10. Code Requirements 7 ½” 11 ½” My window opens to approximately 22 ½” x 34 ¾” and 9 ½” AFF. The area of opening is almost 5 ½’ , which is well over the required 5’ of opening for bedrooms on the first floor. However, the minimum height opening in 24”, so my window does not meet IRC standards. The sill height is adequate, however, because IRC prescribes a 44” max AFF sill. The IRC regulates that tread depth should be no less that 10”, and risers should be no more than 7 ¾”. The treads shown are 11 ½” and the risers are 7 ½” so they meet the building codes.
11. ConcreteJoints A control joint is an intentional, linear discontinuity in a structure or component, designed to form a plane of weakness where cracking can occur in response to various forces so as to minimize or eliminate cracking elsewhere in the structure. Crack Control Joint An isolation joint is an intentional discontinuity in a concrete component which separates it from another building component to prevent cracking around the component. Here the control joint is separating a concrete slab from a brick column.

Manufacturing Process: The layers of OSB are laid so that the two outer layers have grains running in the same direction, and the inner layers run perpendicular. These layers are then dried, glued, and pressed together.
