During a review of the plans by the Building Division for the above noted project, it was found that
the following information, clarifications, or changes are needed. A complete review cannot be
performed until the revised plans/documents, including a written response indicating where the
clouded or otherwise highlighted changes can be found on the revised plans, have been submitted
to a Permit Coordinator. Reviews by other divisions, such as Planning, Engineering, or Fire, may
result in additional comments.
Lateral Design
1.Please clarify why some exterior walls that are included in the lateral design calculations are
unlabeled (not specified as shear walls) on the plan.
2.It appears that the perforated shear wall method of design was intended at wall line A.
However, no calculations/details regarding the perforated shear wall analysis were provided.
Either provide the appropriate calculations and details for perforated shear walls or indicate
holdowns at each end of each wall per the calculations.
3.Per the calculation table provided in the calculation packet, it appears that significant
overturning forces (>1000 lbs) occur at wall lines C and G1, but holdowns were not
specified in these locations. Please clarify.
4.Beam B-1 - It appears that the design for beam B-1 excludes the point load from the girder
truss.
5.Beam B-2 It appears that the trusses bear upon B-2, however the tributary area used to
calculate the roof load is incorrect. Please revise.
6.Beam PB-1 It appears that beam PB-1 is missing the point load from the Hip Master
above.
7.Beam B-10 No calculations could be found for the cantilevered beam B-10. Please
provide.
