The above referenced project is in the process of plan review for compliance with
Edmonds ordinances and applicable codes. The following comments,
deficiencies/corrections must be addressed prior to completion of plans review and
subsequent issuance of permits.
Provide revised pians and calculations along with a written response to each of the items
listed below to facilitate a shorter back -check time.
SCOPE OF REVIEW
The scope of this review is for the Ordinance, Structural, V&IAQC and Energy
requirements of this project.
All features were checked only to the extent allowed by the submittals provided. All
portions of this project are assumed to meet or will meet other departmental requirements,
conditions and concerns before permit approval.
STRUCTURAL COMMENTS
Sheet 1: Foundation Details
1. 2. The drawing state the post will be noted on the plan but the post sizes appear
not to be specified. Please add this to the drawings. Post size is not specified for
the crawl space beam. All that is noted is 4x6 post at beam splices. I assume the
intent is to use a 4x4 but this is not specified on the drawings. Please modify
accordingly.
2. 3. Detail 2: Please sped the required connection of the joist to the supporting
crawl space beam. This is very important since this is what braces the
compression part due to bending. The alternative is to submit analysis for the
beam completely un -braced. This still has not been added to the drawings. Detail 2
on sheet 1 does not specified how the joist will be connected to the supporting
beam.
3. 4. Engineer of Record (EOR), please specify the required past to foundation
connections for the post above the supporting 7X9-1/2 PSI, and girder truss at the
extended family room. I was unable to determine this from the drawings submitted.
EOR, please submit manufacture information. for ABU to be used for multi sawn
lumber. The drawings state 5-2x to be used as post. Please provide detail how this
will be built.
Sheet 2 Main Floor framing plan
4. S. EOR please provide analysis for the 2x]0 ledger attached to the house to
support the design loads. Note nails cannot be used for withdrawal loads for
ledger connections. IBC 1604.8.3 8502.2.2. Analysis still has not been submitted
for the ledger connections. Justify one V2 lag screw @ 32" OIC will support the
required design loads. Also the response state there is not any withdrawal on the
ledger. But there is as required per code. The deck will see lateral due to minimum
out of plane loads. This must be addressed.
Sheet Sl: Details
5. 13. EOR, please note a 90 degree hook for the vertical reinforcement steel in the
footing. The alternative is to submit an analysis for straight embedment(s) as
required per ACI. Response states see revised drawings but the drawings do not
specify a 90 degree hook. Please modify drawings as noted in the response.
