EDITION; ADOPTING LOCAL AMENDMENTS THERETO, AND MAKING
FINDINGS FOR SAME; AND ADOPTING A NOTICE OF EXEMPTION
REGARDING SAME
BACKGROUND
Every three years, the State of California Building Standards Commission ("BSC") adopts the California Building Standards Code ("Code"), which sets forth construction standards that must be followed Statewide. Pursuant to Health and Safety Code Sections 17958 and 17958.5, cities and counties will automatically be subject to the Code 180 days after publication but may adopt amendments so long as the amendments are reasonably necessary based on specific findings because of local climatic, geological, or topographical conditions. Since the County of Los Angeles ("County") provides building and safety services to the City and evaluates the Code for local climatic, geological, or topographical conditions the City typically adopts or considers the County amendments. For developers, designers, and contractors, consistent standards across the County and the City can simplify the development process.
DISCUSSION
In January 2022, the BSC adopted the latest Code that include requirements for building, existing building, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, and residential construction. The Code was published on July 1, 2022 and becomes effective on January 1, 2023. On November 15, 2022, the County adopted its amendments.
Historically, the City has adopted by reference the Los Angeles County amendments for building, existing building, electrical, mechanical, plumbing and residential codes. Attachment 1 to Ordinance No. 820 provides a list of the County's recent amendments along with the climatic, geologic, and topographic conditions that substantiates each modification.
In short, the City agrees with the County amendments as they aid building resilience in crisis situations. However, the County adopted certain amendments to the plumbing code that do not aid resilience and present increased costs to new developments. For these reasons, the County amendments related to the reuse of graywater, names sections 206.0, 210.H, 304.1, and 601.2.3, have been excluded from the proposed ordinances. Exhibit E contains an excerpt of the County's plumbing amendments with sections 206.0, 210.H, 304.1, and 601.2.3 stricken out. Excluding these sections is consistent with the City's code adoption in 2019.
Due to the timing of the County finishing its amendments (November 15, 2022) and the effective date of the State Code (January 1, 2023), on December 12, 2022, the City Council adopted Urgency Ordinance No. 821 U, adopting by reference, the County's Building Code, with the exceptions noted above, which took effect on January 1, 2023. Further, at the same meeting, the City Council set the public hearing on Ordinance No. 820 for January 12, 2023. On January 2, 2023, notice of the public hearing was published in the San Gabriel Valley Tribune, and posted at City Hall, Council Chambers, and Fire Station 118.
To proceed with adopting the 2022 California Building Codes with the Los Angeles County amendments, Staff recommends that the City Council conduct the public hearing, and adopt Ordinance No. 820.
The ordinances have been determined to be except from the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to State Guidelines 15061(b)(3) as a project that has no potential for causing a significant effect on the environment.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact related to the adoption of updated building standards.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council: (1) Open the public hearing; (2) Take public testimony; (3) Close the public hearing; (4) Waive reading of Ordinance No. 820 and read by title only; and (5) Adopt Ordinance No. 820 - An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Industry Adopting by Reference, Pursuant to Government Code Section 50022.2, Title 26 of the Los Angeles County Building Code, Incorporating by Reference the California Building Code 2022 Edition; Title 28 of the Los Angeles County Plumbing Code, Incorporating by Reference the California Plumbing Code 2022 Edition; Title 27 of the Los Angeles County Electrical Code, Incorporating by Reference the California Electrical Code 2022 Edition; Title 29 of the Los Angeles County Mechanical Code, Incorporating by Reference the California Mechanical Code 2022 Edition; Title 30 of the Los Angeles County Residential Code, Incorporating by Reference the California Residential Code 2022 Edition; Title 33 of the Los Angeles County Existing Building Code, Incorporating by Reference the California Existing Building Code 2022 Edition; Adopting Local Amendments Thereto, and Making Findings for Same; and adopting a Notice of Exemption regarding same.

THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF INDUSTRY DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. FINDINGS.
The City Council of the City of Industry (the "City") adopts this ordinance based upon the following findings and determinations:
(A) Pursuant to California Health and Safety Code Sections 17958.5, 17958.7 and 18941.5, the City Council hereby makes each finding of reasonable necessity for modifications as stated separately in Attachment 1, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, and as set forth in the Los Angeles County Code. These modifications to the California Building Standards Code, incorporating the model codes are reasonably necessary due to the high potential for seismic activity which make structures particularly vulnerable to structural damage, as well as local climatic, geological and/or topographical conditions in the County of Los Angeles. (B) California State law requires localities, such as the City of Industry, to adopt the 2022 California Building Standards Code and any modifications there to, by January 1, 2023. The City Council finds that it is essential and imperative that the City adopt this Ordinance, adopting by reference the above-listed Los Angeles County Code and modifications necessitated by local geological conditions by that date. The City Council further finds that in the absence of legislation effective by that date, technical codes adequate to meet the City's special circumstances will not be in effect and hazards will be posed which would immediately threaten the public peace, health, and safety.
Accordingly, the City Council finds that this Ordinance is necessary, and is adopted for the immediate preservation of public peace, health and safety of the City and its residents.
SECTION 2. CEQA.
Upon independent review and consideration of the information contained in the Staff Report and the Notice of Exemption for this Ordinance, the City Council hereby finds and determines that this Ordinance does not have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Accordingly, the City Council finds and determines that this Ordinance is exempt from California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA", Public Resources Code § 21000 et seq.) pursuant to the general rule in Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines (Chapter 3, of Title 14, of the California Code of Regulations) that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment and therefore the City Council approves and adopts the Notice of Exemption.

BUILDING CODE AMENDMENTS
Code Condition Explanation of Amendment
Section
106.3.2, Administrativ The greater Los Angeles/Long Beach region is Item 2 e Geologic situated over a vast array of earthquake fault systems capable of producing major earthquakes, including, but
not limited to, the 1994 Northridge Earthquake. Due to
the risk of geologic activities in the Southern Calitornia area, buildings and structures require a high level of
performance. This existing local enforcement provision
limits the height of fences built without a permit in
order to reduce the chance of failure of fences that
may be built improperly. Because fences that are
exempt from permits are constructed without the
benefit of inspection to verify that proper constructio methods are used, it has been observed that tences
are commonly built without proper footings and/or
reinforcement, which causes leaning and collapse of
the fence.
701A. 1 Climatic Clarifies the application of Chapter 7A to include additions, alterations, and/or relocated buildings.
Many areas of the County have been designated as
Fire Hazard Severity Zones due to low humidity, strong
winds, and dry vegetation. Additions, alterations,
and/or relocated buildings have the same fire risk as
new buildings.
701A.3 Climatic Clarifies the application of Chapter 7A to include additions, alterations, and/or relocated buildings.
Many areas of the County have been designated as
Fire Hazard Severity Zones due to the increased risk
of fire caused by low humidity, strong winds, and dry
vegetation. Additions, alterations, and/or relocated
buildings have the same fire risk as new buildings.
701A.3.1 Climatic Clarifies the application of Chapter 7A to include additions, alterations, and/or relocated buildings.
Many areas of the County have been designated as

