REV1 BLD2023-1236+REVISION DESCRIPTION 4.22.2024_10.50.24_PM+4212257I. L. GROSS STRUCTURAL ENGINEERS PROJECT MEMORANDUM Date: April 22, 2024 To: City of Edmonds Building Department From: Victor Martinez Re: Martinez ADU Post Permit Revision # 1 - BLD2023-1236 This memo is regarding the proposed Post Permit Revisions to the architectural & structural drawings dated 19 April 2024. The changes to the architectural & structural plans have been clouded in blue and marked with a Delta 5. Below is the list of the proposed revisions to the design. 1 ) The floor framing between the ADU & the upper floor of the main house consists of (3) framing types: a) Existing 2x car decking on 4x8 beams at 4'-o"oc. b) Existing 2x13's @ 13" oc, c) new 9.5" TJI joists. We propose to replace details 3 & 5/A7 with alternate 1 hour fire separate details on sheets FP-1 & FP-2 provided by Mannex Engineering. The new details eliminate the Exacor sheathing on top of the floor sheathing and achieve 1 hour ratings using existing framing, sheathing & furred gypsum sheathing layers from below. 2) The upper floor joists in the new addition portion of the project have been revised to either 1 .75 x 9.25 Microlam joists or 2x10 DF joists as noted on the revised structural framing plan. The final option chosen will depend on cost. No other structural details will change as a result of this revision to the joists. The goal of these revisions is to increase the ceiling height and provide one method of 1 hour fire separation using 2x10 nominal framing sizes across the length of the ADU & adjacent bedroom. We hope this memo is adequate for your current needs. Feel free to reach out with any questions. F i
