| 2009-08-02 12:02:17 | ** DENIED REVIEW OF REVISIONS FOR FINAL ** |
| | |
| | FINAL REVISIONS SUBMITTED FOR SPRING HILL SUITES. |
| | |
| | 1) NOTE: IN THE INITIAL AND SUBSEQUENT REVIEWS |
| | SUBMITTED CIRCUITING ON PLANS FOR LIGHTING, RECEPTACLES |
| | AND OTHER ITEMS ARE GONE OVER FOR GENERAL MINIMUM CODE |
| | COMPLIANCE FOR LOADS, SIZING OF BRANCH CIRCUITS ETC. |
| | THE ACTUAL CIRCUITING IS ALWAYS KNOWN AS AN ITEM WHICH |
| | WILL BE REVISED DURING THE PROJECT BY THE ELECTRICAL |
| | CONTRACTOR. ALL FINAL PLANS SUBMITTED AS RECORD |
| | DOCUMENTS NEED TO HAVE ALL CIRCUITING UPDATED AND |
| | COORDINATED. THE LOADS NEED TO BE REVISED AS WELL AS |
| | OVER CURRENT PROTECTION ETC AS NEEDED. THE FOLLOWING |
| | NOTES ARE BASED ON MANY ITEMS ON PLANS WHICH DO NOT |
| | COORDINATE. |
| | |
| | ** PLEASE SEE 408.4 IN THE NEC. THIS IS THE SECTION FOR |
| | MANY OF THE NOTES BELOW WITH RESPECT TO CIRCUITING AND |
| | PANEL SCHEDULE INCONSISTENCIES. |
| | ALL CIRCUITING IS TO BE SPECIFIC TO ROOMS AND AREAS IN |
| | WHICH THEY FEED. THE USE OF *RECEPTACLES* OR *LIGHTING* |
| | IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. ALPHA AND/OR NUMERIC DESIGNATIONS |
| | MAY BE USED FOR LOCATIONS. A DESCRIPTION SUCH AS * |
| | LOBBY RECEPTS EAST* OR ROOM 101 LIGHTS, ROOM 117 |
| | RECEPTS OR OTHER TYPES OF DESIGNATIONS IS ACCEPTABLE. |
| | STATING *RECEPTACLES*, *LIGHTING* COULD MEAN ANY |
| | RECEPTACLES OR LIGHTING ANYWHERE IN THE BUILDING. |
| | |
| | THERE ARE ALSO ITEMS WHICH WERE REVISED DURING THE |
| | PROJECT WHICH WERE NOT INDICATED AS BEING A REVISION. |
| | SOME ARE NOW SHOWN NOT MEETING MINIMUM CODE COMPLIANCE. |
| | THERE ARE ALSO NOTES BELOW FOR THESE ITEMS. |
| | |
| | ***** IMPORTANT ****** |
| | PLEASE BE AWARE THAT MANY EXAMPLES WILL BE GIVEN BELOW |
| | HOWEVER IT SHOULD BE KNOWN THAT THESE ARE ONLY EXAMPLES |
| | AND NOT *ALL* ITEMS WHICH DO NOT COORDINATE. THERE ARE |
| | MANY OTHER ITEMS/CIRCUITS NOT NOTED. REVIEW IS NOT |
| | BASED ON A COMPLETE *PUNCH-LIST* OF ALL CIRCUITING |
| | WHICH NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. |
| | |
| | 2) NOTE: ORIGINAL PLANS INCLUDING THIS SET OF PLANS |
| | INDICATES J-BOXES AT MANY LOCATIONS SUCH AS EXTERIOR |
| | DOORS, STAIRS, AND OTHER LOCATIONS FOR *ACCESS CONTROL |
| | SYSTEM* ALSO KNOWN AS CARD READER SYSTEM TO BE BY |
| | OTHERS. KEY NOTES #8 ON E001 AND KEYNOTE #1 ON E401 ARE |
| | EXAMPLES OF TWO LOCATIONS OF THESE NOTES. |
| | TO DATE OF THIS REVIEW NO PERMIT APPLICATION, PLANS OR |
| | REVIEW FOR CARD READER ACCESS CONTROLS SYSTEM FOR THIS |
| | LOCATION AS BEEN SUBMITTED FOR REVIEW. THERE ARE NOTES |
| | ON PLANS WHICH MENTION ACCESS CONTROLS AND SOME |
