| | CH.1 AS AMENDED BY THE CITY OF WEST PALM BEACH |
| | |
| | NOTE: LOCATIONS ON PLANS RELATED TO THE FOLLOWING |
| | COMMENTS WERE MARKED ON ONE SET OF PLANS, WHEN |
| | PRACTICAL, TO HELP CLARIFY THE NATURE AND LOCATION OF |
| | THE COMMENTS. |
| | |
| | 1. M0-101: GENERAL NOTE 1(M) REFERENCES ASHRAE 62-01. |
| | AS OF DECEMBER 8,2006 THE CORRECT STANDARD IS ASHRAE |
| | 62.1-2004. FBC,M CH.15. PLEASE CORRECT. |
| | |
| | 2. M0-101: GENERAL NOTE 7 IS IN CONFLICT WITH |
| | CONDENSATE DRAIN TRAP DETAIL ON M4-101. IS TRAP TO BE |
| | AT STATIC +1" OR STATIC +2"? CONDENSATE DRAINS SHALL BE |
| | TRAPPED AS REQUIRED BY THE EQUIPMENT OR APPLIANCE |
| | MANUFACTURER. FBC,M 307.2.4 |
| | |
| | 3. M0-101: HVAC LEGEND SHOWS AN "OPTION" FOR FIRE |
| | DAMPERS. FIRE DAMPER EXCEPTIONS HAVE CHANGED AND THE "5 |
| | FOOT RULE" NO LONGER APPLIES. SEE FBC,M 607.5 FOR |
| | REQUIREMENTS. THE UPDATED EXCEPTIONS DO NOT APPLY TO |
| | 2-HOUR ASSEMBLIES AS ARE INDICATED ON LIFE SAFETY PLAN. |
| | ALSO, PLANS SHALL CLEARLY INDICATE WHERE FIRE DAMPERS |
| | ARE TO BE INSTALLED PER FBC,M 607.8. PLEASE REMOVE |
| | "OPTIONAL" NOTES FROM PLANS AND INSTEAD SHOW ON PLANS |
| | WHERE FIRE DAMPERS ARE REQUIRED AND TO BE INSTALLED. |
| | ALSO SEE FBC 106.1.1. |
| | |
| | 4. M0-102: ASHRAE 62-2001 IS NOT CORRECT. SEE COMMENT |
| | #1. |
| | |
| | 5. M0-102: AH1-AH4 AND AH7, PLEASE PROVIDE MISSING |
| | INFORMATION ON SCHEDULES REGARDING ACTUAL REQUIRED |
| | QUANTITIES (CFM/PERSON OR CFM/SQ FT WITH TOTAL FOR EACH |
| | SPACE) OF OUTDOOR AIR, EVEN IF THE SYSTEM IS DESIGNED |
| | TO SUPPLY FAR IN EXCESS OF THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENT. THE |
| | SCHEDULES, AS SHOWN, DO OT CONTAIN ACCURATE |
| | INFORMATION. EXAMPLE: AH7 IN LOBBY 301, SCHEDULE |
| | INDICATES 8070 CFM OUTDOOR AIR IS REQUIRED. |
| | NOTE: 13-409.1.ABC.1.1 VENTILATION SYSTEMS SHALL BE |
| | DESIGNED TO BE CAPABLE OF REDUCING THE SUPPLY OF |
| | OUTDOOR AIR TO THE MINIMUM VENTILATION RATES REQUIRED |
| | BY SECTION 6.1.3 OF ASHRAE 62. SYSTEMS MAY BE DESIGNED |
| | TO SUPPLY OUTSIDE AIR QUANTITIES EXCEEDING MINIMUM |
| | LEVELS, BUT THEY SHALL BE CAPABLE OF OPERATING AT NO |
| | MORE THAN MINIMUM LEVELS THROUGH THE USE OF RETURN |
| | DUCTS, MANUALLY OR AUTOMATICALLY OPERATED CONTROL |
| | DAMPERS, FAN VOLUME CONTROLS, OR OTHER DEVICES. |
| | |
| | 6. PROVIDE ENERGY CALCULATIONS AND ALL REQUIRED |
| | ACCOMPANYING DOCUMENTATION. FBC 106.3.5, FBC |
| | 13-400.0.ABC, FBC 13-400.3.ABC.2 |

| | 9B-72. |
| | |
| | 8. M1-101: DUCT SIZES ARE MISSING ON TWO EXHAUST DROPS |
| | ON ERU 81. PLEASE CORRECT. |
| | |
| | 9. M1-101: ARE ERU81 AND ERU82 BOTH FEEDING AH7 THROUGH |
| | THE SAME DUCT? IT APPEARS THAT THE OA RISER DUCT FOR |
| | ERU82 IS INCORRECTLY MARKED AS THE RETURN/EXHAUST GRILL |
| | IN THE CEILING ABOVE THE RECEPTION DESK. |
| | |
| | 10. M1-101: ERU81 AND 82 ARE BOTH FEEDING AH7. |
| | ACCORDING TO CONTROL SEQUENCE DIAGRAM ON M5-101, AH AND |
| | ERU DESIGNATION NUMBERS SHOULD CORRELATE. IT IS UNCLEAR |
| | WHETHER AH7 AND AH* OR ERU81 AND ERU 82 ARE MISLABELED. |
| | CONTROL DIAGRAM IDENTIFIES AH8 AS A 100% OA UNIT IN ONE |
| | PLACE BUT INDICATES AH7 AS THE SAME IN ANOTHER. PLEASE |
| | COORDINATE ALL THESE ISSUES SO PLANS, SCHEDULES AND |
| | CONTROL DIAGRAMS CORRELATE. |
| | |
| | 11. M1-102: ON FLOOR PLANS, AH6 IS IN A MECHANICAL ROOM |
| | ON FIRST FLOOR AND AH8 IS IN A STORAGE ROOM. HOWEVER, |
