(b) Breakaway wall or frangible wall means a partition independent of supporting structural members that will withstand design wind forces, but which will fail under hydrodynamic, wave, and runup forces associated with the design storm surge. Under such conditions, the wall Shall fail in a manner such that it breaks up into components which minimize the potential for damage to life or adjacent property. It shall be a character- istic of a breakaway or frangible wall that it shall have a horizontal design loading resistance of no less than 10 nor more than 20 pounds per square foot. (c) Building Support Structure means any structure which supports floor, wall or column loads, and transmits them to the foundation. The term shall include beams, grade beams, or joists, and includes the lowest horizontal structural member exclusive of piles, columns, or footings. (d) Coastal Barrier Islands means geological surface features of islands within the Town of Gulf Stream above mean high water. (e) Coastal Building Zone means the land area between the seasonal high water line of the Atlantic Ocean and the waters of the intercoastal waterway. (f) Coastal Construction Control Line means the land- ward extent of that portion of the beach -dune system which is subject to severe fluctuations based upon a one hundred (100) year storm surge, storm waves, or other predictable weather conditions as established by the Department of Natural Resources in accordance with Section 161.053, Florida Statutes. (g) Construction means the building of or substantial improvement to any structure or the clearing, filling, or excava- tion of any land. It shall also mean any alterations in the size or use of any existing structure or the appearance of any land. When appropriate to the context, "construction" refers to the act of construction or the result of construction. (h) Dune means a mound or ridge of loose sediments, usually sand - sized, deposited by natural or artificial means, which lies landward of the beach. (i) Major Structure includes but is not limited to residential buildings, commercial, institutional, industrial, and other construction having the potential for substantial impact on coastal zones. (j) Mean high -water line means the intersection of the tidal plane of mean high water with the shore. Mean high water is the average height of high waters over.a 19 -year period. (k) Minor Structure includes but is not limited to pile supported, elevated dune and beach walkover structures; beach access ramps and walkways; stairways; pile- supported, elevated viewing platforms, gazebos, and boardwalks; lifeguard support stands; public and private bath houses; sidewalks, driveways, parking areas, shuffleboard courts, tennis courts, handball courts, racquetball courts, and other uncovered paved areas; earth retaining walls; sand fences, privacy fences, ornamental walls, ornamental garden structures, aviaries, and other ornamental construction. It shall be a characteristic of minor structures that they are considered to be'expendable under design wind, wave, and storm forces. (1) Nonhabitable Major Structure includes but is not limited to swimming pools; parking garages; pipelines; piers; canals, lakes, ditches, drainage structures, and other water retention structures; water and sewage treatment plants; electrical power plants, transmission and distribution lines, transformer pads, vaults, and substations; roads, bridges, streets, and highways; and underground storage tanks. (m) NGVD means National Geodetic Vertical Datum - A geodetic datum established by the National Ocean Service and frequently referred to as the 1929 Mean Sea Level Datum. (n) One Hundred (100) Year Storm means a shore incident hurricane or any other storm with accompanying wind, wave, and storm surge intensity having a one percent chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year, during any 100 -year interval. (o) Seasonal high -water line means the line formed by the intersection of the rising shore and the elevation of 150 percent of the local mean tidal range above mean high water. r� (p) State Minimum Building Code means the building code adopted by a municipality or county pursuant to the require- ments of Section 553.73, Florida Statutes. (q) Substantial Improvement means any repair, recon- struction, or improvement of a structure, the cost of which equals or exceeds a cumulative total of fifty percent of the market value of the structure either: (1) Before the repair or improvement is started; or (2) If the structure has been damaged and is being restored, before the damage occurred. For the purposes of this definition, "substantial improvement" is considered to occur when the first alteration of any wall, ceiling, floor, or other structural part of the building commences, whether or not that alteration affects the external dimensions of the structure. The term does not, however, include either any project for improvement of a structure to comply with exist- ing state or local health, sanitary, or safety code specifications which are solely necessary to assure safe living conditions; or any alteration of a structure listed on the National Register of Historic Places or the State Inventory of Historic Places. SECTION V. - COASTAL CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS Construction within the coastal building zone and on coastal barrier islands shall meet the requirements of this chapter. All structures shall be designed so as to minimize damage to life, property, and the natural environment. Assistance in determining the design parameters to minimize such damage may be found in the reference documents listed in Section VII. SECTION VI. - STRUCTURAL REQUIREMENTS FOR MAJOR STRUCTURES Section 6- 10(1). Design and Construction: Major structures shall be designed and constructed in accordance with Section 1205 of the 1986 revisions to the 1985 Standard Building Code As Amended using a fastest -mile wind velocity of one hundred ten (110) miles per hour. Major structures shall also comply with the applicable standards for construction found elsewhere in the 1985 Standard Building Code As Amended and the Palm Beach Countywide Amendments. (2) Elevation, Floodproofing and Siting: All major structures shall be designed, constructed and located in compli- ance with the National Flood Insurance Regulations as found in 44 CFR Parts 59 and 60 or Town Ordinance 83 -1 Flood Hazard Areas, whichever is more restrictive. Section 6 -20 Design Conditions: (1) Velocity