vegetation. Additions, alterations, and/or relocated
buildings have the same fire risk as new buildings.
703A.5.2 Climatic Disallows the use of wood-shingle/wood-shake roofs and due to the increased risk of fire in the County caused 703A.5.2.2 by low humidity, strong winds, and dry vegetation in high fire severity zones.
704A.4 Climatic Disallows the use of wood-shingle/wood-shake roofs due to the increased risk of fire in the County caused
by low humidity, strong winds, and dry vegetation in
high fire severity zones.
705A.2 Climatic Disallows the use of wood-shingle/wood-shake roofs and requires the use of Class A roof covering due to
the increased risk of fire in the County caused by low
humidity, strong winds, and dry vegetation in high fire severity zones.
1031.2.1 Geological The greater Los Angeles/Long Beach region is a densely populated area having buildings constructed
over and near a vast array of earthquake fault systems
capable of producing major earthquakes, including, but
not limited to, the 1994 Northridge Earthquake. The
proposed amendment is intended to prevent
occupants from being trapped in a building and to
allow rescue workers to easily enter after an
earthquake.
Table Geological Table amended to require proper anchorage for clay or 1507.3.7 concrete tiles from sliding or rotating due to the increased risk of significant earthquakes in the County.
This amendment incorporates the design provisions
developed based on detailed study of the 1994
Northridge and the 1971 Sylmar earthquakes.
1613.5 Geological Observed damages to one- and two-family dwellings of light frame construction after the Northridge
and
Earthquake may have been partially attributed to
1613.5.1 vertical irregularities common to this type of occupanc and construction. In an effort to improve quality o
construction and incorporate lesson learned from
studies after the Northridge Earthquake, the proposed
Code Condition Explanation of Amendment
Section
modification to ASCE 7-16, Section 12.2.3.1,
Exception 3, by limiting the number of stories and
height of the structure to two stories will significantly minimize the impact of vertical irregularities and
concentration of inelastic behavior from mixed
structural systems. This proposed amendment is a
continuation of an amendment adopted during
previous code adoption cycles, and is necessary due
to the increased risk of significant earthquakes in the County.
1613.5.2 Geological A joint Structural Engineers Association of Southern California (SEAOSC), Los Angeles County and
Los Angeles City Task Force investigated the
performance of concrete and masonry construction
with flexible wood diaphragm failures after the
Northridge earthquake. It was concluded at that time
that continuous ties are needed at specified spacing to control cross grain tension in the interior of the
there was a need to limi
combined orthogonal stresses within the diaphragm.
Recognizing the importance and need to continue the
ecommendation made by the task force while takin
into consideration the improved performances an
standards for diaphragm construction today, this
proposal increases the continuous tie spacing limit to
40 ft in lieu of 25 ft and to use 75% of the allowable
code diaphragm shear to determine the depth of the
sub-diaphragm in lieu of the 300 plf and is deemed
appropriate and acceptable. Due to the frequency of
this type of failure during the past significant
earthquakes, various jurisdictions within the Los
Angeles region have taken this additional step to
prevent roof or floor diaphragms from pulling away
from concrete or masonry walls. This proposed
amendment is a continuation of an amendment
adopted during previous code adoption cycles.
1613.5.3 Geological The inclusion of the importance factor in this equation has the unintended consequence of reducing the
minimum seismic separation distance for important
facilities such as hospitals, schools, police, and fire stations from adjoining structures. The proposal to omit the importance factor from Equation 12.12-1 will
ensure that a safe seismic separation distance is
provided. This proposed amendment is a continuation
of an amendment adopted during previous code
adoption cycles.
1613.6 Geological Section is added to improve seismic safety of buildings constructed on or into hillsides. Due to the local
Topographical
topographical and geological conditions of the sites
within the greater Los Angeles/Long Beach region and
their probabilities for earthquakes, this technical
amendment is required to address and clarity special
needs for buildings constructed on hillside locations. A SEAOSC and Los Angeles City Joint Task Force
investigated the performance of hillside building
failures after the Northridge earthquake. Numerous
hillside failures resulted in loss of life and millions of dollars in damage. These criteria were developed to
minimize the damage to these structures and have
been in use by both the City and County of Los
Angeles for several years with much success. This
amendment is a continuation of an amendment
adopted during previous code adoption cycles.
1613.7 Geological The greater Los Angeles/Long Beach region is a densely populated area having buildings constructed
over and near a vast array of fault systems capable of
producing major earthquakes, including, but not limited to, the 1994 Northridge Earthquake. The proposed
modification requiring safe design and construction
requirements for ceiling suspension systems to resist
seismic loads is intended to minimize the amount of
damage within a building and therefore needs to be
incorporated into the code to assure that new buildings and additions to existing buildings are designed and
constructed in accordance with the scope and
objectives of the California Building Code.
1704.6 Geological The language in section 1704.6 of the California Building Code permits the owner to employ any
Administrative
registered design professional to perform structural
observations with minimum guidelines. However, it is
important that the registered design professional
responsible for the structural design has thorough
knowledge of the building he/she designed. By
requiring the registered design professional
responsible for the structural design, or their designee, who was involved with the design to observe the
construction, the quality of the observation for major
structural elements and connections that affect the
vertical and lateral load resisting systems of the
structure will be greatly increased. Additional
requirements are provided to help clarify the role and
duties of the structural observer and the method of
reporting and correcting observed deficiencies to the
Building Official. This amendment is a continuation of
an amendment adopted during previous code adoption
cycles, and is necessary due to the increased risk of
significant earthquakes in the County.
1704.6.1 Geological With the higher seismic demand placed on buildings and structures in this region, the language in section
1704.6.1, Item 3, of the California Building Code would permit many low-rise buildings and structures with
omplex structural elements to be constructed withol
registered design professional to observe the
construction, the quality of the observation for major
structural elements and connections that affect the
vertical and lateral load resisting systems of the
structure will be greatly increased. An exception is
provided to permit simple structures and buildings to
be excluded. This amendment is a continuation of an
amendment adopted during previous code adoption
cycles, and is necessary due to the increased risk of
significant earthquakes in the County.
1705.3 Geological Results from studies after the 1994 Northridge Earthquake indicated that a significant portion of th
lamage was attributable to lack of quality contro
during construction resulting in poor performance of
the building or structure. Therefore, the amendment
restricts the exceptions to the requirement for special inspection. This amendment is a continuation of an
amendment adopted during previous code adoption
cycles, and is necessary due to the increased risk of
significant earthquakes in the County.
1705.13 Geological In Southern California, very few detached one- or two- family dwellings not exceeding two stories above
grade plane are built as "box-type" structures specially for those in hillside areas and near the oceanfront.
Many with steel moment frames or braced frames,
and/or cantilevered columns, can still be shown as
"regular" structures by calculations. With the higher
seismic demand placed on buildings and structures in
this region, the language in section 1705.13, Item 3, of the California Building Code would permit many
detached one- or two-family dwellings not exceeding
two stories above grade plane with complex structural
elements to be constructed without the benefit of
special inspections. By requiring special inspections,
the quality of major structural elements and
connections that affect the vertical and lateral loac
resisting systems of the structure will be greatl
increased. The exception should only be allowed for
detached one- or two-family dwellings not exceeding
two stories above grade plane assigned to Seismic
Design Categories A, B, and C.
1807.1.4 Climatic No substantiating data has been provided to show that a wood foundation is effective in supporting buildings
Geological and structures during a seismic event while being subject to deterioration caused by the combined
detrimental effect of constant moisture in the soil and wood-destroying organisms. Wood retaining walls,
when they are not properly treated and protected
against deterioration, have performed very poorly and
have led to slope failures. Most contractors are
typically accustomed to construction in dry and
temperate weather in the Southern California region
and are not generally familiar with the necessary
precautions and treatment of wood that makes it
suitable for both seismic events and wet applications.
The proposed amendment takes the necessary
precautionary steps to reduce or eliminate potential
problems that may result by using wood foundations
that experience relatively rapid decay due to the fact
that the region does not experience temperatures cold
enough to destroy or retard the growth and
proliferation of wood-destroying organisms. This
amendment is a continuation of an amendment
adopted during previous code adoption cycles, and is
necessary due to the local climate and the increased
risk of significant earthquakes in the County.
1807.1.6 Geological With the higher seismic demand placed on buildings and structures in this region, it is necessary to take
precautionary steps to reduce or eliminate potential
problems that may result by following prescriptive
design provisions that do not take into consideration
the surrounding environment. Plain concrete performs
poorly in withstanding the cyclic forces resulting from seismic events. In addition, no substantiating data has been provided to show that under-reinforced
foundation walls are effective in resisting seismic
loads, and may potentially lead to a higher risk of
failure. It is important that the benefit and expertise of a registered design professional be obtained to
properly analyze the structure and take these issues
into consideration. This amendment is a continuation
of an amendment adopted during previous code
adoption cycles.
1807.2 Climatic, No substantiating data has been provided to show that Geological wood foundation systems are effective in supporting buildings and structures during a seismic event while
being subject to deterioration caused by the combined
detrimental effects of constant moisture in the soil and wood-destroying organisms. Wood foundation systems
not properly treated and protected against
deterioration have performed very poorly and have led
to slope failures. Most contractors are typically

wood foundation systems that experience relatively
rapid decay due to the fact that the region does not
experience temperatures cold enough to destroy or

continuation of an amendment adopted during
previous code adoption cycles.
1807.3.1 Climatic, No substantiating data has been provided to show that Geological wood foundation systems are effective in supporting buildings and structures during a seismic event while
being subject to deterioration caused by the combined
detrimental effects of constant moisture in the soil and wood-destroying organisms. Wood foundation
systems not properly treated and protected against

does not experience temperatures cold enough to
destroy or retard the growth and proliferation of wood- destroying organisms. This proposed amendment is a
continuation of an amendment adopted during
previous code adoption cycles.
1809.3 Geological With the higher seismic demand placed on buildings and and structures in this region, it is necessary to take Figure precautionary steps to reduce or eliminate potential 1809.3 problems that may result for under-reinforced footings located on sloped surfaces. Requiring minimum
reinforcement for stepped footings is intended to
address the problem of poor performance of plain or
under-reinforced footings during a seismic event. This
amendment is a continuation of an amendment
adopted during previous code adoption cycles.
1809.7 Geological | No substantiating data has been provided to show that and Table under-reinforced footings are effective in resisting 1809.7 seismic loads, and therefore they may potentially lead to a higher risk of failure. This amendment requires
minimum reinforcement in continuous footings to
address the problem of poor performance of plain or
under-reinforced footings during a seismic event.
With the higher seismic demand placed on buildings
and structures in this region, it is necessary to take
precautionary steps to reduce or eliminate potential
problems that may result by following prescriptive
design provisions for footings that do not take into
consideration the surrounding environment. It Is
important that the benefit and expertise of a registered design professional be obtained to properly analyze
the structure and take these factors into consideration.
This amendment reflects the recommendations by the
SEAOSC and the Los Angeles City Joint Task Force,
which investigated the performance deficiencies
observed in the 1994 Northridge Earthquake. This
amendment is a continuation of an amendment
adopted during previous code adoption cycles.
1809.12 Climatic No substantiating data has been provided to show that timber footings are effective in supporting buildings
Geological and structures during a seismic event while being subject to deterioration caused by the combined
detrimental effects of constant moisture in the soil and wood-destroying organisms. Timber footings, when
they are not properly treated and protected against
deterioration, have performed very poorly. Most
contractors are typically accustomed to construction in dry and temperate weather in the Southern California
region and are not generally familiar with the
necessary precautions and treatment of wood that
makes it suitable for both seismic events and wet

