| 2008-05-04 15:34:45 | ** DENIED 4TH REVIEW ** |
| | |
| | ** PLEASE SEE SOME ITEMS FROM PREVIOUS REVIEW ARE STILL |
| | IN NEED OF ADDRESSING. |
| | |
| | 1) NOTE:PLEASE SEE THE LIFE SAFETY CODE NFPA-101 |
| | 7.8.1.3 AND 7.9.2. |
| | PLEASE SEE THE PREVIOUS REVIEWS REQUESTED THE LIGHTING |
| | LEVELS FOR NORMAL AND EMERGENCY LEVELS FOR STAIRS WHICH |
| | WERE USED FOR REQUIRED EGRESS PATHS. THE LEVELS ARE NOW |
| | SHOWN FOR THE NEW REVISED INTERIOR EGRESS STAIRS |
| | HOWEVER THE LIGHTING LEVELS UNDER NORMAL ARE NOT |
| | SHOWN. |
| | PLEASE SEE THE EXTERIOR STAIRS ARE NOT SHOWING A |
| | FIXTURE WHICH IS BATTERY BACK UP. THE PLANS MENTIONS |
| | THE LIGHTS ARE FLOODS HOWEVER THESE WHICH ARE |
| | IDENTIFIED AS *ES* FIXTURES ARE NOT ON THE FIXTURE |
| | LEGEND. |
| | PLEASE SEE 700.12F FOR REQUIRED BATTERY BACK UP. |
| | PLEASE SEE THE NEXT COMMENT AS THE LIGHTING CONTROLS ON |
| | PLANS CLEARLY SHOW A SINGLE POLE SWITCH HOWEVER THE |
| | PANEL SCHEDULE MENTIONS TO PLACE THESE LIGHTS ON |
| | PHOTO-SENSOR. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE WHEN THESE ARE |
| | BATTERY BACK UP UNLESS THE SPECIFIC FIXTURE IS SHOWN |
| | WITH THIRD LEG TO *PERMANENT HOT*. |
| | PARKING LOT LIGHTS, |
| | LANDSCAPE LIGHTS, |
| | SCONCE LIGHTS, |
| | FLOOD LIGHTS, ETC ETC. |
| | |
| | 2) NOTE: PLEASE SEE 13-415.2, 13-415.2.ABC.1., .1.2 AND |
| | .1.3. |
| | HOW CAN THE CALCULATIONS BE VERIFIED FOR COMPLIANCE |
| | WHEN NOT ALL LIGHT FIXTURES ARE SHOWN ON THE FIXTURES |
| | LEGEND? THIS IS NOTED ABOVE FOR FLOOD FIXTURES *ES* AND |
| | FIXTURES NOTED AS *SW*. |
| | PLEASE COMPLETE LIGHTING PERFORMANCE CALCULATIONS. |
| | |
| | *** IMPORTANT, PLEASE BE SURE THE WATTAGE FIGURED INTO |
| | THE CALCULATIONS IS BASED ON THE MAXIMUM FIXTURE |
| | WATTAGE, NOT THE WATTAGE OF THE LIGHT BULB. THE CODE |
| | REQUIRES THE FIXTURE VA RATING. |
| | |
| | ** THE ABOVE FIXTURES AS NOTED ARE NOT AN EXHAUSTED |
| | LIST OF POSSIBLE FIXTURES WHICH ARE NOT INCLUDED IN |
| | CALCULATIONS PER CODE. THESE ARE NOTED AS A BENEFIT. |
| | |
| | 3) NOTE: PLEASE SEE 13-415.1.ABC.1.4 WHICH REQUIRES TWO |
| | PERMITTED METHOD OF CONTROLS FOR OUTSIDE LIGHTING |
| | INCLUDING SIGNS. |
| | PANEL SCHEDULES MAKE SOME NOTES TO TIME CLOCKS AND |
| | PHOTO-SENSORS HOWEVER PLANS DO NOT GIVE DETAILS FOR |
| | CODE COMPLIANCE. PLANS SHOW NO DETAIL FOR TC OR PS. |
| | PLANS STILL ALSO SHOW STANDARD SINGLE POLE SWITCHES FOR |
| | MANY OF THE OUTSIDE LIGHTS. |
| | PLEASE KNOW THE ONLY TIME CLOCK PERMITTED IS AN |
| | ASTRONOMICAL TIME CLOCK AND REQUIRES A MINIMUM OF 10HRS |
| | BATTERY BACK UP FOR PROGRAMMING. |
| | PLEASE SEE ANOTHER EXAMPLE IS REAR DOOR FIXTURE TO |
| | CIRCUIT *A-36* WHICH CLEARLY DOES NOT EVEN INDICATE ANY |
| | NOTE FOR OTHER CONTROLS EXCEPT A SINGLE POLE SWITCH. |
| | PLEASE KNOW THE MINIMUM REQUIRED BY CODE IS THE INTENT |
| | TO TURN OFF LIGHTING DURING DAYLIGHTS HOURS IN THE EVEN |
| | OF HUMAN FAILURE TO TURN LIGHTING OFF. THE REASON FOR |
| | AN ASTRONOMICAL TIME CLOCK IS THAT IT WILL KEEP UP WITH |
| | DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIMES AND WILL NOT CONTINUALLY NEED TO |
| | BE RE-SET ETC. IN THE EVENT OF POWER FAILURE THE |
| | REQUIRED BACK UP WILL RETAIN PROGRAMMING SO LIGHTS WILL |
| | NOT COME ON DURING THE DAY. THIS IS THE REASON FOR |
| | LIGHTING CONTROLS. |
| | MAY NOT USE A STANDARD SINGLE POLE SWITCH AS THE OVER |
| | RIDE WITHOUT HAVING AUTOMATED SHUT OFF AT DAYLIGHT. |
| | |

| | ** THIS OFFICE EXPRESSES THAT IF THERE ARE ANY |
| | COMMENTS, QUESTIONS OR CLARIFICATION NEEDED TO PLEASE |
| | DO NOT HESITATE IN CONTACTING THIS OFFICE. |

| | |
| | ** IMPORTANT** |
| | ONCE AUDIT/REVIEWS ARE COMPLETE AND PLANS ARE PICKED UP |
| | FOR CORRECTIONS, PLEASE BE SURE TO COMPLETELY REMOVE |
| | ALL OLD/VOIDED SHEETS AND ONLY INSERT NEW REVISED |
| | SHEETS INTO TWO COMPLETE SETS FOR REVIEW AND STAMPING. |
| | DO NOT LEAVE ANY OLD/VOIDED SHEETS IN SETS. |
| | PLEASE DO NOT ATTACH SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS TO PLANS. ANY |
| | ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION SUCH AS PRODUCT APPROVALS, |
| | SPEC/CUT SHEETS, CALCULATIONS ETC SHOULD BE PLACED INTO |
| | TWO SETS/FOLDERS/BINDERS ETC. |
| | PLEASE KNOW ONLY ONE SET OF THE OLD/VOIDED SHEETS |
| | SHOULD BE SUBMITTED FOR REFERENCE. |
| | THIS WILL HELP IN THE AUDIT PROCESS AND AVOID ANY |
| | DELAYS. |
