RE: Plan Check: BLD20110156
Project: Wright foundation repair
Project Address: 515 Olympic Ave
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.Engineer of Record:
a.Provide construction requirements for floor leveling within the exterior foundation.
b.Provide connection requirements for pin piles to L3x6x3/8x16 angle iron. If field
welded, special inspection will be required.
c.Undoubtedly the surface of the bottom and sides of the footing will be rougher than
detail 1/S2.1 indicates. Is epoxy grout or another method required to smooth the
concrete surface? If so, provide minimum requirements.
d.The calculation package, under use, indicates an Fb of 1155psi for HF#2. According
to the NDS Table4A, the Fb is 850psi. Justify if this is not a typo.
2.The geotechnical Engineer of Record is required to review the final engineering plans prior to
City of Edmonds plan review.
3.The valuation of the project is placed considerably less than similar projects within the city.
Provide an itemized contract, with both the contractor and the homeowners signatures. For
projects like this, the permit costs are based on fair market valuation of the proposed work.
