But if you penetrate the envelope, you become illegal. You'll have to indicate to the inspectors how you intend to avoid that.

Rule# or Q&A please.

The rules could also be interpreted to say that the envelope has 14" radius arcs in the corners, or that you can't extend into corners and that you have to stay within perpendicular boundaries extending from each side.
