Project: United Methodist Church organ
Project Address: 828 Caspers Street
During review of the plans for the above noted project, it was found that the following information,
clarifications or changes are needed. Please provide written responses as to where the changes can be found
on the plans, and submit revised plans/documents to Marie Harrison, Senior Permit Coordinator. Thank you.
1.
The structural calculations specify the allowable soil bearing to be 8000 psf per previous
structurals. The most recent city records for soils on this site are from an AMEC geotechnical
report dated October 23, 2001 which allows a bearing capacity of 2500 psf. If the value of 8000 psf
is to be used, please justify this by obtaining a new soils report. Please provide calculations showing
that the footings are sized properly, whether using the capacity of 2500 psf or 8000 psf accordingly.
