| | ** DENIED 2ND REVIEW** |
| | |
| | |
| | 1) NOTE: PLEASE SEE THE LETTER SUBMITTED FOR THE |
| | BUILDING NOT TO BE OCCUPIED UNDER THE LOSS OF |
| | NORMAL/MAIN POWER IS TO BE REVISED. THE LETTER STATES |
| | THE FACILITY WILL NOT OPERATE HOWEVER THE LETTER NEEDS |
| | TO STATE THE BUILDING WILL NOT BE OCCUPIED BY ANY |
| | PERSONNEL. THE LETTER(S) NEED TO BE ORIGINAL AND |
| | NOTARIZED. PLEASE SEE FS 117.05 FOR NOTARIES. |
| | NFPA-101 7.8, 7.9 |
| | |
| | 2) NOTE: THE PREVIOUS REVIEW REQUESTED THE REQUIRED |
| | ENERGY CALCULATIONS TO BE SUBMITTED. AS THEY WERE NOT |
| | SUBMITTED ON THE FIRST REVIEW THEY COULD NOT BE |
| | REVIEWED. PLEASE SEE THE ENERGY CALCULATIONS AND THE |
| | INPUT DATA REPORT NEED TO COORDINATE WITH THE PLANS. |
| | THE INPUT DATA REPORT WILL BE NOTED BELOW AS IDR. |
| | TWO SEPARATE CALCULATIONS WERE SUBMITTED. THE |
| | *CERTIFICATIONS* SHEETS NEED TO BE COMPLETED WITH THE |
| | SIGNATURE, DATE AND SEAL FROM THE RESPONSIBLE DESIGNER |
| | OF RECORD. THE COVER SHEET WAS SIGNED AND SEALED. |
| | EXAMPLES OF SOME INCONSISTENCIES OF THE SUBMITTED |
| | CALCULATIONS AND THE IDR WILL BE NOTED. |
| | |
| | FOR EXAMPLE: PLEASE SEE THE SQUARE FOOTAGE OF THE |
| | CALCULATION COVER SHEET SHOWS A TOTAL OF 7022 SQ FT |
| | TOTAL OF CONDITIONED AND UNCONDITIONED SPACE. THIS IS |
| | NOT POSSIBLE AS THE SQUARE FOOTAGE SHOWN ON A001CR1 |
| | SHOWS NUMBERS FAR GREATER. THE SUBMITTED METHOD *A* IS |
| | FOR WHOLE BUILDING. |
| | |
| | FOR EXAMPLE: PLEASE SEE THAT NOT ALL EXTERIOR LIGHTS ON |
| | PLANS ARE IN THE IDR> ONE FIXTURE TYPE ALONE WOULD BE |
| | THE S-7. THIS IS A 70W FIXTURE BASE DON THE FIXTURE |
| | LEGEND AND THERE ARE NO 70W FIXTURES ON THE IDR FOR |
| | EXTERIOR LIGHTING. ** THESE ARE NOT EXEMPT EVEN IF FOR |
| | THE SIGN** PLEASE SEE THE FBC CHAPTER 13 IN ORDER TO |
| | FALL UNDER EXCEPTIONS FOR THESE NOT TO BE |
| | INCLUDED.13-415.2.ABC.1.3 |
| | ** PLEASE SEE SHEET E123CR1 DOES NOT LIST THESE |
| | FIXTURES AS PART OF THE CONTROLS EVEN AS THE SITE PLANS |
| | CALL FOR SLP-25. |
| | |
| | FOR EXAMPLE: THE FIXTURE S2 IS A 400W FIXTURE HOWEVER |
| | THE IDR SHOWS 800W. IT WAS ASSUMED THAT EACH POLE WHICH |
| | CONTAINS TWO FIXTURES WERE COUNTED AS ONE AND THIS IS |
| | WHY THE IDR SHOWS 800W WHICH ACCOUNTS FOR BOTH |
| | FIXTURES. HOWEVER AS THE IDR SHOWS A TOTAL OF 6-800W |
| | FIXTURES, WHAT ABOUT THE FIXTURES ON THE POLES WHICH |
| | INDICATES ONLY ONE S2 FIXTURE? |
| | THIS WAS NOT ACCOUNTED FOR IN THE IDR. |
| | |
| | FOR EXAMPLE: THE IDR INDICATES ALL * UNCOVERED PARKING |
| | AREAS* AND THESE ASSOCIATED LIGHT FIXTURES. WHAT ABOUT |
| | ALL OF THE OTHER FIXTURES WHICH ARE EXTERIOR FIXTURES |
| | ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE BUILDING? BASED ON THE IDR, THE |
| | LIGHTING PLANS AND THE FIXTURE LEGEND NONE OF THESE |
| | FIXTURES WERE INCLUDED. |
| | SEE E FIXTURE ALONE WHICH IS AN EXTERIOR WALL PACK. |
| | |
| | FOR EXAMPLE: PLEASE SEE THE INTERIOR LIGHT FIXTURES AS |
| | THERE ARE SEVERAL FIXTURES ON THE PLANS WHICH ARE NOT |
| | IN THE IDR. ONE OF THESE ALONE WOULD BE THE TYPE *A* |
| | FIXTURE. |
| | |
| | ****** THESE ARE SOME EXAMPLES ONLY OF ITEMS ON THE |
| | ELECTRICAL PLANS WHICH ARE NOT COORDINATED WITH THE IDR |
| | AND THE SUBMITTED ENERGY CALCULATIONS. ALL AREAS, |
| | TYPES, WATTAGES ETC NEED TO MEET THE MINIMUMS. |
| | PLEASE SEE 13-415.2.ABC.1.1, .1.2 AND .1.3. |
| | ******* |
| | |
| | 3) NOTE: PLEASE BE MORE SPECIFIC TO THE TYPE OF |
| | OCCUPANCY SENSOR DEVICES. THE SYMBOL LEGEND DOES NOT |
| | EXPAND ON DEVICES FOR AREAS SUCH AS EGRESS PATHS WHICH |
| | ARE NOW ADDED TO PLANS. |
| | PLEASE INDICATE THE FAIL SAFE OPERATION FOR THESE |
| | DEVICES AS REQUIRED PER FBC 1006.1.2, NFPA-101 |
| | 7.8.1.2.2 |
| | DEVICES IN THE FIRE PUMP ROOM, MAIN ELECTRICAL ROOM AND |
| | ELEVATOR EQUIPMENT ROOM ALSO NEED TO BE *FAIL SAFE ON* |
| | OPERATION ON OCCUPANCY SENSING DEVICES. |
| | PLEASE BE SURE THE SYMBOL LEGEND INDICATES THE TYPE AND |
| | MAXIMUM TIME. |
| | |
| | 4) NOTE: PLEASE SEE THAT THE PREVIOUS REVIEW REQUESTED |
| | INFORMATION ON THE FIRE PUMP, CONTROLLER ETC. THE |
| | SUBMITTED PACKAGE DOES CONTAIN SHOP DRAWINGS/PRODUCT |
| | APPROVALS WHICH DO CONTAIN THE INFORMATION HOWEVER SOME |
| | OF THE SHEETS FOR THE FIRE PUMP ARE VERY FAINT AND NOT |
| | READABLE. |
| | PLEASE ALSO SHOW ON RISER, PLANS, SCHEDULE(S) WHERE AND |
| | HOW THE JOCKEY PUMP IS BEING FED. COULD NOT LOCATE THIS |
| | ON THE RISER ETC. SHEET E105CR1 INDICATES CIRCUITING TO |
| | LP2, THIS IS A LIFE SAFETY SYSTEM, PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY |
| | THIS IS NOT ON THE GENERATOR. |
| | PLEASE SEE SAME SHEET E105CR1 WHICH DRAWING NOTE #44 |
| | INDICATES A 10HP FIRE PUMP. THIS SEEMS TO BE A |
| | MISPRINT? |
| | PLEASE BE SURE TO SEE NFPA-20 CHAPTERS 6 AND 7 AND ALSO |
| | SEE NFPA-70 695.6.C.1, 695.5 A, B. |
| | |
| | 5) NOTE: PLEASE SEE THE SHEET E120C WHICH STILL SHOWS |
| | THE PREVIOUS RISER WHICH INDICATED THE NUMEROUS MAINS |
| | AND OTHER ITEMS FROM PREVIOUS REVIEW WHICH HAVE NOW |
| | BEEN REVISED. |
| | PLEASE COORDINATE PLANS/SHEETS. |
| | THE PREVIOUS NOTES GAVE SOME EXAMPLES OF COORDINATION |
| | NEEDED. |
| | EXAMPLE: PLEASE SEE E119C WHICH NOTES 3,4 AND 5 |
| | INDICATE TWO PANELS AND A TRANSFORMER WHICH IS NOT ON |
| | THE PRIMARY RISER SHEET. THERE ARE NO PANEL SCHEDULES |
