| | THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS ARE NUMBERED TO CORRESPOND WITH |
| | PREVIOUS REVIEW COMMENTS AS WELL AS DESIGNER'S WRITTEN |
| | RESPONSES FOR THE PURPOSE OF CONTINUITY. |
| | |
| | 1. OK |
| | |
| | 2. OK |
| | |
| | 3. OK EXCEPT, THE DUCTS CONNECTED TO VTU-3-5 DO NOT |
| | QUALIFY FOR THE EXCEPTION TO THE SMOKE DAMPER |
| | REQUIREMENTS UNDER FBCM 607.5.4(3) BECAUSE THE DUCT |
| | CONNECTION TO THE VTU IS SHOWN AS FLEX ACCORDING TO |
| | DETAIL 11 ON PG M-6.0.1. ALL DUCTS MUST BE MIN. 26 GAGE |
| | TO QUALIFY FOR EXCEPTION #3 UNDER THIS SECTION. |
| | |
| | 4 THROUGH 11: OK |
| | |
| | 12. ARCHITECT?S WRITTEN RESPONSE IS, ?SEE ENGINEER?S |
| | RESPONSES.? |
| | ENGINEER?S RESPONSE IS, ?ARCHITECT TO RESPOND.? NO |
| | INFORMATION COULD BE FOUND IN PLANS OR SUBMITTALS TO |
| | RESPOND TO THIS COMMENT. ALSO, NO INFORMATION COULD BE |
| | FOUND REGARDING ROOF MOUNTED HOODS. SHOW ROOF MOUNTED |
| | HOODS, OR ROOF VENTILATORS ARE DESIGNED, AND HOW THEY |
| | WILL BE INSTALLED TO RESIST ANTICIPATED WIND PRESSURES |
| | IN ACCORDANCE WITH FBCM 301.13. |
| | |
| | 13 THROUGH 17: OK |
| | |
| | 18. ENERGY CALCULATIONS: ALL AHU?S ARE LISTED IN THE |
| | INPUT DATA REPORT AS ?AIR COOLED PACKAGE? SYSTEMS. THIS |
| | IS NOT CORRECT. THE AIR HANDLERS ARE NOT PACKAGE |
| | SYSTEMS. PACKAGE SYSTEMS UTILIZE COMPRESSORS AND |
| | REFRIGERANT LINES, NOT CHILLED WATER COILS. AIR |
| | HANDLERS DO NOT HAVE THE SAME TYPE OF EFFICIENCY |
| | RATINGS AS PACKAGE SYSTEMS. THE END RESULT IS THAT THE |
| | ENERGY CALCULATIONS SHOW A TOTAL OF 400 TONS OF COOLING |
| | RATHER THAN THE 200 TONS SHOWN ON THE PLANS AND A |
| | CREDIT IS BEING RECEIVED FOR EFFICIENCY RATINGS WHICH |
| | ARE NOT APPLICABLE. THE ENERGY CALCULATIONS SHALL |
| | ACCURATELY REFLECT THE WORK SHOWN ON THE PLANS AND |
| | SPECIFICATIONS IN ACCORDANCE WITH FBCB 13-103.2. PLEASE |
| | CORRECT AND RESUBMIT. |
| | |
| | 19. OK |
| | |
| | NOTE: A CALL WAS PLACED TO TLC ENGINEERING AND A |
| | VOICEMAIL WAS LEFT FOR MR. WAMSLEY ON 5/30/08 IN AN |
| | EFFORT TO SEE IF ANY OF THESE OUTSTANDING ITEMS COULD |
| | BE ADDRESSED DURING THIS REVIEW. NO RETURN PHONE CALL |
| | WAS RECEIVED. |
