Project: Carport Conversion
Project Address: same
During review of the plans for the above noted project, it was found that the following information,
clarifications or changes are needed. Please provide written responses as to where the changes can
be found on the plans, and submit revised plans/documents to a Permit Coordinator.
1.Provide a floor plan drawn to scale. Include openings and dimensions.
2.Provide a foundation plan. The floor plan can be used for this but the foundation information
will need to include continuous footings that extend to 18 below grade, per R404.1.
3.Show how the anchor bolt requirements will be met.
4.Rebar is required in the foundation. One number 4 bar within 12 inches of the top, and one
number for bar 3 to 4 inches from the ground.
5.By infilling the walls, you will substantially increase the wind loading on the building. The wall
which contains the large door does not appear to have enough sidewalls for prescriptive alternate
brace panels. The minimum width is 16 per side. If the minimum width is available you can
use IRC Figure 602.10.6.2 as a detail to build that wall. If you dont have the minimum 16 you
should check with a WA State licensed engineer for other design options.
