a.Note #3 Provide on the plans the detail referenced regarding the clear framed glass
relite at the entrance to space 116 Pan.
b.Note #14 Change on the plans the elevation reference for the partial-height
partition from 16/I-8.1.1 to 16/I-8.1.
On sheet I-3.1 Floor Plan:
7.Floor Plan
a.Clarify the maneuvering clearance on the ingress side of door 103 to space 104
Checkout. It does not appear to comply with that required per ICC A117.1-2009
Table 404.2.3.2.
b.Clarify the maneuvering clearance on the egress side of door 118 to space 118
Restroom. It does not appear to comply with that required per ICC A117.1-2009

shaft enclosure(s) for the required supply and exhaust ventilation ducts from space 122
Medical Gas to the exterior per IFC 5306.2.2. While the installation of the mechanical
ventilation system components to provide the required minimum rate of 1 CFM per square
foot of room may be permitted and performed under deferred or separate permit, the
required shaft enclosure(s) must be represented on the plans to guide proper review,
construction, and inspection.

On sheet I-8.1 Interior Elevations:
10.Elevation 8 Checkout 104 North View Verify on the plans that the final installation of
the Checkout counter meets the requirements of ICC A117.1-2009 section 904.3.1.
Allowing for the vertical portion, from below the 42 high transaction surface to the top of
the 30 portion below, to be open for a depth of at least 1 foot would appear to allow that
portion to meet the requirement for use as an accessible service counter using a parallel
approach at the end of the counter.
11.Elevation 9 Checkout 104 East View See review comment #10 above.
On sheet I-8.2 Interior Elevations:
12.Elevation 4 Cerec 126 East View Change on the plans the section reference for the
casework from 16/I-9.3.3 to 13/I-9.3.3.

On sheet I-9.1 Construction Details:
16.Detail 4 Full Ht. Partition
a.Indicate on the plans the measure (expressed in inches/fractions of an inch) of
designed deflection to allow for in the installation of the full height partitions to
avoid moment reversal in the horizontal floor framing structural members and to
guide proper review, construction and inspection. The information could not be
found in the provided structural calculations.
b.Indicate on the plans the required installation criteria of the top of full height walls at
the deflection track. Most manufacturers require very specific installation to perform
as intended to prevent moment reversal.
17.Detail 5 Partial Ht. Partition Change on the plans the detail reference for the steel
stanchion used to support the partial height partition from 14/I-9.1 to 10/I-9.1.
18.Detail 6 1 Hr. Rated Full Ht. Partition

d.Change on the plans as needed the installation criteria of the various materials
represented to coincide with that required in UL Design No. 419. For example, there
does not appear to be an allowance for the spacing of fasteners used to attach floor or

b.See review note #16.b. above.
22.Detail 15 Ceiling Mounted Equipment Clarify the reference to detail 8/I-9.1 for the
required attachment to the structure above to support ceiling mounted equipment. The
referenced detail does not appear to apply. Verify that any detail provided and referenced in
response to this review comment accounts for the tension loads developed by the variety of
equipment to be installed.
23.Detail 16 Wood Veneer Bridge at Hallway
a.Clarify the noted allowable deflection measurement found in the information
regarding the deflection track. The information could not be found in the provided
structural calculations see also review note # 16.a. above.

appear to meet the requirements for use as an interior exit stairway fire barrier
opening protective per IBC Table 716.5.
b.Clarify on the plans the indicated fire-resistance rating of door 122. It does not
appear to meet the requirements for an opening into a one-hour rated interior medical
