3307.6.2 Areas to Be Protected

NYC Building Code 2008 > 33 Safeguards During Construction or Demolition > 3307 Protection of Pedestrians > 3307.6 Sidewalk Sheds > 3307.6.2 Areas to Be Protected
JUMP TO FULL CODE CHAPTER
Protection shall be provided for those sidewalks or walkways that are in front of the building to be constructed, altered, or demolished. Sidewalks or walkways in a plaza or other similar space that lead from the street to an entrance or exit into or out of the building that cannot be officially closed shall be similarly protected.
  Where deemed necessary by the commissioner, the deck shall cover the entire width of the sidewalk or walkway in front of the building, except for reasonably small clearances at the building line and the curb. In all other instances, the sidewalk shed shall protect the sidewalk or walkway to a minimum 5 foot (1524 mm) width. Sidewalk sheds may extend beyond the curb to such extent as may be approved by the Department of Transportation pursuant to a permit from such department.
  Unless constructed solely to comply with Section 3307.3.1, item 3, sidewalk sheds shall extend 5 feet (1524 mm) past the building when the building is less than 100 feet (30 480 mm) in height, and 20 feet (6096 mm) past the building when the building is over 100 feet (30 480 mm) in height, regardless of whether such extensions are in front of the property being developed or in front of adjacent property. Extensions of sidewalk sheds complying with the foregoing shall be constructed so as not to unreasonably obstruct, either visually or physically, entrances, egress, driveways, and show windows of adjacent properties.
