Hello All,
I have created a calculator that checks Building Height and Area in
compliance with the Building Codes for buildings up to 6 stories, with
up to 4 occupancy groups at each level. It also calculates the
Frontage increase factor. There are two versions of the calculator:
for 2007 CBC and for 2006 IBC. These applications are available for
free, by request at: http://www.ara4help.com

Seems like it could be an interesting application. however, why not
make calculations for Basements (especially if walk out or finished) an
optional part of the calculation. Ditto mezzanines.
You have no name and no suggestion of privacy on your request page, so
it is unlikely that I will provide you with info to harvest, thus will
have to forgo your calculator.

One level of basement need not be included in calculations as long as
it complies with sec. 506.1.1.
Sec. 506.4 (Area Determination) deals with number of stories ABOVE THE
GRADE, therefore it is not recommended to use this calculator for
analyzing multiple levels of basements.
Per Sec. 505.1 the mezzanines are considered portion (and the area of
the mezzanine should be added to the area) of the story below.
This application is created by a professional to help professionals,
not to =93harvest=94 info.
Furthermore, I recommend you look more closely, my name and all
necessary information is provided on the website:

Good luck!
