Deck

Deck floor plan template, 12'-0" x 16'-0", 192 sf
Deck - plan view, 12'-0" x 16'-0"

A framed platform off the back of the house, usually raised. Above 30 in from grade it needs a guard, and being attached to the house is what makes the ledger connection the thing that matters most about it. Typically 12 by 16 ft.

The sheet carries the fixture clearances as drawn geometry on their own layer, with the dimension strings and room notes outside the walls.

  • unverified IRC 2021 R311.7.8 handrails and R311.7.5 riser and tread (unverified) — Handrails are required on stairs with four or more risers, at 34 to 38 in above the tread nosings. Stair geometry on a deck follows the same riser and tread limits as an interior stair.
  • unverified IRC 2021 R312.1 guards (unverified) — Guards are required at open-sided walking surfaces located more than 30 in measured vertically to the floor or grade below, including decks and the stairs serving them.
  • unverified IRC 2021 R507 exterior decks (unverified) — Decks shall be designed and constructed in accordance with the deck construction provisions -- ledger attachment, joist and beam spans, post and footing sizing, and lateral load connection to the dwelling.
  • unverified NEC (NFPA 70) outdoor receptacle and luminaire requirements (article and section unverified) — Outdoor receptacles shall be weather-resistant and GFCI-protected, and luminaires shall be listed for wet locations.
  • unverified typical practice — 36 in of chair pull-out on every seated side of the table, measured to the guard rather than to a wall.

"Verified" means the citation was checked against the source text we hold. "Unverified" means it has not been, and should be read as a pointer to look the section up rather than as a quotation of it.

A single room on its own sheet is not a whole building, so the checks that grade a floor plate — exit counts, circulation share, fixture counts against an occupant load — have no subject here. They are listed rather than counted as passes.

Patio

Outdoor - 16'-0" x 20'-0" interior, 320 sf - typical for this room type: 192 sf

Patio floor plan template, 16'-0" x 20'-0", 320 sf
Patio - plan view, 16'-0" x 20'-0"

A paved surface at grade, off the back of the house. No guard, no framing and no footing schedule -- which is what separates it from a deck. Usually about 12 by 16 ft.

The sheet carries the fixture clearances as drawn geometry on their own layer, with the dimension strings and room notes outside the walls.

Codes cited on the sheet

  • unverified IRC 2021 R311.3 floors and landings at exterior doors (unverified) — A floor or landing on each side of an exterior door, not less than the width of the door and not less than 36 in in the direction of travel. Where the patio is at grade it satisfies this directly.
  • unverified IRC 2021 R312.1 guards (unverified) — Guards are required at walking surfaces more than 30 in above the grade below. A patio at grade is the definition of the case where no guard is needed, which is the structural difference between a patio and a deck.
  • unverified NEC (NFPA 70) outdoor receptacle requirements (article and section unverified) — Outdoor receptacles shall be weather-resistant and GFCI-protected.
  • unverified typical practice — 36 in of chair pull-out on every seated side of the table, the same number as indoors.
  • unverified typical practice — Surface slope away from the building of about 1/4 in per foot, with the finished surface held below the door threshold and the siding line. This is drainage practice rather than a cited section.

"Verified" means the citation was checked against the source text we hold. "Unverified" means it has not been, and should be read as a pointer to look the section up rather than as a quotation of it.

Porch

Outdoor - 9'-0" x 24'-0" interior, 216 sf - typical for this room type: 160 sf

Porch floor plan template, 9'-0" x 24'-0", 216 sf
Porch - plan view, 9'-0" x 24'-0"

A roofed or open platform at an entry, at least 6 ft deep so two chairs and a person walking past can share it. Shallower than that and it is a stoop.

The sheet carries the fixture clearances as drawn geometry on their own layer, with the dimension strings and room notes outside the walls.

Codes cited on the sheet

  • unverified IRC 2021 R311.3 floors and landings at exterior doors (unverified) — A floor or landing shall be provided on each side of an exterior door, not less than the width of the door and not less than 36 in in the direction of travel. A porch satisfies this on the outside.
  • unverified IRC 2021 R311.7.8 handrails (unverified) — Handrails are required on stairs with four or more risers, at 34 to 38 in above the tread nosings.
  • unverified IRC 2021 R312.1 guards (unverified) — Guards are required at open-sided walking surfaces located more than 30 in measured vertically to the floor or grade below.
  • unverified NEC (NFPA 70) outdoor receptacle and luminaire location requirements (article and section unverified) — Outdoor receptacles shall be weather-resistant and GFCI-protected, and a covered porch fixture shall be listed for damp or wet locations as applicable.
  • unverified typical practice — About 30 in in front of a chair to sit down and stand up, and a 36 in path past the seating to the door. Neither is code.

"Verified" means the citation was checked against the source text we hold. "Unverified" means it has not been, and should be read as a pointer to look the section up rather than as a quotation of it.

Code sections are cited for drafting context only. A room drawn to a dimension in a model code is not a compliance determination: adoption, amendment and interpretation are local, and the governing edition in your jurisdiction may differ from the one cited. Nothing here is stamped or sealed. Verify against the code your project is permitted under and the actual specified products. See the license and terms.
