RE: Plan Check # 2006-0940
Project: Aegis Retirement Inn
Project Address: 21500 72' Ave W
During re -review of the plans for the above noted project, it was found that the following
information, clarifications or changes are needed. I have redlined the plans to address past
comments where appropriate, but there are still some items that must be addressed on the plans by
the Architect. Please provide written responses to each comment and note where changes can be
found on the plans. Submit revised plans/documents to Marie Harrison, Permit Coordinator
1 Previous item 5A: I/A3.lc wall detail separating dwelling units WP -3380 has an STC rating
of only 44 where a minimum of 50 is required per IBC 1207.
2 Previous item 8: Your letter states that you estimate that 29% of the construction budget is
allocated to ADA upgrades, but you do not state how you arrived at that number. Please revise
as previously discussed in the November 2nd meeting. The City must be able to verify
compliance with WAC 51-50 3409.6 exception 1, which we are unable to do as your letter is
currently written.
3 Previous item 12: On Sheet D3 the "using fiber insulation" detail for ducts penetrating I -hour
assemblies references "IBC Figure CA 712.4 A". We are unable to find this figure in the IBC
or IBC Commentary. Please provide for our review. Are you intending for this detail to be an
option to the gyp wrapped joist bay detail shown below? Please explain.
4 Previous item 14: 1 -hour protection of steel columns and beams Sheet D3: Provide listed and
tested 1 -hour fire rated assemblies for these details and cross reference where they apply on
the plans. As discussed in the November 2nd meeting, provide details for individual protection
of wood columns and beams. Where existing wood or steel columns and beams are exposed
during construction, they trust be individually protected to 1 -hour construction where
supporting a floor and roof or more than one floor, or supporting a fire barrier or fire partition.
5 Comment from the Fire Marshal: On the site plan, a tank enclosure is noted. What type of
tank is this? There is currently an LPG generator on site, but no LPG tank to fuel it. If it is an
LPG tank, a separate permit is required and it must meet location requirements per the IFC.
Contact John Westfall if you have questions.
