sf. >> good evening, everybody tutor coming i'm patrick the chief director of earthquake for the city of san francisco this is an information been the private school ownerships we'll be talking about what is required and walk you through some of the steps we'll have time to do q and a there's a microphone we'll be happy to talk about any issuance restrooms with right around the corner we have coffee and cookies not back feel free to

help yours which of you sought report that was the product of almost 3 years of work that was put into looking at our cities private schools we've known nor a long-term the state has treated public and private schools different this is a no one at acquisition they've been regulated differently in the past private schools are essential inform san francisco one in 3 or 24 thousand kids are educated in san francisco's private schools we know that not only is this an important part of the children's safety but we know that after a major disaster getting the school up and running it essential with you can't have education without engaging the private schools when he think will be able to get back to work to put our kids

in school and get back to normal like a cat tropic health starting in the 30s we starting thinking about the public school this is the distantly from 133 earthquake we took steps to make sure that you are picking up public schools were symmetrical ready for earthquake we started talking about this what do we do we look at the policy interventions was was mcall schools retrieved we know that information programs are great but not effective in causing change the way we change behavior we know that schools yes, ma'am the private schools

have all different kinds of revenue and if we treat them the same we'll see schools close so eventually ample a long discussion we met mount middle to do american people evaluation so as the all that's required in the evaluation the schools do a seismic evaluation to make decisions the charlotte is an explanation of that not actually looking at specific schools but schools in general and looking at 9 types of schools that were under whether concrete and wood frame and the approximate year that's how we're performing in an earthquake the pie chart on the right there was a huge part we didn't understand again quite a few reinforcing the idea of an evaluation those i realize we

have a mix of engineers and contractor and school administrators so i'm going to talk at a level that hopefully everyone can follow me we're happy to explain that but essentially schools under the building code ann are an e occupancy they have their use and jobs because of that we want to make sure that is an easier place to start by evaluating outlets occupancy schools are complex sometimes audios church associated or a a residentialcy those buildings have not tied up to be elevated so after a lot of months working with the stlrld is stakeholder a group of over 4 hundred and having of you create trademark from so people are comfortable moving forward

people are asking me is there other things all this information also available open our wednesday night but 3 exemptions for the evaluation not required for buildings occupied by 24 private or more persons for less than 12 per yearbook or any given day this draws on a previous building code but we're working with the stakeholder this is expressed as a great way to give definite fraction on the hours and whether or not it should be evaluated and second exemption 25 or fewer students not to say we're not concerned of the students survivalists but the overall risk is so with the universal agreement 25 or fewer students should not be required to evaluate speaker the evaluation is not required for

buildings not classified and a group occupancy we mentioned churches and other buildings that are exempt from the evaluation process so two things that are required law went into effect of november 2013 in the next few months a scope report that is required to be submitted that could be completed by a school administrator if you work with a design professional work with in the relation but it is not intended to be a technical document this gives us a chance to look at the building open campus and based on the requirement of the ordinance meets this requirements to be evaluated we know clearly from the be perimeters that are buildings not evaluates that our chance to have that conversation if there's curiosities it as to who is sub or not we're happy to help we have a difference team

policy experts and others while we'll not do the evaluations we'll set i up for success as i mentioned the two evaluations i'm going to walk you through the scope documents who what is required at the top part basically, the building code section truly about the restrictions and what you do this is a free document to submittal no cost from the city as we go through that you'll see other things the deadline for the scope is 2015 for some reason the document is not 134i78d please let us you know in theory if you don't submittal that the department of building inspection will give a notice of

violations and or sftv.org you, you want us to do a site inspection you can send a dvd again do worry about the address and things like that it will be available it on the website two location sftv.org back slash e extensive is part of the administration bulletin for the private schools again on the website we'll you work u walk you through the process we know that most engineers when it comes the evaluation use the template it is user friendly we don'ts o see those as harp the first section does this replace another report yes or no the

scope document maybe filled out incorrectly we'll work you you about it you send it in a second time we'll document that we want the school name and address and the block and lock number addresses are complicated in san francisco we rely on a block and lock map some of the schools maybe on multiple lots please give us the lot number to see the size and scope the contact information who've you want to appoint this would be the person ahead of the schools the principle it doesn't matter on if it's the identified person for the project section 3 repeating the school name on top sometimes papers get separated and one of the thing is resources how are we going to find this as i mentioned some

engineers or arithmetic wisconsin you can use maintain licensed in california we have a comprehensive resource lift we work with the association of northern california they've surveyed their plea bargains 23s it is a nonprofit structural engineers and they provided a resource list we've put together a resource list of the engineers of san francisco unified school district they've used for the retroactive and evaluation between those sources there are several names that guess posted on the website other wwwsftv.org back slash e s i p stand for earth quaked just to make sure we get the audio please come up to the microphone.

