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 a permit coordinator in the Development Services Department. Thank you.
Sheet A1
1.Energy credit Option 5b Efficient Water Heating is specified on sheet A1 and the permit application form. This
option is sufficient to attain the minimum 1.5 energy credits required by WSEC Table 406.2. This approach will
require a tankless water heater in order to achieve the minimum EF of .82; however, the floor plan on sheet A5
shows a tank style water heater. Please show a tankless WH on the floor plan, or clarify how the 1.5 energy credit
will otherwise be achieved.
Sheet A8
2.The title of sheet says Upper Floor Flooring Plan. Should this not read Upper Floor Framing Plan?
Sheets A7, A8 and A9
3.Provide bolting pattern for all built up beams. Include engineering calculations for these connections. Or, you
may indicate on the plans the use of the solid LVL beams as already shown in the current structural calculations.
Sheet S1.3
4.Detail 18/S1.3 (as referenced from sheet A9) shows a girder truss configuration instead of the roof beam
configuration shown on A9. Please provide a detail showing the actual construction surrounding the roof beam.