| | CONNECTIONS TO THE FIRE ALARM SYSTEM HOWEVER IT IS ALSO |
| | NOTED TO BE DONE BY OTHERS. |
| | REVIEW FOR LIFE SAFETY REQUIREMENTS PER NFPA-101 |
| | CHAPTER 7 AND OTHER APPLICABLE CODES HAS NOT BEEN DONE. |
| | |
| | |
| | 3) NOTE: PLEASE SEE E-401. PLEASE SEE BREAK ROOM WHICH |
| | INDICATES TWU-1 CIRCUITED TO H1 1,3, HOWEVER PANEL |
| | SCHEDULE FOR THIS IS SHOWN AS SPARE. |
| | |
| | 4) NOTE: PLEASE SEE H1 SCHEDULE AS ALL TWU1 AND TWU2 |
| | UNITS NOTED ON CIRCUITS 2-32 NEED TO BE SPECIFIC TO |
| | ROOMS/LOCATIONS. |
| | |
| | 5) NOTE: PLEASE SEE E-401. PLEASE SEE OTHER EQUIPMENT |
| | IN THIS AREA SUCH AS CONDENSER PUMP FOR FCU#4 WHICH IS |
| | NOTED TO CIRCUIT M1-7, YET THE PANEL SCHEDULE FOR THIS |
| | SAME CIRCUIT IS FOR FCU#5. |
| | |
| | 6) NOTE: PLEASE SEE E-401. FCU#4 SHOWN AS M1-1,3,5 YET |
| | PANEL SCHEDULE INDICATES THIS AS ONLY CIRCUIT 1,3. IS |
| | THIS A 2-POLE OR 3-POLE UNIT? THIS MAY ALSO AFFECT LOAD |
| | CALCULATIONS DEPENDING ON UNIT. |
| | |
| | 7) NOTE: THE PANEL SCHEDULE FOR POOL PANEL *P* STATES |
| | MANY ITEMS AS *FUTURE* AND WHEN PERMITTING FOR BUILDING |
| | THIS WAS THE CASE. HOWEVER AT THIS TIME THE POOL PERMIT |
| | HAS BEEN DONE AND CIRCUITING SHOULD BE KNOWN. SEE NEXT |
| | COMMENT. |
| | WHAT ABOUT ACTUAL POOL LIGHT FIXTURES? |
| | |
| | |
| | 8) NOTE: PLEASE SEE SITE LIGHTING PLAN E-001 WHICH |
| | INDICATES POOL LIGHTS AS CIRCUITS 1,3, YET THE PANEL |
| | SCHEDULE SHOWS THIS AS BEING A PUMP AND NOT LIGHTS. |
| | |
| | 9) NOTE: PLEASE SEE SHEET E102 AND PANEL SCHEDULE |
| | SHEETS AS THERE ARE SEVERAL ITEMS WHICH NEED TO BE |
| | UPDATED. SHEET E102 SHOWS TYPICAL HOWEVER MANY OF THE |
| | ROOMS AND LOCATIONS ARE NOT SHOWN ACCURATE ON PANEL |
| | SCHEDULE. 408.4, 310.16, 220 ETC |
| | |
| | A) SHEET 102, ROOM *28, INDICATES H*55, 57 YET THE |
| | PANEL SCHEDULE FOR H5 55,57 INDICATES ROOM 527. |
| | |
| | B) SHEET 102, ROOM *11 INDICATES H* 22,24, YET THE |
| | PANEL SCHEDULE FOR H5 22,24 IS FOR ROOM 512. |
| | |
| | **THIS IS THE SAME FOR ALL ROOMS AND ALL LOCATIONS. THE |
| | TYPICAL ROOM DESIGNATIONS ARE NOT ACCURATE. |
| | |
| | C) SHEET E102, ROOM *24, INDICATES R*-127, 12. YET THE |
| | PANEL SCHEDULE FOR R5, CIRCUIT #12 FOR EXAMPLE |
| | INDICATES COFFEE RECEPTACLE IN ROOM 504. THIS IS THE |
| | OTHER END OF THE FLOOR. |
| | ROOM #504 DOES NOT SHOW ANY OF THESE CIRCUITS. |
| | |
| | D) SHEET E102, CIRCUIT R5-122, 124 ON PLANS ROOM *523, |
| | YET PANEL SCHEDULE FOR R5-122,124 IS FOR ROOM 524. |
| | |
| | 10) NOTE: SHEET E 105. THERE ARE SEVERAL CIRCUITS NOTED |
| | TO A PANEL M-4, HOWEVER NOT PANEL M-4 WAS SUBMITTED. |
| | |
| | A) PLEASE SEE M5-24 ON PLANS WHICH ARE FOR A RECEPTACLE |
