Flood Building Codes
Todays conversation will provide information concerning the flood resistant provisions of:
• International Codes® (I-Codes) 2018, 2015, 2012, & 2009,
• Referenced standards in American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) 24,
• Flood Resistant Design and Construction, &
• National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) requirements.
NFIP Goals
• Reduce loss of life & loss of property•Use flood resistant construction, guide future
development, & prohibit development in floodplains that would increase flood levels•Make Federally backed insurance coverage
available to property owners• Restore & protect natural resources & functions
of floodplains• Reduce disaster relief costs/taxpayer-funded
disaster costs

NFIP Regulations
NFIP Regulations
Communities must adopt & enforce ordinances that meet or exceed NFIP criteria 44 CFR §60.2(e) & (h)
NFIP criteria ensures that new buildings will be protected from flood levels shown
on FIRM &/or digital FIRM
Role of NFIP Participating Community
• Issue or deny floodplain development permits
• Inspect all development to ensure compliance with local ordinances
•Maintaining records of floodplain development
•Assist residents with info on flood hazards, floodplain map data, flood insurance, & proper construction measures, etc.

6 major flood disasters before the NFIP
• The City/County is enforcing their jurisdiction’s regulations not FEMA’s regulations
• Local regulations for reducing flood loss receive authority granted to municipalities by the States.
• Inherent in the right to enact regulations is the duty & authority to administer & enforce them
Regulating floodplains is a local responsibility!
NFIP Development Definition
Development means any man-made changeto improved or unimproved real estate, including, but not limited to, buildings or other structures, mining, dredging, filling, grading, paving, excavation or drilling operations, or storage of equipment or materials.
Duties & Responsibilities of the FPA
44CFR §59.22(b) An applicant shall legislatively:(1) Appoint or designate the agency or official with the responsibility, authority, and means to implement the commitments made in paragraph (a) of this section,

Duties & Responsibilities of the FPA
44CFR §60.3(a)(1) Require permits for all proposed construction or other development in the community, including the placement of manufactured homes, so that it may determine whether such construction or other development is proposed within flood-prone areas;44CFR §60.3(b)(1) Require permits for all proposed construction & other developments including the placement of manufactured homes, within Zone A on the community's FHBM or FIRM;2015 I-Codes (IBC & Appendix G, IRC, & IEBC)Buildings only; 101.2; 105.1, 1612.1Other development: G 101.3; G104.11- & 2- family homes & townhouses only: R101.2; R322.1EB101.2
Duties & Responsibilities of the FPA
IRC R104.1 General. The building official is hereby authorized & directed to enforce the provisions of this code. The building official shall have the authority to render interpretations of this code & to adopt policies & procedures in order to clarify the application of its provisions. Such interpretations, policies & procedures shall be in compliance with the intent & purpose of this code. Such policies & procedures shall not have the effect of waiving requirementsspecifically provided for in this code.
Duties & Responsibilities of the FPA
IBC G103.1 Permit applications. All applications for permits must comply with the following: 1. The building official shall review all permit applications
to determine whether proposed development is located in flood hazard areas established in §G102.2.
2. Where a proposed development site is in a flood hazard area, all development to which this appendix is applicable as specified in §G102.1 shall be designed & constructed with methods, practices & materials that minimize flood damage & that are in accordance with this code & ASCE 24.
Duties & Responsibilities of the FPA
44 CFR60.3(a)(2) Review proposed development to assure that all necessary permits have been received from those governmental agencies from which approval is required by Federal or State law, including section 404 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972, 33 U.S.C. 1334;
Administrative Provisions
44 CFR §59-65; IRC Chapter 1; & IBC Chapter 1 (& IBC Appendix G, if adopted) Administrative provisions include such matters as duties & powers of the FPA/code official, determination of substantial improvement/substantial damage, adoption of maps & studies, variances, contents of site plans & constructions documents, inspections, identification of flood hazard areas & design flood elevations, & evaluations related to encroachment in floodways & flood hazard areas with BFEs but without floodways.
Administrative Provisions
IBC Appendix G (if adopted) &/or the local floodplain management regulations will specify requirements for development that is not within the scope of the codes, such as subdivisions, site improvements, manufactured homes, recreational vehicles, tanks, & other building work, temporary structures & storage, & utility & miscellaneous structures.
NFIP Abrogation & Greater Restrictions
44CFR60.1 …These regulations must be legally-enforceable, applied uniformly throughout the community to all privately and publicly owned land within flood-prone, mudslide or flood-related erosion areas, and the community must provide that the regulations take precedence over any less restrictive conflicting local laws, ordinances or codes. …
Floodplain Development Permits
Floodplain Development Permits must be issued prior to any development within a designated SFHA - regardless of the site elevation.
This includes any man-made alteration to a site -not just a building, i.e. fill, grading, excavation, accessory structures, utility & road construction, etc.
Even if the site elevation is above BFE, only FEMA can remove it from a SFHA & the
regulations thereof.

ASCE 24
ASCE 24
• FEMA deems ASCE 24 to meet or exceed the minimum NFIP requirements for building & structures.
• Buildings & structures designed according to ASCE 24 are better able to resist flood loads & flood damage.
•ASCE 24 is a consensus standard that has been referenced by the I-Codes since 2000.
•ASCE 24 does not contain administrative provisions.
Floodplain Reasonably Safe from Flooding
44CFR60.3(a)(3) Review all permit applications to determine whether proposed building sites will be reasonably safe from flooding.

