| | ACTION: DENIED |
| | 1) SHEET A-1: |
| | 1A) PLEASE NOTE THE CODE REFERENCE TO THE |
| | FBC-RESIDENTIAL PER R101.2 (R-3) WOULD BE A REFERENCE |
| | TO A SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING NOT A MULTI-FAMILY |
| | APARTMENT BUILDING OR CONDOMINIUM. PLEASE REFER TO THE |
| | 2020 FBC-BUILDING CODE SECTION 310.4. ON ALL SHEETS |
| | PLEASE CORRECT YOUR CODE SECTIONS TO THE 2020 |
| | FBC-BUILDING THE 7TH EDITION AND APPROPRIATE CODE |
| | SECTIONS WITHIN. |
| | |
| | 1B) THE DESIGNER OF RECORD ALSO MAKES REFERENCE TO THE |
| | EXISTING BUILDING CODE AND SECTION ON REPAIRS. THE |
| | DOLLAR VALUE FOR THE WORK UNDER THIS PERMIT IS |
| | $145,600.00 DOLLARS IN VALUE. THAT WOULD APPEAR TO BE |
| | MORE THAN JUST SIMPLE REPAIRS. THE PLANS ARE SILENT AS |
| | TO IF THERE IS ANY STRUCTURAL DAMAGE TO BEARING WALLS |
| | AND OR TO FLOOR FRAMING MEMBERS. THE REPLACEMENT VALUE |
| | FOR THIS APARTMENT FOR 656 SQ. FT. X $120.00 = |
| | $78,780.00 DOLLARS IN VALUE. PLEASE PROVIDE COMPLIANCE |
| | WITH SECTION 606.2.2.1 EVALUATION REPORT. THE PERMIT |
| | REPLACEMENT VALUE IS ALSO DOUBLE WHAT OUR 2020 ICC |
| | TABLES FOR NEW CONSTRUCTION ARE FOR TYPE VI |
| | CONSTRUCTION/ R2 OCCUPANCY. |
| | |
| | 1C) SHEET A-1 WALL KEYED NOTES LIST NOTE # 2 INTERIOR |
| | BEARING STUDS 2X4?S @ 16 O. C. W/ 5/8-INCH TYPE X GWB |
| | (1HR. RATED). PLEASE PROVIDE EITHER A UL OR GYPSUM |

| | |
| | 2) SHEET A2. PLEASE NOTE THE TERM CEILING RAFTERS |
| | REFERS TO SOLID WOOD FRAMING MEMBERS. WHEN THESE UNITS |
| | WERE BEING BUILT, ESPECIALLY WOOD FRAMED WALLS THE |
| | FLOOR FRAMING SYSTEM WAS NOT FLOOR JOIST (SOLID WOOD |
| | FRAMING) BUT OPEN WEB FLOOR TRUSSES. THERE IS A |
| | DIFFERENCE IN HOW FLOOR SYSTEMS ARE CONSTRUCTED. |
| | |
| | 2A) DETAIL # 3 ON SHEET A2 SHOWS A DOUBLE WALL SYSTEM |
| | COMMON AT TENANT SEPARATION WALLS WHERE THERE WOULD BE |
| | 3- OR 4-INCH PLUMBING PIPES. THE ISSUE WITH THIS DETAIL |
| | IS THERE IS NO FIRE STOPS OR FIRE BLOCKING IN THE |
| | DETAIL IN COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 718.2.3 OF THE 2020 |
| | FBC-BUILDING CODE. |
| | |
| | 2B) THE FLOOR PLAN DETAIL 1/ A-2 SHOWS HATCHED CEILING |

| | REQUIRED, ANCHOR TYPES NOR THE THICKNESS AND TYPE OF |
| | THE FINISHED CEILING MATERIAL. 107.2.1.2. ADDITIONAL |
| | INFORMATION IS REQUIRED. |
| | |
| | 2E) NOTE OF INTEREST. IF THE SOFFIT BETWEEN THE AIR |
| | HANDLER CLOSET AND THE DROPPED CEILING IN THE KITCHEN |
| | IS ELIMINATED THEN RADIANT DAMPERS ARE REQUIRED WHERE |
| | THE DUCT WORK GOES ABOVE THE FIRE RATED CEILING OR |
| | RATING THE AREA REQUIRED FOR THE DUCTWORK ABOVE THE |
| | FIRE RATED CEILING FROM THE REST OF THE AREA WITHIN THE |
| | FLOOR TRUSS ASSEMBLY, THIS INCLUDES THE PLYWOOD FLOOR |
| | DECK OF THE UNIT ABOVE. SECTION 420.3 OF THE 2020 |
| | FBC-B. |
| | |
| | 3) SHEET M101 SHOWS A DETAIL IN THE LOWER RIGHT HAND |
| | CORNER WHERE THERE IS NO RATED CEILING, JUST A DROPPED |
| | CEILING. THE OTHER ISSUE WITH MECHANICAL DUCTWORK WHEN |
| | GOING THROUGH THE FIRE RATED CEILING IS THE REQUIREMENT |
| | FOR LISTED CEILING RADIATION DAMPERS SEE SECTION |
| | 717.6.2 (2) OF THE 2020 FBC-BUILDING. |
