During review it was found that the following information is needed. Please give this comment
letter to the stonetile company so that they may provide you the correct information to resubmit for
our review. Please resubmit to Theresa Umbaugh, Senior Permit Coordinator.
1.Please provide current compliance information for the stonetile product for the 2006
International Building Code (IBC) for anchored masonry veneer (IBC 1405.5). We were unable
to find this needed information on the website.
2.Edmonds is located in seismic design category D. Provide seismic design and detailing of the
anchored veneer in accordance with ACI 530-2005 (IBC 1405.5.2). The building exterior walls
are concrete masonry units. Specify if cells of existing walls are grouted solid or hollow.
Anchoring details must be applicable to the construction of the existing exterior wall. The detail
provided with the permit application shows a solid concrete wall, not concrete masonry units.
3.Provide manufacturerÂ’s installation instructions for the stonetile product.
