During review of the above noted application, it was found that the following information,
corrections, or clarifications are needed. Please redline plans or submit two (2) sets of revised
plans/documents (affected sheets only) with a written response to each of the items below to a
Permit Coordinator.
1) Provide reduced copy of the site plan on 8 %" x 14" or smaller scaled 1 "=20'.
2) A deck of the same dimensions with slightly different stair configuration was applied for under
permit 2005-0287. We still have complete plans and structural calculations. If you would like to
use these plans we can make copies ($5/page) otherwise the following comments apply to the
plans submitted.
3) Clarify how the landing is being supported at the opposite side of the stairs. Along the house
there is a ledger but what happens from the house to the other post. Please clarify.
4) Per M1001.15 masonry chimneys shall have a minimum 2" clearance to combustibles. Specify
on the plans how this will be obtained around the chimney on each level.
5) Maximum ledger lag bolt size and spacing is 3/8" x 4 %Z" at 4" o.c. Revise plans or provide
calculations stamped and signed by a Washington State Licensed Professional Engineer.
6) Maximum rise for the stairs is 73/4" and minimum run is 10". Revise all stair notes to reflect.
7) For the guardrail show pickets spaced so that a 4" sphere can not pass through.
8) Minimum 36" x 36" hard surface landing is required at the bottom of the stairs. Note on plans
and site plan.
