.