Floodplain Foundation Anchoring
Stemwall foundations are similar to crawlspace foundations in construction, but the interior space that would otherwise form the crawlspace is often backfilled with gravel that supports a floor slab. Stemwall foundations have been observed to perform better during storms than many crawlspace & pier foundations. Flood openings are not required in a backfilled stemwall foundation. Stemwall foundations are recommended in both A & AE Zones as long as embedment of the wall is sufficient to resist erosion & scour.

Floodplain Manufactured Homes
Manufactured homes must meet the same flood protection requirements as a “stick built” or typical housing. The general requirement for manufactured homes like typically built residential structures is that they must be elevated so that the lowest floor is above BFE.FEMA recommends the best practice of placing the bottom of the manufactured home’s steel frame at the BFE & not the lowest floor of the manufactured home in order to prevent flood damage to the floor & other interior finishes & contents.

Floodplain Basements
Basements
The basement definition per the 44 CFR §59.1
Basement means any area of the building having its floor subgrade (below ground level) on all sides.
Additionally the Elevation Certificate further defines a basement as:
Diagram 2A: BasementDistinguishing Feature
The bottom floor (basement or underground garage) is below ground level (grade) on all sides.*
Diagram 2B: BasementDistinguishing Feature
The bottom floor (basement or underground garage) is below ground level (grade) on all sides; most of the height of the walls is below ground level on all sides; and the door and area of egress are also below ground level on all sides.*
Diagram 9: Sub-grade Crawlspace(a.k.a. Below-Grade-Crawlspace)Distinguishing Feature
The bottom (crawlspace) floor is below ground level (grade) on all sides.* (If the distance from the crawlspace floor to the top of the next higher floor is more than 5 feet, or the crawlspace floor is more than 2 feet below the grade [LAG] on all sides, use Diagram 2A or 2B.)
* A floor that is below ground level (grade) on all sides is considered a basement even if the floor is used for living purposes, or as an office, garage, workshop, etc.

Floodplain Critical Facilities
Facilities that are vital to flood response activities or critical to the health and safety of the public before, during, & after a flood, such as a hospital, emergency operations center, electric substation, police station, fire station, nursing home, school, vehicle & equipment storage facility, or shelter; & facilities that, if flooded, would make the flood problem & its impacts much worse, such as a hazardous materials facility, power generation facility, water utility, or wastewater treatment plant.
Floodplain Critical Facilities
Construction of new critical facilities shall be, to the extent possible, located outside the limits of the SFHA (100-year floodplain). Construction of new critical facilities shall be permissible within the SFHA if no feasible alternative site is available. Critical facilities constructed within the SFHA shall have the lowest floor elevated two feet (2.0 ft.) above BFE or to the height of the 500-year flood, whichever is higher. Access to & from the critical facility should also be protected to the height utilized above. Floodproofing & sealing measures must be taken to ensure that toxic substances will not be displaced by or released into floodwaters. Access routes elevated to or above the level of the base flood elevation shall be provided to all critical facilities to the extent possible.

44CFR60.3(b)(5) Where base flood elevation data are utilized, within Zone A on the community's FHBM or FIRM: (i) Obtain the elevation (in relation to mean sea level) of the lowest floor (including basement) of all new and substantially improved structures, and … (iii) Maintain a record of all such information with the official designated by the community under §59.22 (a)(9)(iii);2018 I-Codes (IBC & Appendix G, IMC, IPC, IFGC, IRC, & IEBC)104.7; 110.3.3; 110.3.10;1612.5(1.1), (1.3) & (2.1)G103.3; G103.8R104.7; R106.1.3(4); R109.1.3; R109.1.6.1; R322.1.10EB104.7; EB109.3.3
Elevation Certificate (EC)
•Required to rate insurance for structures
•Determines compliance with building codes/local ordinance
•Supports LOMA/LOMR-F
•Prerequisite for CRS
Must the community require an EC?
NFIP Community Officials are required to obtain certified elevations of floodplain development per 44CFR60.3(b)(5)
The EC is the logical method
The property owner will need the EC for their insurance agent.
Does the EC certify a building is compliant?
The Elevation Certificate is a report of existing conditions. The surveyor/engineer’s stamp does not certify that the structure complies with federal, state, or local regulations; it only certifies the elevations in Section C.
The FPA MUST REVIEW the EC for completeness & accuracy, &
to determine if the structure is compliant!
EC - Section G - Community Info
Optional, but…Describe the projectProvide date built Indicate: Substantial DamageSubstantial ImprovementProvide LOMA/LOMR-F case #
EC - Building photographs
EC Compliance
The local Floodplain Administrator must proof read the EC & verify compliance prior to issuing the
Certificate of Occupancy or Certificate of Compliance.
Elevation Certificate Compliance
44CFR§59.22(a)(9)(iii)The NFIP requires that compliance records be maintained (available upon request) on all development in the SFHA in perpetuity in order to ascertain whether or not the development complies with applicable floodplain management regulations. A structure or other development without the proper flood records such as permits, certified elevation data, or other certifications, as required in 44CFR§60.3 is presumed to be in violation until such documentation is provided.
EC Compliance
You may scan & email your ECs to me for review to ensure accuracy & completeness.
Many surveyors & engineers email their draft ECs to me for review prior to submitting them to the NFIP community.
Review turn around is usually less than 48 hours.

LOMR
LOMRs are based on the implementation of physical measures that affect the hydrologic or hydraulic characteristics of a flooding source & thus result in the modification of the existing regulatory floodway, the effective BFE, or the SFHA. The LOMR officially revises the FIRM, & sometimes the FIS report.
i.e. a new larger culvert, a new bridge, or better available data provided to FEMA.
Maintain Permit Documents in Perpetuity
Permanently maintain all records that pertain to the administration of this ordinance & make these records available for public inspection.
