Ladders or steps required by this section shall not be required to comply with Sections R311.7 and R311.8. Window wells with a vertical depth greater than 44 inches (1118 mm) shall be equipped with a permanently affixed ladder or steps usable with the window in the fully open position. The area of the window well shall allow the emergency escape and rescue opening to be fully opened.Įxception: The ladder or steps required by Section R310.2.3.1 shall be permitted to encroach not more than 6 inches (152 mm) into the required dimensions of the window well. The horizontal area of the window well shall be not less than 9 square feet (0.9 m 2), with a horizontal projection and width of not less than 36 inches (914 mm). Where a window is provided as the emergency escape and rescue opening, it shall have a sill height of not more than 44 inches (1118 mm) above the floor where the sill height is below grade, it shall be provided with a window well in accordance with Section R310.2.3.
The net clear height opening shall be not less than 24 inches (610 mm) and the net clear width shall be not less than 20 inches (508 mm).Įxception: Grade floor or below grade openings shall have a net clear opening of not less than 5 square feet (0.465 m 2). The net clear opening dimensions required by this section shall be obtained by the normal operation of the emergency escape and rescue opening from the inside. R310.2.1 Minimum opening area.Įmergency and escape rescue openings shall have a net clear opening of not less than 5.7 square feet (0.530 m 2). R310.2 Emergency escape and rescue openings.Įmergency escape and rescue openings shall have minimum dimensions as specified in this section.
#IRC 2015 WINDOWS#
Window opening control devices complying with ASTM F 2090 shall be permitted for use on windows serving as a required emergency escape and rescue opening. R310.1.1 Operational constraints and opening control devices.Įmergency escape and rescue openings shall be operational from the inside of the room without the use of keys, tools or special knowledge. Emergency escape and rescue openings shall open directly into a public way, or to a yard or court that opens to a public way.Įxception: Storm shelters and basements used only to house mechanical equipment not exceeding a total floor area of 200 square feet (18.58 m 2). Where basements contain one or more sleeping rooms, an emergency escape and rescue opening shall be required in each sleeping room.
Discussions with participants and experts in the field helped to identify economic barriers and research gaps that need to be addressed in both the short and long term for the benefit of canola industry.ġ1S protein 2S protein Canola/rapeseed antinutrients commercial meal cruciferin fibre napin phenolics phytates protein.2015 International Residential Codes SECTION R310 – EMERGENCY ESCAPE AND RESCUE OPENINGS R310.1 Emergency escape and rescue opening required.īasements, habitable attics and every sleeping room shall have not less than one operable emergency escape and rescue opening. The workshop entitled "Canola/Rapeseed Protein-Future Opportunities and Directions" that was held on 8 July 2015 during the 14th International Rapeseed Congress (IRC 2015) addressed the current situation and issues surrounding canola meal protein from the technological, nutritional, regulatory and genomics/breeding perspective.
Despite decades of research, several technologies being developed, and products being brought to large scale production, there are still no commercially available canola protein products. Population pressures, ecological considerations, and production efficiency underscore the importance of highly bioavailable plant proteins, both for the developed and developing world. An economic and sustainable source of protein with high bioavailability and digestibility is essential to human health and well-being. Beyond animal feed lies a potential game-changer with regards to the value of canola meal, and its opportunity as a high quality food protein source. At present, canola meal is primarily streamlined into the animal feed market where it is a competitive animal feed source owing to its high protein value.
