the post should be specified. R502.9 IBC 2304.9.7
Ok Please provide the connection of the post to the beam on the drawings. I was
unable to find where this was called out. Also typical there is not enough
bearing for the beams at the splice so the columns are increased to 4x6 at these
locations. Provide analysis that this is not required. R502.9, IBC 2304.9.7

All the details on the drawing assume the joist will be either bearing on a beam
or a post. This is not all the case. Some areas show the beam to be flush with
the joist. Please specify the hanger to use at these locations. For example at the
