| | |
| | 1) THE 3RD REVIEW WAS COMPLETED ON 4/19/2021 WITH |
| | REVISION # 3. THERE HAS BEEN NO CHANGES MADE TO THE |
| | PLAN SINCE THE LAST CONVERSATION WITH TODD KENNY. THE |
| | SHEET PROPOSED CONDITIONS IN THE DETAIL TYPICAL |
| | NON-BEARING WALL SECTION AT THE BOTTOM OF THE DETAIL |
| | LIST THE PROPOSED UNDERLAYMENT AS PROFLEX 90. PLEASE BE |
| | AWARE THERE IS A PROFLEX PRODUCT NAMED PROFLEX SUPER |
| | SIM 90. THE OTHER ISSUE IS THAT THE DESIGNER OF RECORD |
| | HAS NOT LISTED THE FINISH FLOOR MATERIAL, IT IS STATED |
| | AS TBD (TO BE DETERMINED). THE INFORMATION ON THE PLANS |
| | HAS TO BE SPECIFIC FOR CODE COMPLIANCE. THEN AT THE END |
| | OF THE NOTE IT STATES OR AN EQUAL SOUND ATTENUATION |
| | MATERIAL. THERE CAN BE NO ALTERNATIVES. ONCE THE FLOOR |
| | FINISHES ARE PICKED AND UNDERLAYMENT IS KNOWN THAT IS |
| | WHEN YOU RESUBMIT. AFTER PERMIT ISSUANCE IF THERE IS A |
| | CHANGE IN EITHER THE FINISH FLOOR MATERIAL OR |
| | UNDERLAYMENT THEN THAT IS CONSIDERED A REVISION. |
