Please provide new site plan on paper no larger than 8 '/z" x 14". 2) Show cfm and location of whole house fan on the floor plans. Per submitted energy form fan will be 200 cfin. 3) Show specifications for proposed spiral stairs (tread depth, headroom, 26" minimum stairway width, ect.) complying with IRC R311.5.8.1 on the plans. 4) On the elevation views show that the bench rail meets the minimum guardrail requirements (i.e. rails spaced so that a 4" sphere can not pass). Currently as show it does not appear to meet this. 5) For the deck framing show all posts, beams and footings on the foundation and first floor framing plans. Clearly show how all beams are supported (i.e. area between the house and garage and around the hot tub). 6) Per IRC R502.2.1 ledgers can not be attached to the house with nails subject to withdrawal. Revise details 5/S2.2 and 8/S3.1 and provide calculations for proposed attachment (bolts/screws). 7) For detail 4/A7.0 specify ledger attachment for double 2x8 ledger and provide calculations to justify. 8) For ledger shown in section 2 on sheet A5.0 also specify ledger attachment and provide calculations to justify. 9) 4x4 post supporting 8xS beams will not provide full bearing.

It appears that it may be supported by the beam below. If this is the case provide calculations for that beam including point loads. 11) Provide calculation for 6x10 beam at grid B second floor. 12) In the calculations on sheet 17 for Beam Grid 4 calculations are provided but no beam is specified and reactions are not calculated. Please complete calculation and specify beam.
