Virtual Russian posted:I'm an artist, so I encounter a ton of tiny home enthusiasts, the art scene is lousy with those people. I will never understand the appeal. It is just an objectively worse trailer home. They cost almost as much (I know it is cheaper, but if you can't afford a trailer home you aren't affording a tiny house), and you still have to plunk it down on existing land. The result is just even less dense housing. They exist purely on vibes, I've never ever heard from someone that actually lives in one, because I assume almost no one does. I highly doubt anyone that lives in one on Instagram really just uses it for anything more than a cottage. Likely just renting it or something for their insta. tiny homes are often used to dodge property taxes (see also: full time rv living and vanlife). cant do that with a trailer home. also theres a classist element to it too for artists specifically the more serious ones may also appreciate the diy parts or be employed by others to help with customization and aesthetics

Surely height isn't the only consideration in the code for how many stairwells you need? If you make a building 4 stories high but a mile long you don't get to have only one or two stairwells. I lived in an 4 story building in BC with 16 units per floor that had 3 stairwells, an elevator, and a firewall. Surely that third stairwell wasn't there just out of kindness, it was required to be there due to the length of the building?

RBC posted:we need to cut red tape and allow more people to choose to pay less rent in exchange for the odd chance they might die in a fire The thing is, we know this part won't actually happen. The developers will pocket the difference, and then profit by building units in the space that would otherwise be taken up by a stairwell, and that's why this whole charade is so tiring.

Facebook Aunt posted:Surely height isn't the only consideration in the code for how many stairwells you need? If you make a building 4 stories high but a mile long you don't get to have only one or two stairwells. This is mostly in part three of the building code with some stuff in the fire code. There's a bunch of overlapping requirements, so yes. Travel distance is one of them which was likely your thing. Even with this requirement they're talking about, it wouldn't likely be a deletion of the requirement (although it could be). It would likely be the creation of two options in one of the allowable systems tables. One would have a single set of exit stairs with some additional requirements (likely sprinkler and fire seperation rating related and maybe firefighting access related) and another option that's similar to the current status quo. I haven't read the actual proposal though. Presumably it's just directing the code guys to implement some general thing.

If the floorplate gets to a certain size beyond permissible travel distance (such as a unit's front door to the closest existing exit), then you gotta slam in another staircase.
