Project: Gray addition

Project Address: 22306 92 Avenue W
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.
On page 2:
1.Foundation Plan - Indicate on the plans the size of the existing beams supporting the loads
over the garage door openings.
2.Foundation Plan - Clarify the identification of the 6x8 LAMINATE BEAMS HF #2 to be
used to support the existing garage ceiling/floor joists for the addition. Sawn members are
typically identified by nominal size, species, and grade, such as that noted. Glued-laminated
beams (also identified as glulams or GLBs) have different sizing, and are identified by their
layup, such as 24F-V4 DF/DF.
3.Foundation Plan - Clarify the callout for the 6x8 LAMINATE BEAMS HF #2 to be used
to support the existing garage ceiling/floor joists for the addition. They appear to be over
spanned, fail in bending, and deflect beyond that allowed per Table R307.1.
4.Foundation Plan Clarify the callout for the #2 2x8 HF to be used as the existing garage
ceiling/floor joists for the addition. They appear to be over spanned and fail in bending in
the area below the walk-in-closet with the 9 foot span.
On page 3:
5.Wall & Roof Framing Plan - Clarify the callout for the #2 2x6 HF to be used as ceiling
joists/roof rafters over the hallway, Computer Room, and a portion of the walk-in-closet.
They are over spanned, fail in bending, and deflect beyond that allowed per Table R307.1.
6.Wall & Roof Framing Plan - Clarify the callout for the #2 2x8 HF to be used as ceiling
joists/roof rafters over a portion of the walk-in-closet. The overhang deflects beyond that
allowed per Table R307.1.
7.Wall & Roof Framing Plan - Indicate on the plans the means to be used to provide the
required R-38 roof insulation per WSEC Table R402.1.1.
8.Wall & Roof Framing Plan - Indicate on the plans the means to be used to provide the
required roof ventilation per R806.1.
9.Wall & Roof Framing Plan - Indicate on the plans the exterior wall construction and the
means to be used to provide the required R-21 wall insulation per WSEC Table R402.1.1.
10.Wall & Roof Framing Plan - Indicate on the plans the direction of the swing of the 32
door at the top of the proposed stairs to the hallway.
11.Wall & Roof Framing Plan - Clarify the square footage of the proposed Computer Room.
It does not appear to meet the requirements of R304.2 and R304.3. The dimensions of the
room could not be determined by scaling because the plans are not drawn to the ¼=1
scale indicated.
12.Elevation View of Addition Clarify the callout for the 18x8x6 footing to be used to
support the loads from the 6x8 LAMINATE BEAMS HF #2. They appear to be smaller
than that required to support the design loads at each of the post locations.