>> good afternoon paul with san francisco will the scope part be determined to decide whether or not we need the evaluation or are we to have the evaluation done that's one question and schools that have been had major seismic roller coasters will they can didn't want or have the evaluation done. >> that's an excellent question at a point of contact i've been working with the city for almost 3 years prior to that i was the building code consultant so i've had the privilege of working with the schools and many as they went through the renovation process there was a huge retrofit the work was done you have a safe this and i've seen

the entryway so 0 doing the engineering evaluation is a simple you have access to the existing plans and calculations so the engineer should be able to do that quickly that's an important point if you're schools have done revving use the engineer feel free to use whoever you want if you have plans and information that's going to make their job easier. >> thank you i'm with the stern's school our hyphen highly is in a church we've got more than that 25 ask the full-time do we need to evaluate. >> without seeing the document i'm assume there was a permanent building permit to change the

school in addition to the in such u church so if you said you didn't want to evaluate it church you'll have to move that school as long as the kids are there it's evaluated and so a single building yeah. the whole building. >> not part of the evaluation so for those of who you who didn't hear the question is ada triggered as part of the evaluation with that said, if you choose to do a retrofit there's a remit in chapter 11 this have to be complied with and sorry to keep come back to this so our school is in a church we don't own the church we're that renting the spaces who guess responsible for the

program. >> that's an excellent question we have self schools in san francisco that are owned by others and rent this assumes the owner is the responsible part with that said it is complicated open who is responsible when you talk about the lease terms the owner is responsible but they obviously need to work in conjunction with the school i should have pointed that out but it gives spaces and option to identify that to say the school is owned by the person we're the tenant and between the parties decide who the contract is and we'll decide who the law son is. >> how soon is the relieving contractors come up in the summer this is 2, 3, 4 two months for summer school so

during two months are you supposed to finish the retrofitting and again it good afternoon, supervisors actually it's done how it is proposed and i think that is important leaving relieving is volunteer if the school choose to there's no deadline or requirement if they want to do it in phases their more than welcome two too. >> if san francisco unified school district owns the property and lease the building to a private school since it's not in your is it in our jurisdiction. >> the siren way to talk about there's a couple of works the charter schools sometime they're related to in san francisco unified school district owned buildings in d s a is the authority having the jury instruction they're not required to follow the san francisco

building code if it is something that the city is - >> is there a way to hide as a charter school because they're on city property and not in d s a. >> i haven't seen a case like that. >> it property comes up where they skis through the krangdz. >> anecdotal it is profoundly d s a. >> the second question i have you mentioned when we're going through the revving there are a lot of private schools that are very old we're going to be going through preservation alsz lights; right? and correct. >> we did a s i there was a

trial i want to let people know that is a full review by the building inspection and all the parts of building inspection. >> yeah. i think that is a previous thing to talk about for case management what we want to do is set i up for success if you're planning on doing a construction project let's have that conversation we worked with others thirg things did you think about accessibility if you do this it will trigger xyz that's what we want to do walk you through it and give you an idea construction k is expensive and downtime for school is hard to keep with we're going to minimize the downtime and maximum the time for a building

permit historical review if you're doing exterior work think about having a conversation with the denial having we have a interagency working group we've identified one key person in every city department with the plan process department of building inspection, san francisco fire department work sf puc and everybody else that touches is dph we have point people in the departments it's on our website those are the right people to talk to we recommend if you have general questions start with us we're happy to make the connections the late thing call a number and get passed around we want to give you a superior service to get you set up.

>> one quick question i apologize to the audience more of a question to you david i was curious about the evaluation form whether or not it recognizes the benchmark from the a s 41 are we still required to fill out the form if it's a benchmark building. >> i'm david i was the structural engineer answer is yes, the engineering criteria tore this evaluation tlaits there's a national standard i get the advantages for s c 41 one it the relatively new buildings are benchmarked structural non-structural so that goes to the question of those who had a retrofit that meets the safety standard i can use that to benchmark and be

done. >> we talked about the possibility of fingering ada issues b what about california energy. >> it is triggered on a couple of things you'll trigonometry envelope the way your building reattains energies so if you're basically changing opposing that's something you want to consider basically, the only time for example you touch the lighting this transitions the lighting system it is localize so it will work with the right consultant and same thing for your mechanical. >> do daefrz come under this or two or 4 unit buildings or large. >> so it is about single-family daefrz not intended to be under the ordinances there's a couple

of examples first of all say the kind of at home a single-family home and someone b is watching several children it is not e occupancy no, not required a subsequent requirement less than 25 children no requirement to evaluate so seems like the situation is not required unless a larger daycare well, if i don't see anyone else we'll conclude we have a list of engineers just a prompt if you want to look at it is we're going to take the recording it will building available twenty-four hour a day we've hosting this on a friday night 6 is 3 day weekend we're here to help with questions or services you myers guides might need so
