RE: Plan Check: BLD20100549
Project: Puckett Remodel
Project Address: 844 Daley St.
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 lateral calculations, especially for the east/west wall line, north wall.
2.Justify potential hinge point at the scabbed doubled 2x8 rim beam/header as indicated on the
floor framing plan and section B. Provide connection requirements.
3.The truss spacing at the attic access location exceeds the allowable span for the ½ CDX
sheathing. Ladder block at 24 on center, or somehow shorten the span. The minimum rough
opening for an attic access is 22x30
4.Option III of the energy code summary, as indicated on sheet 1, is limited to hotels and
apartments (R-1 &R-2). The likely path for this project would be option IV, unlimited glazing
with U.35 vertical glazing.
5. The window adjacent to the French doors in bedroom number 4 is required to be safety glazed.
6. Is the existing wall proposed to support the beam carrying the floor, wall, and roof load at the
upstairs tub location, a bearing wall transferring the load to the footings?
