Im working on a solar rooftop design for a flat roof in NYC Theres a lot of exhaust fans and vents on the roof. My understanding is that for a building less than 250' in length and width; theres should be an access pathway of 4'. Additionally regardless of building size a setback of 4' from all roof obstructions including HVAC eqpmnt and misc of pathway as well.
With these set backs there isnt much space left for a solar array, before i tell the client about this; has anyone come across a way to make exceptions from these setbacks? See picture attached for reference
Facility is a homeless shelter so can it be considered a residential type R3 group so the setbacks would be less?
Please help.