the increased risk of significant earthquakes in the
County.
1810.3.2. Climatic No substantiating data has been provided to show that 4 timber footings are effective in supporting buldings
Geological and structures during a seismic event while being subject to deterioration caused by the combined
letrimental effects of constant moisture in the soil anı vood-destroying organisms. Timber footings, whe!
they are not properly treated and protected against
deterioration, have performed very poorly. Most
contractors are typically accustomed to construction in dry and temperate weather in the Southern California
region and are not generally familiar with the

amendment adopted during previous code adoption
cycles, and is necessary due to the local climate and
the increased risk of significant earthquakes in the
County.
1905.1 Geological This amendment is intended to carry over critical provisions for the design of concrete columns in
moment frames from the legacy 1997 Uniform
Bulding Code. Increased confinement is critical to the
integrity of such columns and these modifications
ensure that it is provided when certain thresholds are
exceeded. In addition, this amendment carries over
from the legacy 1997 Uniform Bulding Code a critical
provision for the design of concrete shear walls. It
essentially limits the use of very highly gravity-loaded walls in being included in the seismic load resiting
system, since their failure could have catastrophic
effect on the building. Furthermore, this amendment
was incorporated in the code based on observations
from the 1994 Northridge Earthquake. Rebar placed in
very thin concrete topping slabs have been observed
in some instances to have popped out of the slab due
to insufficient concrete coverage. This modification
ensures that critical boundary and collector rebars are placed in sufficiently thick topping slab to prevent
buckling of such reinforcements. his proposed
amendment is a continuation of an amendment
adopted during previous code adoption cycles, and is
necessary due to the increased risk of significant
earthquakes in the County.
1905.1.7 Geological This amendment requires minimum reinforcement in continuous footings to address the problem of poor
performance of plain or under-reinforced footings
during a seismic event. This amendment reflects the
recommendations by the SEAOSC and the
Los Angeles City Joint Task Force, which investigated
the poor performance observed in the 1994 Northridge
Earthquake. This amendment is a continuation of an
amendment adopted during previous code adoption
cycles, and is necessary due to the increased risk of
significant earthquakes in the County.
1905.1.8 Geological These amendments are intended to carry over critical through provisions for the design of concrete columns in 1905.1.11 moment frames from the Uniform Building Code
(UBC). Increased confinement is critical to the
integrity of such columns and these modifications
ensure that it is provided when certain thresholds are
exceeded. In addition, this amendment carries over
from the UBC a critical provision for the design of
concrete shear walls. It essentially limits the use of
very highly gravity-loaded walls from being included in the seismic load resisting system, since their failure
could have a catastrophic effect on the building.
Furthermore, this amendment was incorporated into
this Code based on observations from the 1994
Northridge Earthquake. Rebar placed in very thin
concrete topping slabs has been observed in some
instances to have popped out of the slab due to
insufficient concrete coverage. This modification
ensures that critical boundary and collector rebars are placed in sufficiently thick slabs to prevent buckling of such reinforcements. This amendment is a
continuation of an amendment adopted during
previous code adoption cycles, and is necessary due
to the increased risk of significant earthquakes in the County.
2304.10.2 Geological Due to the high geologic activities in the Southern and Table California area and the expected higher level of 2304.10.2 performance on buildings and structures, this proposed local amendment limits the use of staple
fasteners in resisting or transferring seismic forces. In September 2007, limited cyclic testing data was
provided to the ICC, Los Angeles Chapter Structural
Code Committee, showing that stapled wood
structural shear panels do not exhibit the same
behavior as nailed wood structural shear panels. The
test results of stapled wood structural shear panels
demonstrated much lower strength and drift than
nailed wood structural shear panel test results.
Therefore, the use of staples as fasteners to resist or transfer seismic forces shall not be permitted without
being substantiated by cyclic testing. This
amendment is a continuation ot a similar amendment
adopted during previous code adoption cycles, and is
necessary due to the increased risk of significant
earthquakes in the County.
2304.10.3 Geological The overdriving of nails into the structural wood panels still remains a concern when pneumatic nail
guns are used for wood structural panel shear wall
nailing. Box nails were observed to cause massive
and multiple failures of the typical 3/8-inch thick
plywood during the 1994 Northridge Earthquake. The
use of clipped head nails continues to be restricted
from use in wood structural panel shear walls where
the minimum nail head size must be maintained in
order to minimize nails from pulling through sheathing
materials. Clipped or mechanically driven nails used
in wood structural panel shear wall construction were
found to perform much worse in previous wood
structural panel shear wall testing done at the
University of California Irvine. The existing test results | indicated that, under cyclic loading, the wood
structural panel shear walls were less energy
absorbent and less ductile. The panels reached
ultimate load capacity and failed at substantially less lateral deflection than those using same-size hand-
driven nails. This amendment reflects the
recommendations by the SEAOSC and the Los
Angeles City Joint Task Force, which investigated the
poor performance observed in the 1994 Northridge
Earthquake. This amendment is a continuation ot an
amendment adopted during previous code adoption
cycles, and is necessary due to the increased risk of
significant earthquakes in the County.
2304.12.2 Climatic No substantiating data has been provided to show that .8 wood used in retaining or crib walls is effective in Geological
supporting buildings and structures during a seismic
event while being subject to deterioration caused by
the combined detrimental effect of constant moisture
in the soil and wood-destroying organisms. Wood
used in retaining or crib walls, when it is not properly treated and protected against deterioration, has
performed very poorly. Most contractors are typically
accustomed to construction in dry and temperate
weather in the Southern California region and are not
generally familiar with the necessary precautions and
treatment of wood that makes it suitable for both
seismic events and wet applications. The proposed
amendment takes the necessary precautionary steps
to reduce or eliminate potential problems that may
result by using wood in retaining or crib walls, which
experience relatively rapid decay due to the fact that
the region does not experience temperatures cold
enough to destroy or retard the growth and
proliferation of wood-destroying organisms. This
amendment is a continuation of an amendment
adopted during previous code adoption cycles, and is
necessary due to the local climate and the increased
risk of significant earthquakes in the County.
2305.4 Geological Many of the hold-down connectors currently in use do not have any acceptance report based on dynamic
testing protocols. This amendment continues to limit
the allowable capacity to 75% of the acceptance
report value to provide an additional factor of safety
for statically tested anchorage devices. Cyclic forces
imparted on buildings and structures by seismic
activity cause more damage than equivalent forces
that are applied in a static manner. Steel plate
washers will reduce the additional damage that can
result when hold-down connectors are fastened to
wood framing members. This amendment reflects the
recommendations by the SEAOSC and the
Los Angeles City Joint Task Force, which investigated
the poor performance observed in the 1994 Northridge
Earthquake. This amendment is a continuation of an
amendment adopted during previous code adoption
cycles, and is necessary due to the increased risk of
significant earthquakes in the County.
2306.2 Geological The SEAOSC and the Los Angeles City Joint Task Force that investigated damage to buildings and
2306.3
structures during the 1994 Northridge Earthquake
2307.2 recommended reducing allowable shear values in
wood structural panel shear walls or diaphragms that
2308.6.5.
were not substantiated by cyclic testing. That
1 recommendation was consistent with a report to the
2308.6.5. Governor from the Seismic Safety Commission of the 2 State of California recommending that code
requirements be "more thoroughly substantiated with
Figure testing." The allowable shear values for wood
2308.6.5. structural panel shear walls or diaphragms fastened 1 with staples are based on monotonic testing and do
and not take into consideration that earthquake forces load Figure shear wall or diaphragm in a repeating and fully 2308.6.5. reversible manner. In September 2007, limited cyclic 2 testing was conducted by a private engineering firm to determine if wood structural panels fastened with
staples would exhibit the same behavior as wood
structural panels fastened with common nails. The
test result revealed that wood structural panels
fastened with staples demonstrated much lower
strength and stiffness than wood structural panels
fastened with common nails. It was recommended
that the use of staples as fasteners for wood structural panel shear walls or diaphragms not be permitted to
resist seismic forces in structures assigned to Seismic Design Categories D, E, and F unless it can be
substantiated by cyclic testing. Furthermore, the cities and unincorporated areas within the greater
Los Angeles/Long Beach region have taken extra
measures to maintain the structural integrity of the
framing of shear walls and diaphragms designed for
high levels of seismic forces by requiring wood
sheathing be applied directly over the framing
members and prohibiting the use of panels placed
over gypsum sheathing. This amendment is intended
to prevent the undesirable performance of nails when
gypsum board softens due to cyclic earthquake
displacements and the nail ultimately does not have
any engagement in a solid material within the
thickness of the gypsum board. This amendment
continues the previous amendment adopted during
the 2007 code adoption cycle.
2308.6.8. Geological With the higher seismic demand placed on buildings 1 and structures in this region, interior walls can easily be called upon to resist over half of the seismic
loading imposed on simple buildings or structures.
Without a continuous foundation to support the bracec
wall line, seismic loads would be transterred through
other elements such as non-structural concrete slab
floors, wood floors, etc. The purpose of this
amendment is to limit the use of the exception to
structures assigned to Seismic Design Category A, B,
or C where lower seismic demands are expected.
Requiring interior braced walls be supported by
continuous foundations is intended to reduce or
eliminate the poor performance of buildings or
structures. This amendment is a continuation of an
amendment adopted during previous code adoption
cycles, and is necessary due to the increased risk of
significant earthquakes in the County.
Table Geological This amendment specifies minimum sheathing 2308.6.1 thickness and nail size and spacing so as to provide a uniform standard of construction for designers and
buildings to follow. This is intended to improve the
performance level of buildings and structures that are
subject to the higher seismic demands placed on
buildings or structure in this region. This proposed
amendment reflects the recommendations by the
SEAOSC and the Los Angeles City Joint Task Force,
which investigated the performance deficiencies
observed in the 1994 Northridge Earthquake. This
amendment is a continuation of an amendment
adopted during previous code adoption cycles, and is
necessary due to the increased risk of significant
earthquakes in the County.
2308.6.9 Geological Due to the high geologic activities in the Southern California area and the required higher level of
performance of buildings and structures, this
amendment limits the use of staple fasteners in
resisting or transferring seismic forces. In September
2007, limited cyclic testing data was provided to the
ICC, Los Angeles Chapter Structural Code
Committee, showing that stapled wood structural
shear panels do not exhibit the same behavior as
nailed wood structural shear panels. The test results
of stapled wood structural shear panels demonstrated
much lower strength and drift than nailed wood
structural shear panel test results. Theretore, the use of staples as fasteners to resist or transfer seismic
forces shall not be permitted without being

