RE: Plan Check: 2010-0654
Project: OReilly Auto Parts
Project Address: 23005 Highway 99
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 Theresa Umbaugh, Senior Permit
Coordinator. Thank you.
1.Required special inspections have been identified for the project. They will include soils
inspections by the geotechnical engineer as well as structural special inspections for
concrete, steel and highs bolting. Please fill out, sign and return the attached special
inspection agreement forms (one for each agency).
2.It is unclear on the plans whether the envelope design meets the criteria of the (2006)
Washington State Energy Code. Please complete the attached Envelope Summary form to
show either a prescriptive approach or a component performance approach, as outlined in
chapter 13 of the WSEC. Verify that insulation notes and details on the plans accurately
reflect the envelope design requirements, and make any changes necessary. For example,
prescriptive minimums include wall insulation at R-19 (not R-13 as shown) and slab
insulation at R-10 (which is typically 2 inches thick instead of 1½ inches).
3.Suspended ceilings with areas exceeding 2500 square feet are required to incorporate a
seismic separation joint or a a full height wall partition that breaks up the area. Please show
on the plans how this will be accomplished. For more information please refer to Field
Technical Document 401 as found at the NW Wall and Ceiling Bureau wesite
