STRUCTURAL COMMENTS
Sheet I MAIN FLOOR PLAN:
1. Please specify the required column to support the glu-lam beam, including the
required connections. IBC 2304-9.7
2. The code requires a single 3X member for SW-3. Please modify accordingly. 113C
2305.3. 10 and IBC table 23 06.4.1 footnote i.
3. Engineer of Record (EOR), please specify the required connection of the 6X8
beam at the comer of the porch.
4. Please clarify section A/2. There is not a section cut A on this sheet. Please modify
accordingly.
4. Provide calculations to justify the 3-1/2X 11-7/8 Parallarn will support the loads.
This beam is supporting the shear wall above and with very little dead load from
the roof and floor and uplift forces will be applied on this member. The
compression flange of the beam is not supported so the un-braced length shall not
be continuously supported. Provide an analysis for this beam to justify it will
support the design loads. NDS 5.3.5 and ESR 4.3
Sheet 2 UPPER FLOOR PLAN:
6. Detail 1: Please specify the required boundary nailing on the drawings. I was
.unable to find where this was specified on the drawing
.,s. Please either point out
location or add to the drawings.
5. Please specify the required connections of the (2) 2x6 to the girder truss. The truss
manufacturer typically does not specify the required connections to columns. They
leave that up to the EOR. IBC 2304.9.7
8. . Sheet 3 FOUNDATION PLAN:
6. Provide an analysis that a footing is not required at the 6X8 beam at the comer
porch. It seems a footing is required at this location.
7. Provide calculations to justify the connection with 2 V2 diameter X 6" lag at the
post.
8. Provide framing requirements for an 18" X 24" crawl space access when joists are
spaced at 16" O/C. A detail for the framing is required to be specified.

Norkri Corporation
9. Provide an analysis for the Y2 masonry anchor attachment for the ledger to support
the deck framing. Without knowing the embedment; the end placement etc, there is
no way to check if the ledger will support the required loads. Also, please provide
the n1anufacturer of the anchors in order to check connections, �Am Al—
W'D FiC 04Y oP— &U2&&ACAt1-V-
10. Please specify the requiredjoist hangers to use to support the loads. All that is
called out is joist hangers. This is required to be added to the drawings in order to
check the capacity. The contractor should not be making this decision.
11. Please modify the raised shear wall. The code requires the height to be measured to
the top of the wall and not the opening height unless the design has been submitted
to transfer the forces around the opening and detail accordingly. Please modify.
IBC 2305.3.4
Shed 4 GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS:
15. Please reference the detail to the plan to show where each detail is required to be
used.
12. Deck Detail: The code requires the guard rail to resist a force of 200 pounds
applied in any directions and the components to resist 50 psf. Please modify detail
to meet this requirement. I13C 1607.7.1.1 IBC 1607.7.1.2
17. Deck Detail: Please specify the required connection of the IX4 lateral bracing
applied to the underside of the deck. Nothing is specified at this time on this detail.
13. Deck Detail: The frost line depth for the City of Edmonds as published in table
R301.2 is 18" and not 12" Modify detail to state 18" and not 12". Table R301.2
14. Brick Veneer: Please clarify where this detail applies for this house. The engineer
of record did not use the dead load for brick veneer when doing the lateral designs.
I assume this detail does not apply for this structure. If that is the case please cross
off or point out where this occurs.
15. Restrained Foundation Wall: Provide calculations for the restrained foundation
wall. A check of analysis shows # 4 grade 40 steel will not support the required
forces. Provide an analysis to justify. IBC 1806.1
21 - Intermediate Brg. Support: Provide analysis that the concrete nails and the toe
nailing will resist lateral forces as required per IBC 2304.9.7 R407.3
16. The code requires the vertical bars to have a standard 90 degree. The drawings
show straight bar embedments. Please modify all details to show the 90 degree
hook. R403.1.3