Pressure: Major structures shall be designed in accordance with the requirements of Section 1205 of the 1986 revisions to the 1985 Standard Building Code As Amended using a minimum fastest -mile wind velocity of 110. These minimum design pressures are as follows: Table 1205.2A Velocity Pressure (psf) Building Height 60 feet or less Mean Roof Fastest Mile Wind Velocity, V (mph) Height (ft) 110 0 -15 25 20 28 40 34 60 38 Table 1205.3A Gust Velocity Pressure (psf) Building Height Greater Than 60 Feet Fastest Mile Wind Velocity, V (mph) Coastal Exposure Height (ft) 110 0 -30 35 31 -50 40 51 -100 47 100 -200 54 200 -300 61 300 -400 66 400 -500 70 Section 6- 20(2). Foundations: The elevation of the soil surface to be used in the design of foundations, calculation of pile reactions and bearing capacities shall not be greater than that which would result from the erosion reasonably anticipated as a result of design storm conditions. Foundation design and construction of a major structure shall consider all anticipated loads acting simultaneously with live and dead loads. Erosion computations for foundation design shall account for all vertical and lateral erosion and scour producing forces, including localized scour due to the presence of structural components. Foundation design and construction shall provide for adequate bearing capacity taking into consideration the type of soil present and the antici- pated loss of soil above the design grade as a result of localized scour. Erosion computations are not required landward of coastal construction control lines established or updated since June 30, 1980. Upon request, the Department of Natural Resources may provide information as to those areas within coastal building zones where erosion and scour of a one hundred (100) year storm event is applicable. (3) Wave Forces: Calculations for wave forces result- ing from design storm conditions on building foundations and superstructures may be based upon the minimum criteria and methods prescribed in the Naval Facilities Engineering Command Design Manual, NAVFAC DM -26, U. S. Department of Navy; Shore Protection Manual. U.S. Department of the Army Corps of Engineers; U.S. Department of the Army Coastal Engineering Research Center Technical Papers and Reports; and Technical and Design Memoranda of the Division of Beaches and Shores, Florida Department of Natural Resources; or other professionally recognized methodologies which produce equivalent design criteria. Breaking, broken, and nonbreaking waves shall be considered as applicable. Design wave loading analysis shall consider vertical uplift pressures and all lateral pressures to include impact as well as dynamic loading and the harmonic intensification resulting from repetitive waves. (4) Hydrostatic Loads: Calculations for hydrostatic loads shall consider the maximum water pressure resulting from a fully peaked, breaking wave superimposed upon the design storm surge with dynamic wave setup. Both free and hydrostatic loads shall be considered. Hydrostatic loads which are confined shall be determined by using the maximum elevation to which the confined water would freely rise if unconfined. Vertical hydrostatic loads shall be considered both upward and downward on horizontal or inclined surfaces of major structures (i.e. floors, slabs, roofs, walls). Lateral hydrostatic loads shall be considered as forces acting horizontally above and below grade on vertical or inclined surfaces. Hydrostatic loads on irregular or curved geometric surfaces shall be determined by considering the separate vertical and horizontal components acting simultaneously under the distribution of the hydrostatic pressures. (5) Hydrodynamic Loads: Hydrodynamic loads shall consider the maximum water pressures resulting from the motion of the water mass associated with the design storm. Full intensity loading shall be applied on all structural surfaces above the design grade which would affect the flow velocities. Section 6 -30 Structural Requirements for Nonhabitable Major Structures. Nonhabitable major structures need not meet the specific structural requirements of Section 6 -10, except that they shall be designed to produce the minimum adverse impact on the beach and dune system and shall comply with the applicable standards on construc- tion.found in the 1985 Standard Building Code As Amended and the Palm Beach Countywide Amendments. All sewage treatment and public water supply systems shall be flood - proofed to prevent infiltration of surface water anticipated under design storm conditions. Underground utilities, excluding pad transformers and vaults, shall be flood - proofed to prevent infiltration of surface water expected under design storm conditions or shall otherwise be designed to function when submerged under such storm conditions. Section 6 -40. Structural Reouirements for Minor Structures Minor structures need not meet the specific structural requirements of Section 6 -10, except that they shall be designed to produce the minimum adverse impact on the beach and dune system and shall comply with the applicable standards of construction found in the 1985 Standard Building Code As Amended and the Palm Beach Countywide Amendments. Section 6 -50. Location of Construction Construction, except for elevated walkways, lifeguard support stands, piers, beach access ramps, gazebos, and coastal or shore protection structures, shall be located a sufficient distance landward of the beach to permit natural shoreline fluctuations, and to preserve dune stability. Construction, including excavation, may occur to the extent that the natural storm buffering and protection capability of the dune is not diminished. Section 6 -60. Public Access Where the public has established an accessway through private lands to lands seaward of mean high tide or water line by prescription, prescriptive easement, or other legal means, development or construction shall not interfere with such right of access unless a comparable alternative accessway is provided. The developer shall have the right to improve, consolidate, or relocate such public accessways so long as they are: (a) Of substantially similar quality and convenience to the public; (b) Approved by the local government and approved by the Department of Natural Resources whenever improvements are involved seaward of the coastal construction line; and (c) Consistent with the coastal management element of the local comprehensive plan adopted pursuant to Section 163.3178, Florida Statutes.
