| | 1ST REVIEW |
| | PLUMBING COMMENTS: DENIED |
| | |
| | A REVIEW OF MINIMUM PLUMBING FIXTURE REQUIREMENTS AS |
| | REQUIRED BY FBC ACC IS PART OF THE PLUMBING REVIEW |
| | PROCESS BUT IS TYPICALLY ADDRESSED ON THE ARCHITECTURAL |
| | PLANS. ANY COMMENTS CONCERNING THESE REQUIREMENTS OR |
| | OTHER ITEMS NOTED ON ARCHITECTURAL PLANS MUST BE |
| | SATISFACTORILY ADDRESSED PRIOR TO A PLUMBING REVIEW |
| | APPROVAL. |
| | |
| | 1.THE SEAT HEIGHT OF A WATER CLOSET ABOVE THE FINISH |
| | FLOOR SHALL BE 17 INCHES (430 MM) MINIMUM AND 19 INCHES |
| | (485 MM) MAXIMUM MEASURED TO THE TOP OF THE SEAT, NOT |
| | THE FIXTURE RIM. SEATS SHALL NOT BE SPRUNG TO RETURN TO |
| | A LIFTED POSITION PER FBC ACC 604.4. |
| | |
| | 2.PER WPB FBC 107.2.1, PROVIDE FINISH WALL SCHEDULE FOR |
| | REMODELED BATHROOM AND FOR JANITOR SINK CLOSET. REFER |
| | TO FBC PL 310.3 AND FBC 1210.2.2. WALLS AND PARTITIONS |
| | WITHIN 2 FEET (610 MM) OF SERVICE SINKS, URINALS AND |
| | WATER CLOSETS SHALL HAVE A SMOOTH, HARD, NONABSORBENT |
| | SURFACE, TO A HEIGHT OF NOT LESS THAN 4 FEET (1219 MM) |
| | ABOVE THE FLOOR, AND EXCEPT FOR STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS, |
| | THE MATERIALS USED IN SUCH WALLS SHALL BE OF A TYPE |
| | THAT IS NOT ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY MOISTURE. PLEASE NOTE |
| | THAT FBC 1210.2.2 STIPULATES THAT THE MATERIAL BE |
| | "HARD." THE INTENT OF THIS SECTION IS THAT THE |
| | SURROUNDING MATERIAL SHOULD NOT BE OF A TYPE THAT IS |
| | EASILY DAMAGED SUCH THAT THE MATERIAL COULD BECOME |
| | ABSORBENT AND THUS, NOT READILY CLEANABLE AND |
| | SANITIZED. PAINTED DRYWALL, EVEN WHERE COATED WITH |
| | HIGHLY DURABLE PAINTS, DOES NOT MEET THE INTENT OF |
| | SECTION 1210.2.2. THE TYPICAL MATERIALS USED FOR THIS |
| | APPLICATION ARE CERAMIC TILE, FIBERGLASS REINFORCED |
| | PLASTIC (FRP) PANELS, PHENOLIC PANELS, LAMINATED |
| | PLASTIC PANELS, PAINTED STEEL AND STAINLESS STEEL. |
| | |
| | 3.PER WPB FBC 107.2.1, PROVIDE PIPE HANGER DETAIL WITH |
| | A NOTE STATING, "HORIZONTAL PIPE SHALL BE SUPPORTED IN |
| | ACCORDANCE WITH FBC PL TABLE 308.5." |
| | |
| | 4.PER FBC PL 909.1, PROVIDE A VENT FOR THE WATER |
| | CLOSET. PLEASE NOTE THAT IF PROVIDING A WET VENT FOR |
| | THE WATER CLOSET, PER FBC PL 912.1, ONLY THE LAVATORY |
| | MAY BE INSTALLED ON THE WET VENT. IF INDIVIDUALLY VENT |
| | IN ACCORDANCE WITH FBC PL 910.1. THE VENT MUST RISE |
| | VERTICALLY ABOVE THE CENTERLINE OF THE DRAIN TO A POINT |
| | 6 INCHES ABOVE THE FLOOD LEVEL RIM OF THE WATER CLOSET |
| | PER FBC PL 905.3 AND 905.4. |
| | |
| | 5.RE: P0.1/WATER HEATER DETAIL: PER WPB FBC 107.2.1, |
| | PROVIDE THE FOLLOWING |
| | ?A) SPECIFICATION FOR THE EXPANSION VALVE (LEAD FREE) |
| | ?B) DIRECTION FOR EXPANSION VALVE DISCHARGE INCLUDING |
| | TERMINATION. |
| | ?C) SPECIFIC DIRECTION FOR RELIEF VALVE DISCHARGE AND |
| | PAN DRAIN (INCLUDING TERMINATION); COMPLY WITH FBC PL |
| | 504.6(1-14) AND 504.7.2. PLEASE NOTE THAT A WASTE |
| | RECEPTOR BY DEFINITION (FBC PL SECTION 202) IS A FLOOR |
| | SINK, STANDPIPE, HUB DRAIN OR FLOOR DRAIN THAT RECEIVES |
| | THE DISCHARGE OF ONE OR MORE INDIRECT WASTE PIPES. A |
| | MOP BASIN DOES NOT FIT THIS DESCRIPTION. |
| | |
| | 6.IT IS NOTED THAT THE HOT WATER TO THE BREAK ROOM SINK |
| | HAS AN ISOLATION VALVE IN THE LINE. THIS IS A |
| | RECIRCULATED LINE WHICH WILL NOT FUNCTION IF THE |
| | ISOLATION VALVE IS CLOSED. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE |
| | REQUIREMENT FOR A FULL OPEN VALVE AS NOTED IN FBC PL |
| | 606.1(5) IS NOT APPLICABLE AS WPB BUILDING FOLLOWS THE |
| | INTERPRETATION OF IBC PLUMBING COMMENTARY 606.1(5) |
| | WHICH STATES A WATER PIPE EXTENDING VERTICALLY THROUGH |
| | ONE OR MORE FLOORS AND CONVEYING WATER VERTICALLY |
| | DOWNWARD IS CONSIDERED A DOWN-FEED. VALVES AT THE TOP |
| | OF DOWN-FEEDS ARE HELPFUL FOR SERVICING MULTI-STORY |
| | BUILDING SO THAT ONLY SMALL AREAS OF THE BUILDING WILL |
| | BE WITHOUT WATER TO FACILITATE REPAIRS IN ONE AREA. |
| | |
| | 7.PER WPB FBC 107.2.1, INDICATE HOW THE PLUMBING FOR |
| | THE TOILET ROOM THAT IS NOT BEING REMODELED IS |
| | INTEGRATED WITH THE NEW WORK. |
| | ?A) DOES EXISTING SANITARY TIE INTO NEW SANITARY |
| | (INDICATE POINTS OF CONNECTION) OR THE OTHER WAY AROUND |
| | OR SEPARATE TO BUILDING SEWER |
| | ?B) DOES EXISTING WATER (HOT AND COLD) CONNECT TO NEW |
| | (INDICATE POINTS OF CONNECTION) OR THE OTHER WAY AROUND |
| | OR SEPARATE TO WATER MAIN. |
| | ?C) EXISTING BACKFLOW PREVENTER, NEW BACKFLOW |
| | PREVENTER? PROVIDE NOTE. SPECIFY AND PROVIDE DETAIL IF |
| | APPLICABLE |