| | AT RTU YET THE PANEL SCHEDULE FOR M5-24 MENTIONS A/C |
| | #7. |
| | |
| | B) PLEASE SEE NUMEROUS CIRCUITS ON THESE SAME SHEETS |
| | FOR SIGNAGE ALL SHOWN TO A PANEL M-4 YET NONE OF THESE |
| | CAN BE CONFIRMED. CIRCUITING FOR LOADS, OVER CURRENT |
| | PROTECTION ETC CAN NOT BE CONFIRMED MEETING MINIMUM |
| | CODE COMPLIANCE. **PLEASE BE AWARE OF THE SIGN PERMIT |
| | APPLICATIONS ARE SPECIFIC LOADS CAN BE LOCATED AND NEED |
| | TO BE PLACED INTO LOAD CALCULATIONS AS WELL AS PANEL |
| | SCHEDULES. |
| | |
| | 11) NOTE: PLEASE SEE E401, LOBBY RECEPTACLE CIRCUITS |
| | R-152, R-150 STATED AS * RECEPTACLES*. THIS IS ONE |
| | EXAMPLE OF ITEMS WHICH NEED TO BE SPECIFIC. THERE ARE |
| | DOZENS OF OTHERS. |
| | |
| | 12) NOTE: PLEASE SEE SAME SHEET E401, FOR CIRCUIT R-101 |
| | WHICH IS IN THE *MARKET AREA* ON PLANS. HOWEVER PLEASE |
| | SEE PANEL SCHEDULE FOR THIS SAME CIRCUIT, IT IS SHOWN |
| | AS A *SPARE CIRCUIT*? |
| | |
| | 13) NOTE: PLEASE SEE ELEVATOR MACHINE ROOM LIGHTING ON |
| | CIRCUIT R1-7. THIS CIRCUIT IS NOW CONNECTED TO OTHER |
| | LIGHTING FEEDING OTHER ROOMS SUCH AS STORAGE ROOMS, |
| | CORRIDOR, AND OTHER LOCATIONS. IN FACT THE OTHER |
| | LIGHTING CIRCUIT R-128 IS CONNECTED? |
| | IN ORIGINAL REVIEWS DATED 1/7/07 REVIEW NOTE #17 AND |
| | REVIEW DATED 4/5/2007 NOTE #19 GAVE CODE SECTIONS |
| | REQUIRING DEDICATED BRANCH CIRCUITS FOR ELEVATOR |
| | MACHINE ROOM. THE PLANS WERE REVISED TO SHOW THE |
| | LIGHTING IN THIS ROOM AS BEING CONNECTED TO THE |
| | DEDICATED CIRCUIT. A REVISION SUBMITTED IN MARCH OF |
| | 2008 DID NOT INDICATE ANY REVISION FOR THIS SAME ROOM |
| | YET THE LIGHTING WAS REVISED TO SHOW IT BEING CONNECTED |
| | TO OTHER LIGHTING. AS THE REVISION WAS NOT INDICATED IT |
| | WAS NOT PICKED UP BY THIS REVIEWER UNTIL THIS REVIEW. |
| | PLEASE CORRECT AND UPDATE CIRCUITING FOR THESE ITEMS |
| | PER 620. 22,23,24,25. ETC |
| | ** PLEASE BE AWARE OF ANY ITEMS NOT UNDER THE REVIEW OF |
| | THIS JURISDICTION WHICH IS UNDER THE INSPECTION OF THE |
| | STATE OF FLORIDA. ASME-17 CODE REQUIREMENTS. |
| | |
| | ** ELEVATOR PITS, ELEVATOR LANDINGS, ELEVATOR MACHINE |
| | ROOMS. CALL TO GO OVER AS THIS IS GIVEN FOR INFORMATION |
| | ONLY AND NOT PART OF THIS AHJ REVIEW. |
| | ASME-17 IS HOWEVER ADOPTED BY THE FLORIDA BUILDING CODE |
| | AS A REFERENCED STANDARD/CODE. |
| | THIS MAY OR MAY AFFECT FINAL ELEVATOR INSPECTION. |
| | |
| | 14) NOTE: PLEASE SEE SHEET E402, WALL PACK LIGHT |
| | FIXTURE. SHOWN TO M-48, HOWEVER M PANEL SCHEDULE ONLY |
| | GOES UP TO 42. |
| | THIS IS THE SAME AS LATEST REVISED E102 |
| | |
| | 15) NOTE: PLEASE SEE E402 IN THIS SAME AREA AS NOTED IN |
