<br />xII <br /> <br />\ <br /> <br />Chapter VIII - Closure of Openings: <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />This chapter explains the various types of closure of openings. Illustrations ar shown with <br />installation guidelines for different situations and design requirements. <br /> <br />Chapter IX - Internal Flooding: <br /> <br />This chapter addresses the measure of wet floodproofing or internal floodpro <br /> <br />Chapter X - Building Materials: <br /> <br />. <br /> <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />This chapter gives a classification of various building materials based on their bility to resist <br />damage during flooding, All listed materials are rated to flood damage or loss y high risk, <br />medium risk, and low risk. <br /> <br />Chapter XI - Basement Construction: <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />This chapter is a detailed presentation of structural requirements for basemen walls and <br />floor slabs. Illustrations and charts are shown which assist in computing allowa Ie water <br />depth based on typical wall and slab thicknesses and reinforcing, The intent of this chapter is <br />to show the degree of structure strength needed to withstand the hydrostatic frees involved, <br />Also, in this chapter, is a discussion of buoyancy forces and the major role the have in use <br />of basements. . <br /> <br />Chapter XII - Electrical: <br /> <br />This chapter provides instructions on the location of control panels, fixtures, a <br />apparatuses, <br /> <br />Chapter XIII - Mechanical: <br /> <br />This chapter provides guidelines on the installation of heating, air conditionin <br />and ventilating equipment systems. <br /> <br />Chapter XIV - Mobile Homes and Parks: <br /> <br />. <br /> <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />This chapter provides a detailed evaluation of mobile homes in flood plains. iscussions of <br />various types of anchoring systems are given including helix, cross, and dead m nanchors. A <br />discussion of standarized anchor systems versus conventional cable and chain ipresented. <br />Methodology to estimate the required number of anchors based on mobile ho e size, water <br />velocity, and depth of water above the floor level is given, along with an exam Ie calcula- <br />tion. A major consideration in selection and design of the anchoring system is i meeting the <br />strength requirements of the Federal Emergency Management Agency. This cha ter also dis- <br />cusses layout of mobile homes in relation to the flood plain, <br /> <br />Chapter XV - Economic Feasibility: <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />This chapter presents a procedure for economic evaluation of floodprooflng. E ample <br />problems are provided comparing no floodproofing, flood proofing, and no floo proofing with <br />insurance. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br />