| | FOR THESE TWO PANELS ON THE SHEETS WITH THE OTHER PANEL |
| | SCHEDULES AND THE 112.5 KVA TRANSFORMER IS NOT LISTED |
| | ON EITHER OF THE TWO TRANSFORMER SCHEDULES ON SHEET |
| | E107CR1 YET THIS IS NOTED ON SHEET E120C. PLEASE |
| | EXPLAIN THE WORK SHOWN ON THESE OTHER SHEETS. ARE THESE |
| | PERMITTED UNDER THIS SAME PERMIT OR SCOPE OF WORK? |
| | NEC 230,240, 250, 215.5, 450ETC |
| | FBC 106.1.1 FOR CLARITY AND COORDINATION OF PLANS. |

| | |
| | 7) NOTE: PLEASE SEE 13-415.1.ABC.1.1,.1.2, AND .1.3. |
| | THE OVER RIDES INDICATED ARE NOTED ON PLANS WITH NOTES |
| | FOR LABELS AND PHONETIC LETTERING HOWEVER PLEASE SEE |
| | SECTIONS NOTED. THE CODE REQUIRES THE OCCUPANT TO SEE |
| | ALL LIGHTING WHICH IS BEING OVER RIDDEN OR MEET THE |
| | EXCEPTION WHICH IS NOT ONLY DETAILED SIGNAGE FOR ALL |
| | AREAS BEING OVER RIDDEN BUT ALSO FOR REQUIRED *PILOT |
| | LIGHTS* OR * INDICATOR LIGHTS* OF SOME KIND. |
| | |
| | 8) NOTE: PLEASE SEE NFPA-101 7.8 AND 7.9 OF PREVIOUS |
| | NOTES WITH RESPECT TO EGRESS LIGHTING LEVELS UNDER |
| | NORMAL AND EMERGENCY CONDITIONS. |
| | SOME LEVELS SHOWN ARE INDICATING LEVELS OF AVERAGE |
| | BELOW THE 10FT CANDLES UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS. THIS |
| | LEVEL OF LIGHTING SHOULD BE FIGURED FROM THE STAIR |
| | AREAS ONLY AND NOT FIGURING IN OTHER AREAS OF AVERAGE. |
| | IF THERE ARE FIXTURES WHICH CONTRIBUTE TO THE LIGHTING |
| | LEVELS THEN PLEASE CALL TO GO OVER CONTRIBUTIONS. THE |
| | RESPONSE LETTER MENTIONS SOME STAIRS ARE NOT EGRESS |
| | LOCATIONS USED FOR EXITING. |
| | PLEASE SEE THE LIFE SAFETY CODE AS THE LIGHTING LEVEL |
| | DOES APPLY TO EGRESS PATHS FOR ALL NOT ONLY THE GENERAL |
| | PUBLIC. |
| | PLEASE SEE NFPA-101 7.10.8.3,.3.1 AND .3.2 WHICH |
| | REQUIRES SIGNAGE FOR ANY DOOR WHICH IS NOT AN EXIT DOOR |
| | TO BE LABELED AS SUCH. PLEASE SEE SECTIONS FOR MINIMUM |
| | SIZE AND WORDING. |

| | EQUIPMENT GROUNDING FROM FPL TRANSFORMER TO THE FIRST |
| | MEANS OF DISCONNECT WHICH IS NOT PERMITTED. THE |
| | RESPONSE MENTION FIRE PUMP CALCULATIONS PROVIDED AND |
| | THE MISINTERPRETATION OF THE CODE WITH RESPECT TO THE |
| | EQUIPMENT GROUNDING CONDUCTOR. |
| | 250.24C REQUIRES THE *GROUNDED* CONDUCTOR TO BE BROUGHT |
| | TO THE FIRST MEANS OF DISCONNECT. AS THE CODE REQUIRES |
| | BINDING OF THE GROUNDING CONDUCTOR AT THE FIRST MEANS |
| | OF DISCONNECT IF AN *EQUIPMENT GROUNDING* CONDUCTOR IS |
| | IN THE SAME CONDUIT THIS WOULD CREATE OBJECTIONABLE |
| | CURRENTS PER 250.6. |
| | ** PLEASE CALL TO GO OVER AS THERE MUST BE A LOSS IN |
| | COMMUNICATION. |
| | ** RESPONSE ALSO MENTIONS THE PLANS/RISER WAS REVISED |
| | HOWEVER THE PLANS/RISER STILL INDICATES THE SAME. |