| | #14 ABOVE. HALLWAY LIGHTING NOTED TO R-145, HOWEVER |
| | PANEL SCHEDULE FOR R-145 INDICATES THIS CIRCUIT FOR |
| | PYLON SIGN. |
| | |
| | 16) NOTE: PLEASE REVISE VOLTAGE DROP CALCULATIONS. THE |
| | ACTUAL KNOWN VOLTAGE DROP SHOULD BE COMPLETE AT THIS |
| | TIME. THE CALCULATIONS ON SHEETE501 WERE NEVER UPDATED |
| | WHEN MOST OF THE FEEDERS WERE UPDATED TO ALUMINUM. |
| | FOR EXAMPLE: |
| | RTU-1, SHOWN AS 2/0 COPPER ON CALCULATIONS YET THE MDP |
| | SHOWS 4/0 ALUM. |
| | M-5 SHOWS 1/0 ON CALCULATIONS YET THE MDP SHOWS 3/0 |
| | ALUM. |
| | H-5 SHOWS 500MCM ON CALCULATIONS AS THERE WAS A |
| | SUBSTANTIAL DISTANCE HOWEVER THE MDP SCHEDULE HAS THESE |
| | AS 300MCM ALUM. THIS IS OF CONCERN BASED ON THE |
| | DISTANCE. PLEASE PROVIDE CALCULATION FOR FEEDER AS WELL |
| | AS FARTHEST BRANCH CIRCUIT ON THIS PANEL. |
| | FBC 13-413.1ABC.1, 13-413.1.ABC.1.1, 13-413.1.ABC.1.2 |
| | |
| | 17) NOTE: PLEASE UPDATE ALL LOADS ON E501 FOR HOUSE |
| | LOADS. THERE ARE SEVERAL WHICH ARE NOT ACCURATE. THE |
| | FOLLOWING ARE SOME EXAMPLES IN WHICH LOADS ARE MUCH |
| | MORE THAN SHOWN. |
| | |
| | FOR EXAMPLE: HOUSE LIGHTING LOADS FOR R5 IS SHOWN AS |
| | 1.4KW TOTAL. HOWEVER PLEASE SEE R-5 SCHEDULE AS |
| | CIRCUITS 157,158,159 ARE ALL GREATER THAN THE 1.4. |
| | |
| | FOR EXAMPLE: PLEASE SEE HOUSE LIGHTING LOADS ON PANEL |
| | R-4 WHICH INDICATES A TOTAL OF 1.4KW ONCE AGAIN. PLEASE |
| | SEE R-4 PANEL SCHEDULE AS CIRCUITS 148,150,152,163 AND |
| | 165 ARE MUCH HIGHER. IN FACT JUST THESE ALONE ARE |
| | 5.4KW. |
| | |
| | THE ABOVE MAY NOT SEEM TO BE MUCH HOWEVER PLEASE SEE |
| | R3, R2, R1. THESE ARE ALSO HIGHER ON PANEL SCHEDULES. |
| | |
| | FOR EXAMPLE: PLEASE SEE M1 HOUSE LIGHTING LOADS. THIS |
| | IS SHOWN AS *0*. THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE WHEN SHEET E 402 |
| | AS NOTED ABOVE HAS LIGHTING BEING SHOWN ON PLANS TO M-1 |
| | PANEL FOR EXTERIOR LIGHTS. |
| | |
| | 18) NOTE: PLEASE UPDATE ANY FIXTURE SCHEDULES SUCH AS |
| | LIGHTING WHICH HAS BEEN REVISED DURING THE PROJECT. ANY |
| | DECREASES IN WATTAGE DESIGN WOULD NOT REQUIRE UPDATED |
| | LIGHTING PERFORMANCE CALCULATIONS. ANY INCREASES WOULD |
| | REQUIRE UPDATED CALCULATIONS. |
| | FOR EXAMPLE: SITE LIGHTING FIXTURES ON OTHER LOCATION |
| | *HOMEWOOD SUITES * HAD FIXTURES INCREASE FROM 450WATT |
| | TO 1000WATT. THIS WOULD REQUIRE UPDATED CALCULATIONS. |
| | |
| | |
| | *** PER DIRECTOR PLANS ARE NO LONGER RELEASED. ONLY ONE |
| | SET MAY BE SIGNED OUT IF NEEDED. |
| | |
| | |
| | IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS; OR IF COMMENTS ARE NOT |
| | TYPED IN A CLEAR MANNER PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO |
| | CONTACT THIS REVIEWER. |
