RE: Plan Check: BLD2018-0739
Project Address: 21616 92nd AVE W.
Scope: Remodel, SFR, VB Construction, Plumbing and Mechanical included.
Please be advised that the building plans for the above referenced project have been disapproved
for the purposes of obtaining a building permit. During a review of the plans by the Building
Division for compliance with the applicable building codes, it was found that the following
information, clarifications, or changes are needed. Reviews by other divisions, such as Planning,
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
written response in itemized letter format indicating where the ‘clouded’ or otherwise
highlighted changes can be found on the revised plans, have been submitted to a Permit
Coordinator.
Resubmittals must be made at the Development Services Department on the 2nd Floor of City Hall.
Permit Center hours are M, T, Th, & F from 8am-4:30pm and from 8:30am-12pm on Wednesdays.
A4:
1. It appears that a 2x4 wall is intended to separate the exercise and lower floor bath, with
the exercise room directly communicating with the garage, which is “unconditioned”
space. To meet the prescriptive requirements of the WSEC, R21 insulation is required
and does not fit into a 2x4 wall. Please clarify and change on the plans.
2. The man door at the garage is labeled as “20 minute fire door”. This door will also
require a self-closing device to the plans. Please add the note to the plans.

S1.1:
3. As indicated on page A5, detail 3/S1.1 is the intended construction for the piers
supporting the steel columns. The supplied structural calculations do not appear to match
the plans. The provided calcs appear to indicate a 20” x 20” base plate and the plans
show a 16”x 1’4”. Please clarify and address on the plans.
4. Detail 4/S1.1 indicates an installation of 5/8” x 18” A.B. Please clarify which type of
A.B. is to be used on the plans.
General:
5. For clarification, will the welding take place on-site or be fabricated off –site? If the
welding is to take place on-site a Special Inspection Testing Agreement will need to
filled out and returned prior to permit issuance. Please clarify.
Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.
Sincerely,
Eric Carter
