Fixtures & Water Heaters第 63 / 120 题
A framed water closet compartment measures 32 inches wide inside the finished surfaces, and the closet is set exactly on the center of that width. Does the installation satisfy the side clearance requirement?
a.No, the centerline is only 15 inches from each side and 16 inches is required
b.No, a compartment must be at least 36 inches wide in all cases
c.Yes, but only because a compartment is exempt from side clearance rules
d.Yes, the centerline is 16 inches from each side, which exceeds the 15 inch minimum
解析
Half of 32 inches is 16 inches, so each side has 16 inches of clearance from the centerline, one inch more than the 15 inch minimum. The requirement is 15 inches, not 16, so the first choice reverses the numbers. Compartments are not exempt from clearance rules, and 36 inches is an accessible-stall dimension rather than a universal minimum.
