RE:Plan Check: BLD2019-0562Project Address: 8614 238th Street S.W.
Scope: 288 square foot deck addition.
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.Sheet
A-1:Clarify on the plans the callout for the 4x10 and the 4x12 to be used to support the deck joists. They appear to be over spanned and fail in bending. Specify the proposed species
and grade of the beams on the plans.Clarify on the plans the spacing of the 2x10 deck joists to be used. Based on the ¼ scale provided, I have scaled the spacing to be at 16” O.C..
At this spacing they appear to be over spanned and fail in bending. Specify the proposed species and grade of the joists in the response to the plan review comment. Clarify on plans
for the detail indicated as“deck anchored to foundation”. The 2x10 ledger is fastened to foundation with “sleeve anchors”. The 2015 IRC section R507 stats that decks shall be positivelyanchored
to the primary structure for both vertical and lateral loads. Specify the manufactures details/installation and structural values on the sleeve anchors that is proposedfor this project
to ensure that the proper anchors and installation is being conducted for this project.Upon review of the resubmitted documents, additional comments may be generated. Please let me
know if I can be of any further assistance.
Sincerely,