RESIDENTIAL CODE AMENDMENTS
Code Condition Explanation of Amendment
Section
R301.1.3.2 Geological Los Angeles County is prone to seismic activity due to the existence of active faults in the Southern
California area. After the 1994 Northridge
Earthquake, the Wood Frame Construction Joint
Task Force recommended that the quality of
woodframe construction needed to be greatly
improved. The Task Force recommended that
structural plans be prepared by the engineer or
architect so that plan examiners, building inspectors,
contractors, and special inspectors may logically
follow and construct the seismic force-resisting
systems as presented in the construction documents.
For buildings or structures located in Seismic Design
Category Do, D1, D2, or E that are subject to a greater level of seismic forces, the requirement to have a
California licensed architect or engineer prepare the
construction documents is intended to minimize or
reduce structural deficiencies that may cause
excessive damage or injuries in woodframe buildings.
Involvement of a registered professional will minimize
the occurrence of structural deficiencies such as plan
and vertical irregularities, improper shear transfer of the seismic force-resisting system, missed details or
connections important to the structural system, and
the improper application of the prescriptive
requirements of the California Residential Code.
R301.1.5 Geological Due to the local topographical and geological Topographical conditions of the sites within the greater Los Angeles region and their susceptibility to earthquakes, this
technical amendment is required to address and
clarify special needs for buildings constructed on
hillside locations. A joint Structural Engineers
Association of Southern California (SEAOSC) and
Los Angeles City Joint Task Force investigated the
performance of hillside building failures after the
Code Condition Explanation of Amendment
Section
Northridge Earthquake. Numerous hillside failures
resulted in loss of life and millions of dollars in
damage. These criteria were developed to minimize
the damage to these structures and have been in use
by the City and County of Los Angeles for several
years.
R301.2.2.6 Geological Los Angeles County is prone to seismic activity due to the existence of active faults in the Southern
California area. Due to the high geologic activities in the Southern California area and the necessary
higher level of pertormance required for buildings and
structures, this local amendment limits the type o
irregular conditions as specified in the 2022 California Residential Code. Such limitations are
recommended to reduce structural damage in the
event of an earthquake. The County of Los Angeles
and cities in this region have implemented these
extra measures to maintain the structural integrity of
the framing of the shear walls and all associated
elements when designed for high levels of seismic
loads.
R301.2.2.11 Geological Los Angeles County is prone to seismic activity due to the existence of active faults in the Southern
California area. Due to the high geologic activity in
the Southern California area and the necessary
higher level of performance required for buildings and
structures, this local amendment limits the potential
anchorage and supporting frame failure resulting from
additional weight. There is no limitation for weight of mechanical and plumbing fixtures and equipment in
the International Residential Code. Requirements
from ASCE 7 and the International Building Code
would permit equipment weighing up to 400 Ibs. when
mounted at 4 feet or less above the floor or attic level without engineering design. Where equipment
exceeds this requirement, it is the intent of this
Code Condition Explanation of Amendment

amendment that a registered design professional be
required to analyze if the floor support is adequate
and structurally sound.
Table Climatic This amendment will not allow unprotected openings R302.1(2) (openings that do not resist the spread of fire) to be in the exterior wall of a residential building that is
located on a property line. This amendment is
necessary due to local climatic conditions. The hot,
dry weather conditions of late summer in combination
with the Santa Ana winds creates an extreme fire
danger. Residential buildings with unprotected
openings located on a property line may permit fires
to spread from the inside of the building to adjacent
properties and likewise from exterior properties to the interior of the building.
R337.1.1 Climatic Extends the application of Chapter R337 to include additions, alterations, and/or relocated buildings.
Many areas of Los Angeles County have been
designated as Fire Hazard Severity Zones due to low
humidity, strong winds, and dry vegetation.
Additions, alterations, and/or relocated buildings have the same fire risk as new buildings.
R337.1.3 Climatic Extends the application of Chapter R337 to include additions, alterations, and/or relocated buildings.
Many areas of Los Angeles County have been

the increased risk of fire in Los Angeles County
caused by low humidity, strong winds, and dry

R401.1 Geological Los Angeles County is prone to seismic activity due to the existence of active faults in the Southern
California area. Wood foundations, even those that
are preservative-treated, encounter a higher risk of
deterioration when contacting the adjacent ground.
The required seismic anchorage and transfer of
lateral forces into the foundation system necessary
for 2-story structures and foundation walls could
become compromised at varying states of wood
decay. In addition, global structure overturning
moment and sliding resistance is reduced when
utilizing wood foundations as opposed to
conventional concrete or masonry systems.
However, non-occupied, single-story storage
structures pose significantly less risk to human safety Code Condition Explanation of Amendment
Section
and may utilize the wood foundation guidelines
specified in this Chapter.
R403.1.2 Climatic Los Angeles County is prone to seismic activity due R403.1.3.6 Geological to the existence of active faults in the Southern California area. These amendments require
R403.1.5 minimum reinforcement in continuous footings and stepped footings to address the problem of poor
Figure
performance of plain or under-reinforced footings
R403.1.5 during a seismic event. These amendments
implement the recommendations of SEAOS and the
Los Angeles City Joint Task Force resulting from their
investigation of the 1994 Northridge Earthquake.
Interior walls can easily be called upon to resist over half of the seismic loading imposed on simple
buildings or structures. Without a continuous
foundation to support the braced wall line, seismic
loads would be transferred through other elements
such as non-structural concrete slab floors, wood
floors, etc. Requiring interior braced walls to be
supported by continuous foundations is intended to
reduce or eliminate the poor performance of buildings
or structures.
R404.2 Climatic No substantiating data has been provided to show Geological that wood foundations are effective in supporting structures and buildings during a seismic event while
being subject to deterioration caused by the presence
of water and other materials detrimental to wood
foundations in the soil. Wood foundations, when they
are not properly treated and protected against
deterioration, have performed very poorly and have
led to slope failures. Most contractors are typically
accustomed to construction in dry weather in the
Southern California region and are not generally
familiar with the necessary precautions and treatment
of wood that makes it suitable for both seismic events
and wet applications. With the higher seismic
Code Condition Explanation of Amendment
Section
demand placed on buildings and structures in this
region, coupled with the dryer weather conditions, it is the intent of this amendment to reduce or eliminate
potential problems resulting from the use of wood
footings and foundations.
R501.2 Geological Due to the high geologic activities in the Southern California area and the necessary higher level of
performance required for buildings and structures,
this local amendment limits the potential anchorage
and supporting frame failure resulting from additional
weight. There is no limitation for weight of
mechanical and plumbing fixtures and equipment in
the International Residential Code. Requirements
from ASCE 7 and the International Building Code
would permit equipment weighing up to 400 Ibs. when
mounted at 4 feet or less above the floor or attic level without engineering design. Where equipment
exceeds this requirement, it is the intent of this
amendment that a registered design protessional be
required to analyze if the floor support is adequate
and structurally sound.
R503.2.4 Geological Section R502.10 of the Code does not provide any Figure prescriptive criteria to limit the maximum floor R503.2.4 opening size, nor does Section R503 provide any details to address the issue of shear transfer near
larger floor openings. With the higher seismic
demand placed on buildings and structures in this
region, it is important to ensure that a complete load
path is provided to reduce or eliminate potential
damage caused by seismic forces. Requiring
blocking with metal ties around larger floor openings
and limiting opening size is consistent with the
requirements of Section R301.2.2.2.5.
Table Geological Los Angeles County is prone to seismic activity due R602.3(1) to the existence of active faults in the Southern California area. In September 2007, limited cyclic
Code Condition Explanation of Amendment
Section
Table testing data was provided to the ICC Los Angeles
R602.3(2) Chapter Structural Code Committee showing that stapled wood structural shear panels do not exhibit
the same behavior as the nailed wood structural
shear panels. The test results of the stapled wood
structural shear panels demonstrated lower strength
and drift than the nailed wood structural shear panel
test results. Therefore, the use of staples as
fasteners for shear walls sheathed with other
materials shall not be permitted without being
substantiated by cyclic testing.
R602.3.2 Geological Los Angeles County is prone to seismic activity due Table to the existence of active faults in the Southern R602.3.2 California area. The County of Los Angeles and cities in this region have taken extra measures to
maintain the structural integrity of the framing of the shear walls when designed for high levels of seismic
loads by eliminating single top plate construction.
The performance of modern day braced wall panel
construction is directly related to an adequate load
path extending from the roof diaphragm to the
foundation system.
R602.10.2.3 Geological The greater Los Angeles region is a densely populated area having buildings and structures
constructed over and near a vast array of fault
systems capable of producing major earthquakes,
including, but not limited, to the 1994 Northridge
Earthquake. Plywood shear walls with high aspect
ratio experienced many failures during the Northridge
Earthquake. This proposed amendment specifies a
minimum braced wall length to meet an aspect ratio
consistent with other sections of the California
Residential Code, and to assure that new buildings
and additions to existing buildings are designed and
constructed in accordance with the scope and
objectives of the California Residential Code. This is
Code Condition Explanation of Amendment
Section
intended to improve the performance level of
buildings and structures that are subject to the higher seismic demands and reduce and limit potential
damage to property. This proposed amendment
reflects the recommendations by SEAOSC and the
Los Angeles City Joint Task Force that investigated
the poor performance observed during the 1994
Northridge Earthquake.
Table Geological Due to the high geologic activities in the Southern R602.10.3(3) California area and the necessary higher level of performance of buildings and structures, this local
amendment reduces or eliminates the allowable
shear values for shear walls sheathed with lath,
plaster, or gypsum board. The poor performance of
such shear walls sheathed with other materials in the
1994 Northridge Earthquake was investigated by
SEAOSC and the Los Angeles City Joint Task Force.
The County of Los Angeles and cities in this region

