ASTM C 1063 requires 2 inches below the sill plate.

I agree you are correct. If they adhere the access shut they are no longer complying with: R807.1 Attic access. In buildings with combustible ceiling or roof construction, and attic access opening shall be provided to attic areas that exceed 30 square feet and have a vertical height of 30 inches. They just don’t want to pay for something like this: http://www.contractorstoolsupply.com/fi ... -3044.html when they can spend $10 on sticky gasket.

It should sound sensual, I wasn't wearing anything but vaseline and a beret when I wrote it. Friggin beautiful! This guy was one of my instructors. Shit! It all makes sense now. The sheep, the Blueberries,... Ah, yes. Ben Wa blueberries. Not for the timid. That did it. I just gave the last two Blueberry Poptarts to the dog. That just sounds like I sould check urban dictionary for a definition.

It is used on roofs all the time. Of course there are different types which have different flame spread rates. The attic is very simmilar to a mock up I saw at the International builders show last year.

In walls the placement of the Insulated Glass Unit (IGU) needs to be placed correctly in each wall assembly. Many retrofit vinyl windows place the IGU too far outboard in the wall assembly causing cold spots near the frame. This cold spot usually is most prevalent near the frame corners where you will see a boomerang shaped area of condensation. You have two different walls that are performing differently: • The basement probably has less overall insulation which moves the condensation line outward and the windows are typically inset further into the walls. • The upstairs walls are probably more thermally efficient which draws the condensation line at the windows inward. To test my theory raise the interior temperature to 74 degrees F for 24 hours. I am assuming you are not keeping blinds or drapes closed.

Marc, I just opened your website on my smart phone (BB Torch), and it worked fine. Since the Cloud 3 system is a windows OS I doubt it will run on ithings or Blackberrys. It should run on the Hewlett Packard smart phones though. Anyone who has tried opening multi page documents on a smart phone will tell you that they only do it if they have to . To try and read an entire document is tedious and time consuming. Regards Ramon

To answer the question: It was clearly a coordinated pooch screw.

No there is not, however the issue they have is the tabs will not seal together. I have a project in Venice, CA installed in 2000 with no issues at all. Click to Enlarge 56.28 KB

Jim-have you ever heard of a solar chimney? your description sort of sounds like some kind of damper, however if the coating on the glass limits the amount of solar gain it would not make sense. R

In addition we are seeing more hybrid systems like: http://www.icc-es.org/reports/pdf_files ... R-1607.pdf Details here: http://www.westernblended.com/architects_specs.php

No, but the owner got very nervous when she realized we spotted her stash.

Nice catch!

It is a thimble. I have never heard of it refered to differently depending on location, but you know how phrases change around the country. The photo you provided shows the thimble set too far back from the surface of the drywall. The intent of the thimble is to provide the one-inch separation to framing and drywall (an air gap if you will), while still providing a block for flame and smoke spread. Usually there is some tape and mud repair around the thimble to provide a consistent joint around the annulus. Many jurisdictions also require intumescent sealant at the joint between the thimble and drywall. Download Attachment: Simpson Dura Vent 1998.pdf 135.95 KB

ADA non-compliance issue. Thanks for the ammo John. I can't wait to get back there. Marc It also violates Fair Housing.

Looks like a gutter strap to me.

I assure you my intention was only to clarify and learn more about links.

Mike, Forgive me I am unfamiliar with bots. Are you telling me that if words like federal indictment used at the same sentence with www.moldremoval.org the bots will collect and associate the words with www.moldremoval.org? That could be very problematic for someone who owns www.moldremoval.org in as much as someone could be discussing something like wire fraud, theft, or unpaid child support. I think we should all think about thread drift when we respond to comments made by www.moldremoval.org if we use key words like bank fraud, federal prison, inmate, or fat men in high heels, the bots might collect this unintentional information and link it to www.moldremoval.org. My next question is can the links be made from paragraphs (above) or do the comments have to be made in a format more like JK used? IE: www.moldremoval.org linked with human trafficking. My computer has a key logger after visiting the www.moldremoval.org website. www.moldremoval.org virus got past my Norton antivirus and destroyed my hard drive. What happens if a posting of another link is used in the same sentence as the www.moldremoval.org link? Will the bots also collect information from those websites and make the same association? IE: www.moldremoval.org visited the UN in support of http://articles.cnn.com/2010-09-24/poli ... M:POLITICS. www.moldremoval.org Mold remediation company fraud news story http://www.ctpost.com/default/article/M ... 106255.php. Thanks for helping me understand this technology thing. R

Ouch my spleen… I hurt it when I fell out of my chair.
