During a 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, cloud all changes on the revised plans, and submit the revised
plans/documents to a Permit Coordinator. Thank you.
General Note: The following plan review comments regard the revised construction documents
submitted for the re-design of the method to be used to resist the lateral forces imposed upon the
structure.
On page A-2:
1.Holdown Schedule Clarify the difference in the holdown type listed for use at locations
marked T-1 and that required in the provided revised structural calculations. Note per
the manufacturer, the use of the HHDQ11-SDS2.5 holdown requires a Douglas-fir post,
with a minimum wood member thickness of 5-1/2, for its connection to develop the
allowable tension load required to meet the calculated load.
2.Holdown Schedule Provide the installation information needed for the PAB8-XX
holdown anchorage to develop the allowable tension load required to meet the calculated
load. The anchor bolt length, manufacturers installation requirements, and the placement by
the installer may affect the configuration of the wall footing shown on detail 2/A-2.
3.Shearwall Schedule Clarify the difference in the shearwall construction indicated and that
noted in detail 2/A-2 and required in the provided revised structural calculations.