integrity of the framing of the shear walls when
designed for high levels of seismic loads.
Table Geological 3/8" thick 3 ply-plywood shear walls experienced R602.10.4 many tailures during the Northridge Earthquake. This amendment specifies minimum WSP sheathing
thickness and nail size and spacing, so as to provide
a uniform standard of construction to improve the
performance level of buildings and structures, given
the potential for higher seismic demands placed on
buildings or structure in this region. This proposed
amendment reflects the recommendations by
SEAOSC and the Los Angeles City Joint Task Force
following the 1994 Northridge Earthquake. In
September 2007, cyclic testing data was provided to
the Los Angeles Chapter Structural Code Committee
showing that stapled wood structural shear panels
underperformed nailed wood structural shear panels.
Code Condition Explanation of Amendment

Test results of the stapled wood structural shear
panels appeared much lower in strength and drift
than the nailed wood structural shear panel test
results.
Table Geological Los Angeles County is prone to seismic activity due R602.10.5 to the existence of active faults in the Southern California area. The poor performance of such shear
walls sheathed in the 1994 Northridge Earthquake
was investigated by SEAOSC and the Los Angeles
City Joint Task Force. The County of Los Angeles
and cities in this region have taken extra measures to
maintain the structural integrity with respect to the
"maximum shear wall aspect ratios" of the framing of
the shear walls when designed for high levels of
seismic loads. This amendment is consistent with the
shear wall aspect ratio provision of Section 4.3.4 of
AWC SDPWS-2015.
Figure Geological 3/8" thick 3 ply-plywood shear walls experienced R602.10.6.1 many failures during the Northridge Earthquake. The poor performance of shear walls in the 1994

EDITION; AND ADOPTING LOCAL AMENDMENTS THERETO, AND
MAKING FINDING FOR SAME
BACKGROUND
Every three years, the State of California Building Standards Commission ("BSC") adopts the California Building Standards Code ("Code"), which sets forth construction standards that must be followed Statewide. Pursuant to Health and Safety Code Sections 17958 and 17958.5, cities and counties will automatically be subject to the Code 180 days after publication but may adopt amendments so long as the amendments are reasonably necessary based on specific findings because of local climatic, geological, or topographical conditions. Since the County of Los Angeles ("County") provides building and safety services to the City and evaluates the Code for local climatic, geological, or topographical conditions the City typically adopts or considers the County amendments. For developers, designers, and contractors, consistent standards across the County and the City can simplify the development process.
DISCUSSION
In January 2022, the BSC adopted the latest Code that include requirements for building, existing building, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, and residential construction. The Code was published on July 1, 2022 and becomes effective on January 1, 2023. On November 15, 2022, the County adopted its amendments.
Historically, the City has adopted by reference the Los Angeles County amendments for building, existing building, electrical, mechanical, plumbing and residential codes. Attachment 1 of the Urgency Ordinance No. 821 U and Ordinance No. 820 provides a list of the County's recent amendments along with the climatic, geologic, and topographic conditions that substantiates each modification.
In short, the City agrees with the County amendments as they aid building resilience in crisis situations. However, the County adopted certain amendments to the plumbing code that do not aid resilience and present increased costs to new developments. For these reasons, the County amendments related to the reuse of graywater, names sections 206.0, 210.H, 304.1, and 601.2.3, have been excluded from the proposed ordinances. Exhibit E contains an excerpt of the County's plumbing amendments with sections 206.0, 210.H, 304.1, and 601.2.3 stricken out. Excluding these sections is consistent with the City's code adoption in 2019.
Due to the timing of the County finishing its amendments (November 15, 2022) and the effective date of the State Code (January 1, 2023), staff recommends that the City Council adopt the County amendments as both an urgency ordinance, to take effect on January 1, 2023, and a regular ordinance, to ensure permanent codification. Otherwise, under the typical code adoption timelines, the State Code would apply to new projects submitted to the City from January 1, 2023 to when the County's amendments become effective (approximately February 12, 2023). In other words, there would be a lag period from when the State Code would apply, then not apply after about one month.
To proceed with adopting the 2022 California Building Codes with the Los Angeles County amendments, staff recommends the City Council approve Urgency Ordinance No. 821 U and Ordinance No. 820. Urgency Ordinance No. 821 U requires a 4/5th vote to pass and will be effective January 1, 2023 for a period not greater than 45 days. If Ordinance No. 820 is introduced, it will be brought back to the City Council for public hearing and adoption on January 12, 2023 and will be effective on February 12, 2023.
The ordinances have been determined to be except from the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to State Guidelines 15061(b)(3) as a project that has no potential for causing a significant effect on the environment.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact related to the adoption of updated building standards.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council: (1) Waive reading of Ordinance No. 820 and read by title only; and (2) introduce Ordinance No. 820 - An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Industry Adopting by Reference, Pursuant to Government Code Section 50022.2, Title 26 of the Los Angeles County Building Code, Incorporating by Reference the California Building Code 2022 Edition; Title 28 of the Los Angeles County Plumbing Code, Incorporating by Reference the California Plumbing Code 2022 Edition; Title 27 of the Los Angeles County Electrical Code, Incorporating by Reference the California Electrical Code 2022 Edition; Title 29 of the Los Angeles County Mechanical Code, Incorporating by Reference the California Mechanical Code 2022 Edition; Title 30 of the Los Angeles County Residential Code, Incorporating by Reference the California Residential Code 2022 Edition; Title 33 of the Los Angeles County Existing Building Code, Incorporating by Reference the California Existing Building Code 2022 Edition; Adopting Local Amendments Thereto, and Making Findings for Same; and adopting a Notice of Exemption regarding same.

SAME
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF INDUSTRY DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. FINDINGS.
The City Council of the City of Industry (the "City") adopts this ordinance based upon the following findings and determinations:
(A) I Pursuant to California Health and Safety Code Sections 17958.5, 17958.7 and 18941.5, the City Council hereby makes each finding of reasonable necessity for modifications as stated separately in Attachment 1, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, and as set forth in the Los Angeles County Code. These modifications to the California Building Standards Code, incorporating the model codes are reasonably necessary due to the high potential for seismic activity which make structures particularly vulnerable to structural damage, as well as local climatic, geological and/or topographical conditions in the County of Los Angeles. (B) California State law requires localities, such as the City of Industry, to adopt the 2022 California Building Standards Code and any modifications there to, by January 1, 2023. The City Council finds that it is essential and imperative that the City adopt this Ordinance, adopting by reference the above-listed Los Angeles County Code and modifications necessitated by local geological conditions by that date. The City Council further finds that in the absence of legislation effective by that date, technical codes adequate to meet the City's special circumstances will not be in effect and hazards will be posed which would immediately threaten the public peace, health, and safety.
Accordingly, the City Council finds that this Ordinance is necessary, and is adopted for the immediate preservation of public peace, health and safety of the City and its residents.
SECTION 2. CEQA.
Upon independent review and consideration of the information contained in the Staff Report and the Notice of Exemption for this Ordinance, the City Council hereby finds and determines that this Ordinance does not have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Accordingly, the City Council finds and determines that this Ordinance is exempt from California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA", Public Resources Code § 21000 et seq.) pursuant to the general rule in Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines (Chapter 3, of Title 14, of the California Code of Regulations) that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment and therefore the City Council approves and adopts the Notice of Exemption.

BUILDING CODE AMENDMENTS
Code Condition Explanation of Amendment
Section
106.3.2, Administrativ The greater Los Angeles/Long Beach region is Item 2 e Geologic situated over a vast array of earthquake fault systems capable of producing major earthquakes, including, but
not limited to, the 1994 Northridge Earthquake. Due to
the risk of geologic activities in the Southern California area, buildings and structures require a high level of
performance. This existing local enforcement provision
limits the height of fences built without a permit in
order to reduce the chance of failure of fences that
may be built improperly. Because fences that are
xempt from permits are constructed without th
enefit of inspection to verify that proper constructio
methods are used, it has been observed that fences
are commonly built without proper footings and/or
reinforcement, which causes leaning and collapse of
the fence.

