MEMORANDUM
SCANNED
From: Robert Lorenzo, Manufactured (Modular) Buildings Program BY
St. Lucie County
To: Building Officials, Manufacturers & Third Party Agencies
Subject: Raised Seals on Plans for Manufactured (Modular) Buildings
Date: September 15, 2008
Section 553.80(1),(d) F.S., (also chapter 106.3, Exemption 91, FBC) specifically exempts state
approved manufactured (modular) buildings bearing the DCA insignia, from further plan review by
local code enforcing agencies. Rule 9B-1, FAC and the Florida Building Code (FBC) do not require
original signed and sealed plans for manufactured (modular) buildings to be submitted to local
jurisdictions to obtain a building permit. The state (DCA) insignia issued by this Department attests
that the plans have been reviewed and the buildings inspected by a state approved Third Party
Agency and found to be compliant with the FBC.
However, any code requirements not completed at the factory are considered site related and are
subject to local plan review and inspection in accordance with the FBC and local requirements.
Signing and sealing of these plans should follow local procedures. All site -related installation
requirements (e.g. marriage walls, hinged roofs, foundation, electrical hook-up, plumbing, etc.) are
specifically and entirely reserved to the local authority having jurisdiction (local building
department).
The State of Florida Manufactured (Modular) Buildings Program requires its approved Third Party
Agencies to maintain a hardcopy set of signed and sealed plans that have been reviewed and
approved by a Florida licensed Modular Plans Reviewer. Inspection reports conducted at the
manufacturing facility by Florida licensed design professional or Modular Inspectors are also
required to be on file. Local jurisdictions may require copies of the approved plans with the permit
application or may rely on the plans on file at www.floridabuilding.org.
