| | ACTION: DENIED |
| | |
| | 1) 2ND REQUEST. THE FLOOR PLAN MISSING THE QUALIFIER |
| | SIGNATURE, NOTE IT CAN BE AN ELECTRONIC SIGNATURE. THE |
| | SCHEDULE/ WIND LOAD CHART DOES NOT HAVE THE QUALIFIERS |
| | PRINTED NAME, SIGNATURE NOR LICENSE NUMBER. |
| | 1ST ROUND COMMENTS. THE WRIGHT?S FLOOR PLAN & OPENING |
| | SCHEDULE NEEDS TO SHOW WHO THE AUTHOR IS OF THE PLAN. |
| | CERTIFICATION BY CONTRACTOR. 107.3.4.3. THE CONTRACTOR |
| | (QUALIFIER) THAT CREATED / DREW THE SET OF PLANS WILL |
| | NEED TO IDENTIFY THEMSELVES AS THE AUTHOR OF THE PLANS. |
| | PLEASE PRINT YOUR NAME, SIGN YOUR NAME AND LICENSE |
| | NUMBER FOR THE TRADE YOU ARE LICENSED IN AND PLANS |
| | DRAWN. |
| | |
| | 2) 2ND REQUEST. PLEASE PROVIDE A OVERALL FLOORPLAN OF |
| | THE BUILDING AND IDENTIFY THE UNIT WITHIN THE FLOOR |
| | PLAN. ASKED IN THE FIRST ROUND OF COMMENTS, THIS IS NOT |
| | A SQUARE OR RECTANGULAR BUILDING. IT IS A CURVED |
| | CRESCENT SHAPED BUILDING; WE LOOK AT THE WIND COMING |
| | FROM EVERY DIRECTION. WITH THE CURVED CRESCENT SHAPE |
| | AND THE BEDROOMS SET OUT AND THE LIVING ROOM AREAS SET |
| | BACK IT APPEARS THAT ALL OF THE OPENINGS ARE IN ZONE 5. |
| | PLEASE PROVIDE A DIMENSIONED PLAN OF THE FACE OF THE |
| | TENANT SPACE, LOCATION OF THE OPENINGS DIMENSIONED, THE |
| | DIMENSION TO THE CORNER OF THE INSET SECTION, WIDTH OF |
| | WALL FOR OPENING 2 & 5 SINCE THE ZONE 5 IS FEET WIDE |
| | OPENINGS 2 & 5 ARE DEFINITELY IN ZONE 5. IT APPEARS |
| | WINDOWS 1 & 6 MAY ALSO BE SET BACK WHEN VIEWING THE |
| | ELEVATIONS OF THE BUILDING USING GOOGLE MAPS. |
| | ENGINEERING EXPRESS SHEET SHOWS FOR COMPLEX BUILDINGS |
| | USE CORNER ZONES IF AT ALL IN QUESTION. THIS WILL |
| | GREATLY AFFECT THE PRESSURES ON THESE OPENINGS AND |
| | SUBMITTED SCHEDULE. |
| | |
| | 1ST ROUND COMMENTS. DRAWING 1 WRIGHT?S FLOOR PLAN DOES |
| | NOT SHOW THE FLOOR PLAN IN THE OVERALL CURVATURE OF THE |
| | BUILDING, NOR THE UNITS THAT ARE PROJECTED FURTHER OUT |
| | THAN OTHER PORTIONS OF THE WALL LINE CREATING A |
| | FLUTTERING OR GALLOPING AFFECT. ENGINEERING EXPRESS |
| | SHEET SHOWS FOR COMPLEX BUILDINGS USE CORNER ZONES IF |
| | AT ALL IN QUESTION. THIS WILL GREATLY AFFECT THE |
| | PRESSURES ON THESE OPENINGS AND SUBMITTED SCHEDULE. |
| | BUILDING END ZONES (5). THE FLOOR PLAN LAYOUT INDICATES |
| | THE WORK TO BE PERFORMED UNDER THIS PERMIT IS A CORNER |
| | UNIT OF A HIGHRISE BUILDING. THE WIND LOAD CHART UNDER |
| | NOTES STATES WHAT IS CONSIDERED AN END ZONE 10% OF THE |
| | LEAST HORIZONTAL DISTANCE OF THE BUILDING OR 40% OF THE |
| | MRH, BUT NOT LESS THAN 4% OF THE LEAST HORIZONTAL |
| | DISTANCE OR 3 FT. THE CONTRACTOR HAS NOT IDENTIFIED |
| | WHAT THE LEAST HORIZONTAL DISTANCE IS FOR THE BUILDING |
| | NOR THE LOCATION OF THE UNIT IN RELATIONSHIP TO THE |
| | BUILDING AND THE INTERCOASTAL WATERWAY. EXAMPLE ONLY. |
| | IF THE BUILDING HEIGHT IS APPROXIMATELY 180 FT. (MRH.) |
| | X 0.40= 72 FEET. THIS WOULD PUT ALL OPENINGS IN WIND |
| | ZONE 5 OR 10% OF THE LEAST HORIZONTAL DISTANCE OF THE |
| | BUILDING, ALSO UNKNOWN. |
| | |
| | 3) THE REVIEW OF THE SUBMITTED PRODUCT CAN?T BE |
| | DETERMINED BUT ALREADY THERE ARE ISSUES WITH THE SILLS, |
| | THEY ARE NOT MARKED WHICH SILL HEIGHT IS GOING TO BE |
| | INSTALLED. THE 2 ? INCH SILL DOES NOT MEET THE REQUIRED |
| | POSITIVE PRESSURES OF ZONE 4. WITH THE HIGHER POSITIVE |
| | PRESSURES OF ZONE 5 THE 3 1/8-INCH SILL MAY NOT WORK. |
| | ZONE 5 THE NEGATIVE PRESSURES WILL ALSO INCREASE. |
| | |
| | 4) A TRANSMITTAL LETTER LISTING THE ORIGINAL REVIEW |
| | COMMENT NUMBER, WITH A DESCRIPTION OF THE REVISION |
| | MADE, IDENTIFYING THE SHEET OR SPECIFICATION PAGE WHERE |
| | THE CHANGES CAN BE FOUND WILL HELP TO EXPEDITE YOUR |
| | PERMIT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ANTICIPATED COOPERATION. |
