| | PLAN REVIEW RESULTS: DENIED. |
| | |
| | 1) SHEETS A-200 & P-200: THE BATHTUB IS BEING CONVERTED |
| | INTO A SHOWER. PLEASE CORRECT THE NOTES BY THE FLOOR |
| | PLANS INDICATING THE SHOWER IS BEING REPLACED IN THE |
| | SAME LOCATION- SECTION 107.2.1 WPB. |
| | |
| | 2) A-200 & P-200: THE PLAN INDICATES COMPLIANCE WITH |
| | FAIR HOUSING SPECIFICATION A FOR THE BATHTUB IN THE |
| | GUEST BATHROOM HOWEVER A SHOWER IS BEING INSTALLED. |
| | REFER TO PAGE 7.56 OF THE FAIR HOUSING DESIGN ACT |
| | MANUAL- "A 30-INCH X 48-INCH CLEAR FLOOR SPACE MUST BE |
| | PROVIDED AT SHOWER STALLS PARALLEL TO THE FIXTURE AND |
| | FLUSH WITH THE CONTROL WALL". THE PLAN IS INCORRECTLY |
| | SHOWING A CLEAR FLOOR SPACE FORWARD APPROACH WHICH IS |
| | NOT ACCEPTABLE. |
| | PLEASE NOTE: AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO MEETING THE |
| | GUIDELINES FOR THE BATHTUB/SHOWER CONVERSION, THE OWNER |
| | AND DESIGNER OF RECORD FOR THE PROPOSED PROJECT MAY |
| | PROVIDE A SIGNED AND NOTARIZED AFFIDAVIT WHICH WOULD |
| | INDICATE ACKNOWLEDGEMENT THAT THE PROPOSED DESIGN DOES |
| | NOT MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE FAIR HOUSING |
| | ACCESSIBILITY GUIDELINES, BUT WILL ALSO REQUIRE THE |
| | OWNER TO AGREE TO REVERT THE UNIT BACK TO COMPLIANCE AT |
| | TIME OF SALE IF SO REQUESTED BY THE BUYER. IF THIS |
| | OPTION IS CHOSEN, PLEASE SEND AN EMAIL TO [email protected] |
| | AND I WILL SEND A COPY OF THE FAIR HOUSING AFFIDAVIT. |
| | |
| | 3) PROVIDE NOTES OR DETAILS INDICATING THE NEW SHOWER |
| | AND TUB AND SHOWER VALVES WILL BE IN COMPLIANCE WITH |
| | SECTIONS 412.3 - BALANCED PRESSURE, THERMOSTATIC OR |

| | CONFROM TO THE REQUIRMENTS OF ASSE 1016/ASME |
| | A112.1016/CSA B125.16 OR ASME A112.18.1/CSA B125.1. |
| | |
| | 4) ADVISORIES: |
| | REFER TO SECTION 1002.1 FBC P: THE HORIZONTAL DISTANCE |
| | FROM THE CENTERLINE OF THE NEW SHOWER DRAIN OUTLET TO |
| | THE CENTERLINE OF THE INLET OF THE EXISTING TRAP SHALL |
| | NOT EXCEED 30". PLEASE PLACE A NOTE ON THE PLAN |
| | INDICATING COMPLIANCE. |
| | RELOCATING THE BATHTUB TRAIN OUTLETS WILL REQUIRE THE |
| | FLOOR TO BE X-RAYED TO IN ORDER TO LOCATE REINFORCING |
| | STEEL OR POST STRESSED FLOOR TENDONS. PLEASE PLACE A |
| | NOTE ON THE PLANS TO VERIFY COMPLIANCE WILL BE MET- |
| | SECTION 1-07.2.1 WPB. |
| | NEW DRAIN PIPE PENETRATIONS OF THE EXISTING SLAB WILL |
| | REQUIRE FIRESTOPPING TO SEAL THE ANNULAR SPACE AROUND |
| | THE PIPING. PROVIDE A UL TESTED AND APPROVED |
| | FIRESTOPPING ASSEMBLY DETAIL ON THE PLAN- SECTION 315.1 |
| | FBC P, AND SECTION 714.4.1.2 FBC B. |
| | |
| | WHEN RESUBMITTING, IT IS HELPFUL TO PROVIDE A RESPONSE |
| | LETTER ADDRESSING EACH ITEM ALONG WITH THE CITY |
| | RE-SUBMITTAL FORM. |
