| 2018-01-17 11:52:46 | RESIDENTIAL (R3) REVISION FOURTH MECHANICAL REVIEW |
| | CHECKLIST. |
| | CODE: FBC 5TH EDITION (2014). |
| | |
| | NOTE: REVISION FEES APPLY ON EVERY RE-SUBMITTAL. |
| | |
| | |
| | ORIGINAL COMMENT: |
| | 1- A/C EQUIPMENT SIZING CALCULATIONS SUBMITTED: PROVIDE |
| | COMPLETE EQUIPMENT SIZING CALCULATIONS "BASED ON |
| | BUILDING LOADS FOR THE DIRECTIONAL ORIENTATION OF THE |
| | BUILDING" AS REQUIRED BY SEC. R403.6.1 FBC-ENERGY |
| | CONSERVATION, 5TH EDITION (2014). |
| | RESPONSE: REPEAT COMMENT. NOT ADDRESSED. ONLY THE |
| | SUMMARY PAGES WERE SUBMITTED. NEED THE COMPLETE |
| | EQUIPMENT SIZING CALCULATIONS WORKSHEETS. |
| | |
| | |
| | RESPONSE: |
| | SAME SUMMARY CALCULATIONS WERE RE-SUBMITTED AGAIN. NEED |
| | TO PROVIDE COMPLETE WORKSHEETS TO VERIFY HOW THE |
| | EQUIPMENT WAS SIZED. |
| | THIS WAS REQUIRED FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE MECHANICAL |
| | REVIEWS BECAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE THE ORIGINAL CALCULATIONS |
| | WERE DONE BASED ON THE BUILDING ORIENTATION WORST CASE |
| | SCENARIO. BY DOING THIS THE EQUIPMENT MAY BE |
| | OVER-SIZED. SEC. R403.6.1 FBC-ENERGY CONSERVATION, 5TH |
| | EDITION (2014) REQUIRES CALCULATIONS TO BE DONE ON THE |
| | ACTUAL ORIENTATION OF THE BUILDING AND DOESN'T ALLOW |
| | EQUIPMENT OVERSIZING. BASED ON THE CALCULATIONS |
| | SUBMITTED, THE TOTAL COOLING LOAD IS 32924. SEC. |
| | R403.6.1.1 ALLOWS NOT MORE THAN 1.15 TIMES EQUIPMENT |
| | SIZING GREATER THAN THE CALCULATED LOAD. THEREFORE, THE |
| | EQUIPMENT SIZE SHOULD BE 3 TON. NOT 3.5 TON AS SHOWN ON |
| | LOAD CALCULATIONS SUBMITTED. THIS ISSUE WAS NOT |
| | VERIFIED BEFORE, BECAUSE THE ORIGINAL REQUEST TO |
| | PROVIDE COMPLETE REPORT WAS NEVER ADDRESSED. |