Fire Hazard Severity Zones due to the increased risk
of fire caused by low humidity, strong winds, and dry

705A.2 Climatic Disallows the use of wood-shingle/wood-shake roofs and requires the use of Class A roof covering due to
the increased risk of fire in the County caused by low
humidity, strong winds, and dry vegetation in high fire severity zones.
1031.2.1 Geological The greater Los Angeles/Long Beach region is a densely populated area having buildings constructed
over and near a vast array of earthquake fault systems
capable of producing major earthquakes, including, but
not limited to, the 1994 Northridge Earthquake. The
proposed amendment is intended to prevent
occupants from being trapped in a building and to
allow rescue workers to easily enter after an
earthquake.
Table Geological Table amended to require proper anchorage for clay or 1507.3.7 concrete tiles from sliding or rotating due to the increased risk of significant earthquakes in the County.
This amendment incorporates the design provisions
developed based on detailed study of the 1994
Northridge and the 1971 Sylmar earthquakes.
1613.5 Geological Observed damages to one- and two-family dwellings of light frame construction after the Northridge
and
Earthquake may have been partially attributed to
1613.5.1 vertical irregularities common to this type of occupancy and construction. In an effort to improve quality of
construction and incorporate lesson learned from
studies after the Northridge Earthquake, the proposed
Code Condition Explanation of Amendment
Section
modification to ASCE 7-16, Section 12.2.3.1,
Exception 3, by limiting the number of stories and
height of the structure to two stories will significantly minimize the impact of vertical irregularities and
concentration of inelastic behavior from mixed
structural systems. This proposed amendment is a
continuation of an amendment adopted during
previous code adoption cycles, and is necessary due
to the increased risk of significant earthquakes in the County.
1613.5.2 Geological A joint Structural Engineers Association of Southern California (SEAOSC), Los Angeles County and
Los Angeles City Task Force investigated the
performance of concrete and masonry construction
with flexible wood diaphragm failures after the
Vorthridge earthquake. It was concluded at that time
that continuous ties are needed at specified spacing te control cross grain tension in the interior of th
diaphragm. Additionally, there was a need to limi
subdiaphragm allowable shear loads to control
combined orthogonal stresses within the diaphragm.
Recognizing the importance and need to continue the
recommendation made by the task force while taking
into consideration the improved performances and
standards for diaphragm construction today, this
proposal increases the continuous tie spacing limit to
40 ft in lieu of 25 ft and to use 75% of the allowable
code diaphragm shear to determine the depth of the
sub-diaphragm in lieu of the 300 plf and is deemed
appropriate and acceptable. Due to the frequency of
this type of failure during the past significant
earthquakes, various jurisdictions within the Los
Angeles region have taken this additional step to
prevent roof or floor diaphragms from pulling away
from concrete or masonry walls. This proposed
amendment is a continuation of an amendment
adopted during previous code adoption cycles.
1613.5.3 Geological The inclusion of the importance factor in this equation has the unintended consequence of reducing the
minimum seismic separation distance for important
facilities such as hospitals, schools, police, and fire stations from adjoining structures. The proposal to omit the importance factor from Equation 12.12-1 Will
ensure that a safe seismic separation distance is
provided. This proposed amendment is a continuation
of an amendment adopted during previous code
adoption cycles.
1613.6 Geological Section is added to improve seismic safety of buildings Topographical constructed on or into hillsides. Due to the local topographical and geological conditions of the sites
within the greater Los Angeles/Long Beach region and
their probabilities for earthquakes, this technical
amendment is required to address and clarify special
needs for buildings constructed on hillside locations. A SEAOSC and Los Angeles City Joint Task Force
investigated the performance of hillside building
failures after the Northridge earthquake. Numerous
hillside failures resulted in loss of life and millions of dollars in damage. These criteria were developed to
minimize the damage to these structures and have
been in use by both the City and County of Los
Angeles for several years with much success. This
amendment is a continuation of an amendment
adopted during previous code adoption cycles.
1613.7 Geological The greater Los Angeles/Long Beach region is a densely populated area having buildings constructed
over and near a vast array of fault systems capable of
producing major earthquakes, including, but not limited to, the 1994 Northridge Earthquake. The proposed
modification requiring safe design and construction
requirements for ceiling suspension systems to resist
seismic loads is intended to minimize the amount of
damage within a building and therefore needs to be
incorporated into the code to assure that new buildings and additions to existing buildings are designed and
constructed in accordance with the scope and
objectives of the California Building Code.
1704.6 Geological The language in section 1704.6 of the California Building Code permits the owner to employ any
Administrative
registered design professional to perform structural
observations with minimum guidelines. However, it is
important that the registered design professional
responsible for the structural design has thorough
knowledge of the building he/she designed. By
requiring the registered design professional
responsible for the structural design, or their designee, who was involved with the design to observe the
construction, the quality of the observation for major
structural elements and connections that affect the
vertical and lateral load resisting systems of the
requirements are provided to help clarify the role and
reporting and correcting observed deficiencies to the
Building Official. This amendment is a continuation of
an amendment adopted during previous code adoption
cycles, and is necessary due to the increased risk of
significant earthquakes in the County.
1704.6.1 Geological With the higher seismic demand placed on buildings and structures in this region, the language in section
1704.6.1, Item 3, of the California Building Code would permit many low-rise buildings and structures with
complex structural elements to be constructed without
the benefit of a structural observation. By requiring a registered design professional to observe the
construction, the quality of the observation for major
structural elements and connections that affect the
vertical and lateral load resisting systems of the
structure will be greatly increased. An exception is
provided to permit simple structures and buildings to
be excluded. This amendment is a continuation of an
amendment adopted during previous code adoption
cycles, and is necessary due to the increased risk of
significant earthquakes in the County.
1705.3 Geological Results from studies after the 1994 Northridge Earthquake indicated that a significant portion of the
damage was attributable to lack of quality control
during construction resulting in poor performance of
the building or structure. Therefore, the amendment
restricts the exceptions to the requirement for special inspection. This amendment is a continuation of an
amendment adopted during previous code adoption
cycles, and is necessary due to the increased risk of
significant earthquakes in the County.
1705.13 Geological In Southern California, very few detached one- or two- family dwellings not exceeding two stories above
grade plane are built as "box-type" structures specially for those in hillside areas and near the oceanfront.
Many with steel moment frames or braced frames,
and/or cantilevered columns, can still be shown as
"regular" structures by calculations. With the higher
Seis region the lanaced in bein 1a05 team 3, or
the California Building Code would permit many
detached one- or two-family dwellings not exceeding
two stories above grade plane with complex structural
elements to be constructed without the benefit of
special inspections. By requiring special inspections,
the quality of major structural elements and
connections that affect the vertical and lateral load
resisting systems of the structure will be greatly
increased. The exception should only be allowed for
detached one- or two-family dwellings not exceeding
two stories above grade plane assigned to Seismic
Design Categories A, B, and C.
1807.1.4 Climatic No substantiating data has been provided to show that a wood foundation is effective in supporting buildings
Geological and structures during a seismic event while being subject to deterioration caused by the combined

1905.1 Geological This amendment is intended to carry over critical provisions for the design of concrete columns in
moment frames from the legacy 1997 Unitorm
Building Code. Increased confinement is critical to the integrity of such columns and these modifications
ensure that it is provided when certain thresholds are
exceeded. In addition, this amendment carries over
from the legacy 1997 Uniform Building Code a critical
provision for the design of concrete shear walls. It
essentially limits the use of very highly gravity-loaded walls in being included in the seismic load resisting
system, since their failure could have catastrophic
effect on the building. Furthermore, this amendment
was incorporated in the code based on observations
from the 1994 Northridge Earthquake. Rebar placed in
very thin concrete topping slabs have been observed
in some instances to have popped out of the slab due
to insufficient concrete coverage. This modification
ensures that critical boundary and collector rebars are placed in sufficiently thick topping slab to prevent
buckling of such reinforcements. This proposed
amendment is a continuation of an amendment
adopted during previous code adoption cycles, and is
necessary due to the increased risk of significant
earthquakes in the County.
1905.1.7 Geological This amendment requires minimum reinforcement in continuous footings to address the problem of poor
performance of plain or under-reinforced footings
during a seismic event. This amendment reflects the
recommendations by the SEAOSC and the
Los Angeles City Joint Task Force, which investigated
the poor performance observed in the 1994 Northridge
Earthquake. This amendment is a continuation of an
amendment adopted during previous code adoption

1905.1.8 Geological These amendments are intended to carry over critical through provisions for the design of concrete columns in 1905.1.11 moment frames from the Uniform Building Code
(UBC). Increased confinement is critical to the
integrity of such columns and these modifications

