During review of the plans for the above noted project, it was found that the following information,
clarifications or changes are needed. Provide written responses to each comment and where
changes can be found on the plans. Please resubmit to Theresa Umbaugh, Permit Coordinator.
1.The structural calculations submitted with your 9/21/07 resubmittal must be stamped and signed
by a State licensed Professional Engineer (IRC 106.1) and contain minimum design information
per IBC Chapter 16.
2.As discussed at our meeting, please dimension the framing plan for the north half of the roof.
Dimension the spans of all beams/headers and rafters, as well as the exterior walls (perimeter) of
the building. Without this information the loads cannot be verified. Also, note the scale of the
plan such as ¼ = 1 foot or 3/16 = 1 foot (currently it does not appear to be a recognized scale).
This is required in the Citys Addition/Remodel handout previously provided to you.
3.Kitchen addition (see attached handout):
a.As noted in the Building Officials letter to you dated September 24, 2007, provide
complete plans of the kitchen addition, including foundation, floor framing, elevation
views, (roof framing already provided), and cross reference the building sections that
you have drawn on the framing plans. Examples of plans and details can be found in
the enclosed handout.
b.Based on the section submitted for the Kitchen West Wall Load Path, the roof
framing is non-conventional construction and does not meet the conventional
provisions of IRC 802.3. Plans and structural calculations must be stamped and
signed by a State licensed Professional Engineer.
c.Complete the enclosed Energy Worksheets for the kitchen addition and note all
insulation R-values and window U-values on the plans. If the addition cannot meet
current energy code requirements, construction must be revised to accommodate the
minimum insulation values, or energy calculations using the Component
Performance approach (WSEC Chapter 5) must be provided. For example, 2x6 floor
joists cannot hold R-30 batt insulation (minimum would be 2x10), however you may
see if rigid insulation will meet this requirement.
d.Based on the floor plan, walls do not minimum bracing requirements of IRC 602.10
(also see State Amendments). Lateral calculations must be stamped and signed by a
State Licensed Professional Engineer.
e.½ Anchor bolts must be spaced no more than 6 o.c., located 12 of each end of
each plate with minimum 7 embedment and 3x3 washers.
f.Specify thickness of wall and roof sheathing, as well as nail spacing.
g.Note the kitchen addition on the site plan.
h.Provide deck plans, including the roof cover over the deck. This must be included in
this permit as well. See enclosed deck handout for minimum plans and details.
4.Specify post and beam connections.
5.All wood in contact with concrete must be pressure treated or naturally resistant to decay (such
as foundation redwood). Revise plans to show this where ever new members are being added.
