| | 1) SHEET AE101 THE FLOOR PLAN INDICATES THE BREAK ROOM |
| | AS ROOM # 527. WITHIN THE BREAKROOM THERE IS A COUNTER |
| | AND BREAKROOM SINK. THE FLOOR PLAN DOES NOT SHOW |
| | COMPLIANCE WITH THE 2017 FBC-ACCESSIBILITY CODE FOR |
| | CLEAR FLOOR SPACE, EITHER A FRONT APPROACH OR SIDE |
| | APPROACH. |

| | AS ROOM # 527. THIS SHEET INDICATES DETAIL SHEET AE 501 |
| | DETAIL B SHOWS THE BREAK ROOM SINK & BASE CABINETS AT A |
| | HEIGHT OF 34 INCHES. A CUT SECTION THROUGH THE CABINET |
| | AE 501 DETAIL 2 SHOWS THERE IS NO SHELVING IN THIS |
| | CABINET BUT THERE IS A BOTTOM IN THE CABINET. ELEVATION |
| | B SHOWS A PAIR OF DOORS AT THE SINK WITH NO BOTTOM |
| | THERE IS A DISCREPANCY IN THE PLANS. IF A FRONT |

| | |
| | 3) SHEET AE101 THE FLOOR PLAN INDICATES THE RESTROOM |
| | 526. SHEET AE 701 THE FINISH SCHEDULE INDICATES THE |
| | RESTROOM WALLS ARE TO HAVE A PAINT GRADE FINISH ON THE |
| | WALLS. |
| | |
| | 2017 FBC-B 1210.2.2. WALLS & PARTITIONS. THIS COMMENT |
| | IS A RESULT OF THE BUILDING OFFICIAL INTERPRETATION ON |
| | 06/2020. IN RESTROOMS & SERVICE SINK AREAS EPOXY PAINT |
| | IS NO LONGER CONSIDERED A SMOOTH HARD, NON-ABSORBENT |
| | SURFACE. |
| | |
| | 3A) 1210.2.2 WALLS & PARTITIONS WITHIN 2 FEET OF |
| | SERVICE SINKS, URINALS, AND WATER CLOSETS SHALL HAVE A |
| | SMOOTH, HARD, NON-ABSORBENT SURFACE TO A HEIGHT OF NOT |
| | LESS THAN 4 FEET ABOVE THE FLOOR, EXCEPT FOR STRUCTURAL |

| | |
| | 4) IT WOULD APPEAR THERE IS NO WORK TO BE COMPLETED IN |
| | THE COMMON LOBBY. THIS WHERE THE DRINKING FOUNTAIN IS |
| | FOUND. IT WOULD APPEAR THE EXISTING DRINKING FOUNTAIN |
| | IS A SINGLE FOUNTAIN. SHEET AE 702 DOES SHOW A PROFILE |
| | OF WHAT APPEARS TO BE A SINGLE DRINKING FOUNTAIN. |
| | NEITHER THE DETAIL NOR SINGLE DRINKING FOUNTAIN COMPLY |
| | WITH TODAYS 2017 ACCESSIBILITY CODE SECTION. NO FEWER |
| | THAN TWO DRINKING FOUNTAINS SHALL BE PROVIDED. ONE |
| | DRINKING FOUNTAIN SHALL COMPLY WITH 602.1 THROUGH 602.6 |
| | AND ONE DRINKING FOUNTAIN SHALL COMPLY WITH 602.7. I DO |
| | NOT BELIEVE THIS CAN BE ENFORCED AT THIS TIME IF THERE |
| | IS NO WORK TO BE COMPLETE OUTSIDE OF THE TENANT SPACE, |
| | ( DRINKING FOUNTAIN IN THE COMMON AREAS), BUT THE |
| | DETAIL SHOULD EITHER BE REMOVED OR UPDATED FOR FUTURE |
| | USE. THE PLUMBING PLAN REVIEWER MAY HAVE MORE COMMENTS |
| | ON THIS MATTER. |