2304.10.2 Geological Due to the high geologic activities in the Southern and Table California area and the expected higher level of 2304.10.2 performance on buildings and structures, this proposed local amendment limits the use of staple
fasteners in resisting or transferring seismic forces. In September 2007, limited cyclic testing data was
provided to the ICC, Los Angeles Chapter Structural
Code Committee, showing that stapled wood
structural shear panels do not exhibit the same
behavior as nailed wood structural shear panels. The
test results of stapled wood structural shear panels
demonstrated much lower strength and drift than
nailed wood structural shear panel test results.
Therefore, the use of staples as fasteners to resist or transfer seismic forces shall not be permitted without
being substantiated by cyclic testing. This
amendment is a continuation of a similar amendment
adopted during previous code adoption cycles, and is
necessary due to the increased risk of significant
earthquakes in the County.
2304.10.3 Geological The overdriving of nails into the structural wood panels still remains a concern when pneumatic nail
guns are used for wood structural panel shear wall
nailing. Box nails were observed to cause massive
and multiple failures of the typical 3/8-inch thick
plywood during the 1994 Northridge Earthquake. The
use of clipped head nails continues to be restricted
from use in wood structural panel shear walls where
the minimum nail head size must be maintained in
order to minimize nails from pulling through sheathing
materials. Clipped or mechanically driven nails used
in wood structural panel shear wall construction were
found to perform much worse in previous wood
structural panel shear wall testing done at the
University of California Irvine. The existing test results indicated that, under cyclic loading, the wood
structural panel shear walls were less energy
absorbent and less ductile. The panels reached
ultimate load capacity and failed at substantially less lateral deflection than those using same-size hand-
driven nails. This amendment reflects the
recommendations by the SEAOSC and the Los
Angeles City Joint Task Force, which investigated the
poor pertormance observed in the 1994 Northridge
Earthquake. This amendment is a continuation of an
amendment adopted during previous code adoption
cycles, and is necessary due to the increased risk of
significant earthquakes in the County.
2304.12.2 Climatic No substantiating data has been provided to show that .8 wood used in retaining or crib walls is effective in Geological
supporting buildings and structures during a seismic
event while being subject to deterioration caused by
the combined detrimental effect of constant moisture
in the soil and wood-destroying organisms. Wood
used in retaining or crib walls, when it is not properly treated and protected against deterioration, has
performed very poorly. Most contractors are typically
accustomed to construction in dry and temperate

to reduce or'eliminate potential problems that may
result by using wood in retaining or crib walls, which
experience relatively rapid decay due to the fact that
the region does not experience temperatures cold

amendment is a continuation of an amendment
adopted during previous code adoption cycles, and is
necessary due to the local climate and the increased
risk of significant earthquakes in the County.
2305.4 Geological Many of the hold-down connectors currently in use do not have any acceptance report based on dynamic
testing protocols. This amendment continues to limit
the allowable capacity to 75% of the acceptance
report value to provide an additional factor of safety
for statically tested anchorage devices. Cyclic forces
imparted on buildings and structures by seismic
activity cause more damage than equivalent forces
that are applied in a static manner. Steel plate
washers will reduce the additional damage that can
result when hold-down connectors are fastened to
wood framing members. This amendment reflects the
recommendations by the SEAOSC and the
Los Angeles City Joint Task Force, which investigated
the poor performance observed in the 1994 Northridge
Earthquake. This amendment is a continuation of an
amendment adopted during previous code adoption
cycles, and is necessary due to the increased risk of
significant earthquakes in the County.
2306.2 Geological The SEAOSC and the Los Angeles City Joint Task Force that investigated damage to buildings and
2306.3 structures during the 1994 Northridge Earthquake 2307.2 recommended reducing allowable shear values in
wood structural panel shear walls or diaphragms that
2308.6.5. were not substantiated by cyclic testing. That 1 recommendation was consistent with a report to the
2308.6.5. Governor from the Seismic Safety Commission of the 2 State of California recommending that code
requirements be "more thoroughly substantiated with
Figure testing." The allowable shear values for wood
2308.6.5. structural panel shear walls or diaphragms fastened 1 with staples are based on monotonic testing and do
and not take into consideration that earthquake forces load Figure shear wall or diaphragm in a repeating and fully 2308.6.5. reversible manner. In September 2007, limited cyclic 2 testing was conducted by a private engineering firm to determine if wood structural panels fastened with
staples would exhibit the same behavior as wood
structural panels fastened with common nails. The
test result revealed that wood structural panels
fastened with staples demonstrated much lower
strength and stiffness than wood structural panels
fastened with common nails. It was recommended
that the use of staples as fasteners for wood structural panel shear walls or diaphragms not be permitted to
resist seismic forces in structures assigned to Seismic Design Categories D, E, and F unless it can be
substantiated by cyclic testing. Furthermore, the cities and unincorporated areas within the greater
Los Angeles/Long Beach region have taken extra
measures to maintain the structural integrity of the
framing of shear walls and diaphragms designed for
high levels of seismic forces by requiring wood
sheathing be applied directly over the framing
members and prohibiting the use of panels placed
over gypsum sheathing. This amendment is intended
to prevent the undesirable performance of nails when
gypsum board softens due to cyclic earthquake
isplacements and the nail ultimately does not hav
any engagement in a solid material within th
thickness of the gypsum board. This amendment
continues the previous amendment adopted during
the 2007 code adoption cycle.
2308.6.8. Geological With the higher seismic demand placed on buildings and structures in this region, interior walls can easily be called upon to resist over half of the seismic
loading imposed on simple buildings or structures.
Without a continuous foundation to support the braced
wall line, seismic loads would be transferred through
other elements such as non-structural concrete slab
floors, wood floors, etc. The purpose of this
amendment is to limit the use of the exception to
structures assigned to Seismic Design Category A, B,
or C where lower seismic demands are expected.
Requiring interior braced walls be supported by
continuous foundations is intended to reduce or
eliminate the poor performance of buildings or
structures. This amendment is a continuation of an
amendment adopted during previous code adoption
cycles, and is necessary due to the increased risk of
significant earthquakes in the County.
Table Geological This amendment specifies minimum sheathing 2308.6.1 thickness and nail size and spacing so as to provide a uniform standard of construction for designers and
buildings to follow. This is intended to improve the
performance level of buildings and structures that are
subject to the higher seismic demands placed on
buildings or structure in this region. This proposed
amendment reflects the recommendations by the
SEAOSC and the Los Angeles City Joint Task Force,
which investigated the performance deficiencies
observed in the 1994 Northridge Earthquake. This
amendment is a continuation of an amendment
adopted during previous code adoption cycles, and is
necessary due to the increased risk of significant

2308.6.9 Geological Due to the high geologic activities in the Southern California area and the required higher level of
performance of buildings and structures, this

RESIDENTIAL CODE AMENDMENTS
Code Condition Explanation of Amendment
Section
R301.1.3.2 Geological Los Angeles County is prone to seismic activity due to the existence of active faults in the Southern
California area. After the 1994 Northridge
Earthquake, the Wood Frame Construction Joint
Task Force recommended that the quality of
woodframe construction needed to be greatly
improved. The Task Force recommended that
structural plans be prepared by the engineer or
architect so that plan examiners, building inspectors,
contractors, and special inspectors may logically
follow and construct the seismic force-resisting
systems as presented in the construction documents.
For buildings or structures located in Seismic Design
Category Do, D1, D2, or E that are subject to a greater level of seismic forces, the requirement to have a
California licensed architect or engineer prepare the
construction documents is intended to minimize or
reduce structural deficiencies that may cause
excessive damage or injuries in woodframe buildings.
Involvement of a registered professional will minimize
the occurrence of structural deficiencies such as plan
and vertical irregularities, improper shear transfer of the seismic force-resisting system, missed details or
connections important to the structural system, and
the improper application of the prescriptive
requirements of the California Residential Code.
R301.1.5 Geological Due to the local topographical and geological Topographical conditions of the sites within the greater Los Angeles region and their susceptibility to earthquakes, this
technical amendment is required to address and
clarify special needs for buildings constructed on
hillside locations. A joint Structural Engineers
Association of Southern California (SEAOSC) and
Los Angeles City Joint Task Force investigated the
performance of hillside building failures after the
Code Condition Explanation of Amendment
Section
Northridge Earthquake. Numerous hillside failures
resulted in loss of life and millions of dollars in
damage. These criteria were developed to minimize
the damage to these structures and have been in use
by the City and County of Los Angeles for several
years.
R301.2.2.6 Geological Los Angeles County is prone to seismic activity due to the existence of active faults in the Southern
California area. Due to the high geologic activities in the Southern California area and the necessary
higher level of performance required for buildings and
this local amendment limits the tvoe o
stregular conditions as specified in the 2022 California Residential Code. Such limitations are
recommended to reduce structural damage in the
event of an earthquake. The County of Los Angeles
and cities in this region have implemented these
extra measures to maintain the structural integrity of
the framing of the shear walls and all associated
elements when designed for high levels of seismic
loads.
R301.2.2.11 Geological Los Angeles County is prone to seismic activity due to the existence of active faults in the Southern
California area. Due to the high geologic activity in
the Southern California area and the necessary
higher level of performance required for buildings and
structures, this local amendment limits the potential
anchorage and supporting frame failure resulting from
additional weight. There is no limitation for weight of mechanical and plumbing fixtures and equipment in
the International Residential Code. Requirements
from ASCE 7 and the International Building Code
would permit equipment weighing up to 400 Ibs. when
mounted at 4 feet or less above the floor or attic level without engineering design. Where equipment
exceeds this requirement, it is the intent of this
Code Condition Explanation of Amendment
Section
amendment that a registered design professional be
required to analyze if the floor support is adequate
and structurally sound.
Table Climatic This amendment will not allow unprotected openings R302.1(2) (openings that do not resist the spread of fire) to be in the exterior wall of a residential building that is
located on a property line. This amendment is
necessary due to local climatic conditions. The hot,
dry weather conditions of late summer in combination
with the Santa Ana winds creates an extreme fire
danger. Residential buildings with unprotected
openings located on a property line may permit fires
to spread from the inside of the building to adjacent
properties and likewise from exterior properties to the interior of the building.

