DIAGRAM 9
All buildings (other than split-level) elevated on a sub-
grade crawlspace, with or without attached garage.
Distinguishing Feature
– The bottom (crawlspace) floor is below
ground level (grade) on all sides.* (If the distance from the crawlspace
floor to the top of the next higher floor is more than 5 feet, or the
crawlspace floor is more than 2 feet below the grade [LAG] on all
sides, use Diagram 2A or 2B.)
* A floor that is below ground level (grade) on all sides is considered a basement even if the floor is used for living purposes, or as an office,
garage, workshop, etc.
** An "opening" is a permanent opening that allows for the free passage of water automatically in both directions without human intervention.
Under the NFIP, a minimum of 2 openings is required for enclosures or crawlspaces. The openings shall provide a total net area of not less than
1 square inch for every square foot of area enclosed, excluding any bars, louvers, or other covers of the opening. Alternatively, an Individual
Engineered Flood Openings Certification or an Evaluation Report issued by the International Code Council Evaluation Service (ICC ES) must be
submitted to document that the design of the openings will allow for the automatic equalization of hydrostatic flood forces on exterior walls. A
window, a door, or a garage door is not considered an opening; openings may be installed in doors. Openings shall be on at least 2 sides of the
enclosed area. If a building has more than 1 enclosed area, each area must have openings to allow floodwater to directly enter. The bottom of
the openings must be no higher than 1.0 foot above the higher of the exterior or interior grade or floor immediately below the opening. For more
guidance on openings, see NFIP Technical Bulletin 1.
