Engineering, or Fire, may result in additional comments that require attention beyond the scope of
this letter. Items that recur on this list appear in italics.
A complete review cannot be performed until the revised plans/documents, including a

Sheet A-3:
The existing 4x 12 located in the upper portion of the proposed building plans is
extremely over spanned for the anticipated 15PSF of "dead load" and 25PSF of "snow
load" as required by table R3 01.5 and R3 01.2.2.2. 1. 1 understand this is an existing beam
that was intended to remain, but due to its unsafe nature and as determined by the
Building Official this beam will need to comply with IRC 30 1. I.Please show on the
plans a resolution to this overstressed beam.
Please let me know if I can be of any additional assistance.