R337.5.2 Climatic Disallows the use of wood-shingle/wood-shake roofs and requires the use of Class A roof covering due to
the increased risk of fire in Los Angeles County
caused by low humidity, strong winds, and dry
vegetation in Fire Hazard Severity Zones.
R401.1 Geological Los Angeles County is prone to seismic activity due to the existence of active faults in the Southern
California area. Wood foundations, even those that
are preservative-treated, encounter a higher risk of
deterioration when contacting the adjacent ground.
The required seismic anchorage and transfer of
lateral forces into the foundation system necessary
for 2-story structures and foundation walls could
become compromised at varying states of wood
decay. In addition, global structure overturning
moment and sliding resistance is reduced when
utilizing wood foundations as opposed to
conventional concrete or masonry systems.
However, non-occupied, single-story storage
structures pose significantly less risk to human safety Code Condition Explanation of Amendment
Section
and may utilize the wood foundation guidelines
specified in this Chapter.
R403.1.2 Climatic Los Angeles County is prone to seismic activity due R403.1.3.6 Geological to the existence of active faults in the Southern California area. These amendments require
R403.1.5 minimum reinforcement in continuous footings and stepped footings to address the problem of poor
Figure performance of plain or under-reinforced footings R403.1.5
during a seismic event. These amendments
implement the recommendations of SEAOSC and the
Los Angeles City Joint Task Force resulting from their
investigation of the 1994 Northridge Earthquake.
Interior walls can easily be called upon to resist over half of the seismic loading imposed on simple
buildings or structures. Without a continuous
foundation to support the braced wall line, seismic
loads would be transferred through other elements
such as non-structural concrete slab floors, wood
floors, etc. Requiring interior braced walls to be
supported by continuous foundations is intended to
reduce or eliminate the poor performance of buildings
or structures.
R404.2 Climatic No substantiating data has been provided to show Geological that wood foundations are effective in supporting structures and buildings during a seismic event while
being subject to deterioration caused by the presence
of water and other materials detrimental to wood
foundations in the soil. Wood foundations, when they
are not properly treated and protected against
deterioration, have performed very poorly and have
led to slope failures. Most contractors are typically
accustomed to construction in dry weather in the
Southern California region and are not generally
familiar with the necessary precautions and treatment
of wood that makes it suitable for both seismic events
and wet applications. With the higher seismic
Code Condition Explanation of Amendment
Section
demand placed on buildings and structures in this
region, coupled with the dryer weather conditions, it is the intent of this amendment to reduce or eliminate
potential problems resulting from the use of wood
footings and foundations.
R501.2 Geological Due to the high geologic activities in the Southern California area and the necessary higher level of
performance required for buildings and structures,
this local amendment limits the potential anchorage
and supporting frame failure resulting from additiona
weight. There is no limitation for weight of
mechanical and plumbing fixtures and equipment in
the International Residential Code. Requirements
from ASCE 7 and the International Building Code
would permit equipment weighing up to 400 Ibs. when
mounted at 4 feet or less above the floor or attic level without engineering design. Where equipment
exceeds this requirement, it is the intent of this
amendment that a registered design professional be
required to analyze if the floor support is adequate
and structurally sound.
R503.2.4 Geological Section R502.10 of the Code does not provide any prescriptive criteria to limit the maximum floor
Figure
R503.2.4 opening size, nor does Section R503 provide any details to address the issue of shear transfer near
larger floor openings. With the higher seismic
demand placed on buildings and structures in this
region, it is important to ensure that a complete load
path is provided to reduce or eliminate potential
damage caused by seismic forces. Requiring
blocking with metal ties around larger floor openings
and limiting opening size is consistent with the
requirements of Section R301.2.2.2.5.
Table Geological Los Angeles County is prone to seismic activity due R602.3(1) to the existence of active faults in the Southern California area. In September 2007, limited cyclic
Code Condition Explanation of Amendment
Section
Table testing data was provided to the ICC Los Angeles
R602.3(2) Chapter Structural Code Committee showing that stapled wood structural shear panels do not exhibit
the same behavior as the nailed wood structural
shear panels. The test results of the stapled wood
structural shear panels demonstrated lower strength
and drift than the nailed wood structural shear panel
test results. Therefore, the use of staples as
fasteners for shear walls sheathed with other
materials shall not be permitted without being
substantiated by cyclic testing.
R602.3.2 Geological Los Angeles County is prone to seismic activity due Table to the existence of active faults in the Southern R602.3.2 California area. The County of Los Angeles and cities in this region have taken extra measures to
maintain the structural integrity of the framing of the shear walls when designed for high levels of seismic
loads by eliminating single top plate construction.
The performance of modern day braced wall panel
construction is directly related to an adequate load
path extending from the roof diaphragm to the
foundation system.
R602.10.2.3 Geological The greater Los Angeles region is a densely populated area having buildings and structures
constructed over and near a vast array of fault
systems capable of producing major earthquakes,
including, but not limited, to the 1994 Northridge
Earthquake. Plywood shear walls with high aspect
ratio experienced many failures during the Northridge
Earthquake. This proposed amendment specifies a
minimum braced wall length to meet an aspect ratio
consistent with other sections of the California
Residential Code, and to assure that new buildings
and additions to existing buildings are designed and
constructed in accordance with the scope and
objectives of the California Residential Code. This is
Code Condition Explanation of Amendment
Section
intended to improve the performance level of
buildings and structures that are subject to the higher seismic demands and reduce and limit potential
damage to property. This proposed amendment
reflects the recommendations by SEAOSC and the
Los Angeles City Joint Task Force that investigated
the poor performance observed during the 1994
Northridge Earthquake.
Table Geological Due to the high geologic activities in the Southern R602.10.3(3) California area and the necessary higher level of performance of buildings and structures, this local
amendment reduces or eliminates the allowable
shear values for shear walls sheathed with lath,
plaster, or gypsum board. The poor performance of
such shear walls sheathed with other materials in the
1994 Northridge Earthquake was investigated by
SEAOSC and the Los Angeles City Joint Task Force.
The County of Los Angeles and cities in this region
have taken extra measures to maintain the structural
integrity of the framing of the shear walls when
designed for high levels of seismic loads.
Table Geological 3/8" thick 3 ply-plywood shear walls experienced R602.10.4 many failures during the Northridge Earthquake. This amendment specifies minimum WSP sheathing
thickness and nail size and spacing, so as to provide
a uniform standard of construction to improve the
performance level of buildings and structures, given
the potential for higher seismic demands placed on
buildings or structure in this region. This proposed
amendment reflects the recommendations by
SEAOSC and the Los Angeles City Joint Task Force
following the 1994 Northridge Earthquake. In
September 2007, cyclic testing data was provided to
the Los Angeles Chapter Structural Code Committee
showing that stapled wood structural shear panels
underperformed nailed wood structural shear panels.
Code Condition Explanation of Amendment
Section
Test results of the stapled wood structural shear
panels appeared much lower in strength and drift
than the nailed wood structural shear panel test
results.
Table Geological Los Angeles County is prone to seismic activity due R602.10.5 to the existence of active faults in the Southern California area. The poor performance of such shear
walls sheathed in the 1994 Northridge Earthquake
was investigated by SEAOSC and the Los Angeles
City Joint Task Force. The County of Los Angeles
and cities in this region have taken extra measures to
maintain the structural integrity with respect to the
"maximum shear wall aspect ratios" of the framing of
the shear walls when designed for high levels of
seismic loads. This amendment is consistent with the
shear wall aspect ratio provision of Section 4.3.4 of
AWC SDPWS-2015.
Figure Geological 3/8" thick 3 ply-plywood shear walls experienced R602.10.6.1 many failures during the Northridge Earthquake. The poor performance of shear walls in the 1994
Northridge Earthquake was investigated by SEAOSC
and the Los Angeles City Joint Task Force. Box nails
were observed to cause massive and multiple failures
of the typical 3/8" thick 3 ply-plywood during the
Northridge Earthquake. The County of Los Angeles
and cities in this region have taken extra measures to
maintain the structural integrity of the framing of the shear walls when designed for high levels of seismic
loads. The performance of modern day braced wall
panel construction is directly related to an adequate
load path extending from the roof diaphragm to the

integrity of the framing of the shear walls when
designed for high levels of seismic loads. Box nails
were observed to cause massive and multiple failures
of typical 3/8-inch thick plywood during the Northridge Earthquake. This change to the minimum lap splice
requirement is consistent with Section 12.16.1 of ACI
318-11. This amendment is a continuation of
amendments adopted during prior Code adoption
cycles.
Figure Geological 3/8" thick 3 ply-plywood shear walls experienced R602.10.6.4 many failures during the Northridge Earthquake. The poor performance of such shear walls in the 1994
Northridge Earthquake was investigated by SEAOSC
and the Los Angeles City Joint Task Force. The
County of Los Angeles and cities in this region have
taken extra measures to maintain the structural
integrity of the framing of the shear walls when
designed for high levels of seismic loads. The
proposal in which "washers shall be a minimum
of 0.229 inch by 3 inches by 3 inches in size" is
consistent with Section R602.11.1 of the California
Residential Code and Section 2308.3.1 of the
California Building Code. This amendment is a
continuation of amendments adopted during prior
Code adoption cycle.
R606.4.4 Geological Los Angeles County is prone to seismic activity due to the existence of active faults in the Southern
