During a review of the plans for the above noted project, it was found that the following
information, clarifications or changes are needed. Please provide written responses as to where the
changes can be found on the plans, cloud all changes on the revised plans, and submit the revised
plans/documents to a Permit Coordinator. Previous items that recur on this list appear in italics.
Thank you.
On page S-2:
1.Garage & House Lower Shear Walls Clarify the difference in the location and width of the
window in the south wall of the kitchen and that shown on page A-4 and A-6. Windows
shown on the architectural plans do not appear the same on the structural plans or in the
structural calculations.
2.Garage & House Lower Shear Walls - Clarify the difference in the shear wall lengths and
windows noted in the structural calculation for the south wall of the kitchen (wall line 2)
and that shown on the plans. Windows shown on the architectural plans do not appear the
same on the structural plans or in the structural calculations.
nd
3.Garage & House 2
Floor Framing - Clarify the difference in the callout for Beam 26 3-
1/8x10-1/2 GLB and that noted in the provided structural calculations. The beam called
out on the plans appears to be overspanned. The provided structural calculations justify the
use of a 3-1/8x13-1/2 GLB.
nd
4.Garage & House 2 Floor Framing Indicate the requirement that the specific header
extend over the adjacent shear wall as noted in the provided structural calculations.
nd
5.Garage & House 2 Floor Framing - Clarify the difference in the location of the Future
Elevator and that shown on pages A-4 and A-5. The second floor bathroom would have to
be reconfigured if framed as shown. The location of the Future Elevator shown on the
architectural plans, and the configuration of the floor framing members to accommodate it,
do not appear the same on the structural plans or in the structural calculations.
nd
6.Garage & House 2 Floor Framing - Identify framing member number 3 to be used as
joists for the second floor framing. The revised structural calculations note #2 Hem-fir
3x12s at 12 on-center as a check for loading/span. The construction documents indicate
I-joists per Manf. Specs. without specifying a particular framing member. The #2 Hem-fir
3x12s at 12 on-center, verified by the structural calculations, could be used but have to be
specifically noted on the plans.
nd
7.Garage & House 2 Floor Framing Clarify the difference in the span for beam 4 5-
1/8x13-1/2 24F-V4 GLB and that noted in the structural calculations. The location of the
Future Elevator shown on the architectural plans, and the configuration of the floor
framing members to accommodate it, do not appear the same on the structural plans or in the
structural calculations.
On page S-4:
8.Holdown Schedule Clarify the difference between the callout for the foundation anchorage
shown for holdowns T-1, T-2, T-3, and T-4 and that noted in the structural
calculations. The installation criteria for the foundation anchorage and the associated
comments are not the same as that noted in the structural calculations.
